About this study

High resolution oesophageal manometry (HRM) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of oesophageal motility disorder.

Standard esophageal manometry has been replaced since 2000 by high resolution manometry. This one allows a more precise study with a spatio-temporal representation of the esophageal pressure values as well as an easier realization with in particular a better tolerance of the examination which is important in pediatrics.

Over a period of 10 years only a dozen studies were conducted in children. No study to date has evaluated the global place of MHR in current practice in children across all indications.

The indications that lead to the realization of a manometry in children are given by some experts but there is currently no clinical study to define the sensitivities, specificity and predictive values of clinical symptoms leading to the completion of this examination and endoscopic signs found upstream.

In addition, the link between certain underlying conditions and the manometric result has never been evaluated.

II / Objective: The objective of our study is to calculate the sensitivity, the specificity and the predictive values of each clinical and endoscopic sign according to the manometric result found and this by age group. The goal is to better define the predictive signs of the selected manometric diagnoses and therefore the indications to remember in the child.

III / Methodology:

Bi-centric retrospective collection of data on patient records in Marseille and Lille. Collection dates: from 2012 (beginning of high resolution manometry in Marseille and Lille) to December 2016.

The clinical and endoscopic signs selected will be decided a priori by an expert committee consisting of 2 adult gastroenterologists specializing in manometry, 1 pediatrician specialist in manometry, and 3 gastro-pediatricians.

Inclusion Criteria: All minor patients (<18 years old) referred for 1 st high-resolution manometry (or 2 nd or more examination if performed in the presence of a new symptom).

Number of subjects planned: all the patients who had a manometry (about 300 patients) over the given period

Read the detailed description

High resolution oesophageal manometry (HRM) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of oesophageal motility disorder.

Standard esophageal manometry has been replaced since 2000 by high resolution manometry. This one allows a more precise study with a spatio-temporal representation of the esophageal pressure values as well as an easier realization with in particular a better tolerance of the examination which is important in pediatrics.

Over a period of 10 years only a dozen studies were conducted in children. They focused on the technical aspects of the realization but especially of the interpretation of the examination or on specific pathologies well described: the atresia of the esophagus and achalasia. As a result, no study to date has evaluated the global place of MHR in current practice in children across all indications.

The indications that lead to the realization of a manometry in children are given by some experts but there is currently no clinical study to define the sensitivities, specificity and predictive values of clinical symptoms leading to the completion of this examination and endoscopic signs found upstream.

In addition, the link between certain underlying conditions and the manometric result has never been evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oesophageal Motility Disorder, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact MARINE JUZAUD, MD (MARINE.JUZAUD@ap-hm.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

number of clinical sign (time frame: one week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Sep 2018.
