Defining lower esophageal sphincter physiomechanical states among esophageal motility disorders using functional lumen imaging probe panometry
Physiomechanical states of the LES can be determined via response to FLIP filling and emptying regimes. While passive shortening was the general response to FLIP emptying, auxotonic relaxation was observed in achalasia, which was disrupted by LES myotomy. Further investigation is warranted into the clinical impact on diagnosis and treatment of esophageal motility disorders.
