Society: AGA

This session provides a deeper understanding of how and when to use our current state of the art tools for physiology testing. Audience members will appreciate the nuances of esophageal motility reading, when to order which pH test for reflux symptoms. This session will also focus on the currently identified esophageal motility disorders as per the Chicago Classification version 4.0. This will highlight potential therapeutic options for these disorders. Attendees will hear about non-achalasia motility disorders and focus on current studies that highlight treatment of Ineffective Esophageal Motility, Distal Esophageal Spasm, Achalasia, Esophagogastric Junction Outflow Obstruction, Absent Contractility, and Hypercontractile Esophagus.
