A comparative study of 22-channel water-perfusion system and solid-state system with 36-sensors in esophageal manometery

Abstract: BackgroundTo compare the characteristics between 22-channel water-perfusion manometry (WPM) and solid-state manometry (SSM) with 36 sensors of the pressure measurements, as well as patients’ discomfort indices in nose and pharynx, the preparation and operation time of the manometry.Methods12 volunteers were included in the study. Each of the volunteers underwent esophageal manometry by both 22-channel water-perfusion catheter (WPC) and solid-state catheter (SSC) with 36 sensors in random order, and separated b… Show more

“…HRM was carried out using Starlet® (Star Medical Co., Ltd. Tokyo, Japan). The Starlet HRM system has a catheter with 36-channel solid-state sensors spaced at 1-cm intervals (Unisensor AG, Attikon, Switzerland) [15]. The outer diameter of the thinnest part of the catheter was 3.8 by 5.4 mm of each transducer site.…”

“…pHRM has the advantage of a more durable probe. Of late, 36-channel perfusion catheters have been developed, which obtain pressure profiles with improved quality and accuracy (37). However, perfusion catheter accuracy is inferior to that of sHRM in the study of the UES.…”
