Abstract

High-resolution antropyloroduodenal manometry (HR-ADM) allows precise characterization of antral, pyloric, and duodenal motility, although its association with gastric emptying (GE) has been poorly investigated. Concurrent HR-ADM with GE measurement showed a lower frequency of antral postprandial contractions and an increased frequency of postprandial pylorospasms in patients with delayed GE. HR-ADM could, therefore, be useful in the future to better select patients for treatments targeting the pylorus.
