BACKGROUND: Oesophagitis has been shown by standard manometry to be associated with impaired oesophageal motility, but it remains unclear if this abnormality improves with healing of oesophagitis.
AIM: To determine if healing of oesophagitis improves oesophageal motility using solid bolus oesophageal transit scintigraphy and combined ambulatory oesophageal motility/pH monitoring.
METHODS: Patients with grade II-III oesophagitis underwent ambulatory motility/pH monitoring (using a Konigsberg catheter with four pressure transducers at 5 cm intervals) and solid bolus scintigraphy before and after treatment with omeprazole 20 mg b.d. for 8-14 weeks.
RESULTS: Three (11%) of the 28 patients failed to heal. Initial scintigraphy was abnormal in 18 (67%) of 27 patients (one refused scintigraphy). Twenty-three of the 25 healed patients had repeat studies showing no significant change in the number which were abnormal (16 (64%), P = 1.0) or the overall oesophageal transit time (P = 0.65). Due to intolerance of the technique, only 11 patients had ambulatory motility/pH performed both before and after healing, giving the study 90% power to detect a 5 mmHg increase in peristaltic amplitude. No significant improvement was seen in any motility or pH parameter after healing of oesophagitis.
CONCLUSION: Analysis of oesophageal motility showed no improvement in peristaltic activity after healing of oesophagitis, suggesting that the abnormal motility is either a primary disorder or an irreversible consequence of mucosal damage.
