Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: • Complaints of dysphagia and/or reflux; • Age of 18 years or older; • High-resolution manometry as part of routine clinical practice; • Written informed consent;
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: • (Suspect) esophageal motility disorder for which treatment is scheduled between the two manometry measurements; • Use of medication which affect gastrointestinal motility that cannot be stopped (e.g. prokinetics or opioids); • Another explanation for their dysphagia complaint on previous upper endoscopy (within three years); • Previous gastroesophageal surgery (e.g. bariatrics or fundoplication); • Coeliac disease; • Insufficient Dutch or English language skills to understand information about the measurement.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study endpoint is the reproducibility of provocative tests during high-resolution manometry. The reproducibility is determined by concordance of normal and abnormal outcomes of each provocative test. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • Reproducibility of single wet swallows determined by concordance of normal and abnormal outcomes. • Agreement of outcome variables between first and second measurement within one test determined by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) • Change in diagnosis of esophageal motility disorder after second measurement • Agreement of different outcome variables between single wet swallows and provocative tests. | — |
