Tests how two swallow tests relate in planned esophagus surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how well two types of swallow/esophagus testing match up when people are planning elective esophagus surgery. The results may help doctors choose the most useful tests before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for elective esophagus removal (esophagectomy)
- You do not have major ongoing heart disease
- You do not have major ongoing lung disease
- You do not have major ongoing liver disease
- Your blood clotting is normal (no coagulopathy)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study checks how well a swallowing test called high-resolution manometry works after partial anti-reflux surgery. It focuses on adults with certain abnormal esophagus muscle patterns to help doctors understand what to expect after the operation.
This study records measurements of how your esophagus (food tube) moves and how the swallowing pathway behaves. It also uses symptom scoring to see how the test results match your swallowing symptoms, which could help improve care for people with swallowing trouble.
This study looks for noninvasive ways to measure how well your esophagus is moving. It may help doctors better evaluate swallowing and esophagus movement without relying only on invasive testing.
This study tests a new sensor to check how healthy the lining of your esophagus is during a routine upper endoscopy. It may help researchers understand esophageal lining injury and how well it recovers over time.
This study uses a special thin tube with pressure sensors to measure how you swallow. It may help find the cause of your swallowing problems or reflux symptoms.
This study looks at how a device affects how the esophagus muscles squeeze and relax. It may help people better understand swallowing problems, even if their usual esophagus test looks normal.
