Oesophageal manometry is a specific type of manometry that focuses on evaluating the function of the esophagus, the muscular tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach. This test measures the pressure and pattern of muscle contractions (peristalsis) that occur in the esophagus during swallowing. A thin, flexible catheter with pressure sensors is gently passed through the nose or mouth and into the esophagus. The patient is then asked to swallow small amounts of water, and the sensors record the pressure changes at different points along the esophagus. Oesophageal manometry is a key diagnostic tool for individuals experiencing swallowing difficulties (dysphagia), chest pain that may be related to oesophageal spasms, heartburn or regurgitation suggestive of GERD, and for evaluating the function of the lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS), the muscle that prevents stomach acid from backing up into the esophagus. It can help identify conditions such as achalasia (where the LOS fails to relax properly), oesophageal spasms (uncoordinated muscle contractions), and ineffective oesophageal motility (weak or absent peristalsis). The information obtained from oesophageal manometry is crucial for guiding treatment decisions, which may include lifestyle modifications, medication, endoscopic procedures like dilatation, or surgery.
