High ‐resolution impedance manometry parameters in the evaluation of esophageal function of non‐obstructive dysphagia patients

Conclusion& InferencesThese novel pressure ‐impedance measures may aid in the evaluation of NOD patients by revealing abnormal motor patterns, which may explain symptom generation. Future studies are needed to evaluate which of these measures are worthy of calculation and to establish protocol settings that allow for their meaningful inter pretation.
