Introduction: The Chicago Classification of esophageal motility disorders is not designed to evaluate motor function in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)[1]. The aim of the study is to assess manometrical abnormalities in erosive GERD.

Aims and Methods: 127 patients (75 women, age 28–78 years) with esophagitis LA Grade B,C,D. Esophageal high resolution manometry (HRM), 24-h esophageal impedance-pH monitoring were performed in all patients after upper endoscopy.

Esophagogastric junction contractile integral (EGJ-CI) was calculated during 3 respiratory cycles using the distal contractile integral (DCI) box. The calculated ‘DCI’ was then divided by the duration of the 3 respiratory cycles [2].

Results: According to esophageal impedance-pH monitoring pathological acid exposure time (AET46%) [2] was detected only in 115 (90.5%) patients, so the remaining 12 (9.5%) were excluded from further evaluation. Among 115 GERDpatients HRM revealed ineffective esophageal motility (IEM) in 44 (38.3%), absent contractility in 6 (5.2%), fragmented peristalsis in 2 (1.7%), normal esophageal motility in 63 (54.8%) patients. Esophageal manometry also assessed esophagogastric junction (EGJ) morphology [2]: type I was detected in 71 (62%), type II in 24 (20.7%), type III (≤3 cm separation between the LES and CD) in 20 (17.3%) patients. Basal LES pressure (median (5th–95th percentile)) in GERD patients was 10.7 (4.4–15.3) mm Hg, median EGJ-CI was 21.3 (10.4–38.6) mm Hg. Among 44 patients with IEM multiple rapid swallows revealed contraction reserve (post-MRS contraction has greater vigor than the preceding test swallows) in 12 (27.3%) patients, while 6 patients (100%) with absent contractility demonstrated absent post-MRS contraction.

Conclusion: Manometrical abnormalities in GERD include low basal LES pressure and low EGJ-CI (in comparison to normal values) [3], hiatal hernia, esophageal body hypomotility, absence of contraction reserve.
