Manometry is a diagnostic medical test that measures pressure within specific parts of the digestive tract. It involves inserting a thin, flexible catheter containing pressure sensors into the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, or rectum. As the muscles in these organs contract and relax to move food along, the sensors record the pressure changes. This information is then transmitted to a computer, which generates a detailed report of the muscle activity. Manometry helps doctors understand how well these muscles are functioning and can identify abnormalities in their contractions. This test is valuable in diagnosing various gastrointestinal disorders characterized by motility issues, such as difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), chest pain not related to the heart, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastroparesis (delayed stomach emptying), constipation, and fecal incontinence. By providing a real-time assessment of muscle function, manometry can help pinpoint the underlying cause of these symptoms when other imaging tests might appear normal. The procedure itself is generally well-tolerated, although some patients may experience mild discomfort or a feeling of pressure during the catheter insertion. The results of manometry play a crucial role in guiding treatment strategies, which may include medication, dietary changes, biofeedback therapy, or surgery, depending on the specific diagnosis.
