Esophageal Transit Contraction and Perception of Transit After Swallows of Two Viscous Boluses

摘要

BackgroundThere have been results showing the influence of bolus viscosities and consistency on esophageal motility and transit. However, there is no description about the influence of two different viscous boluses on esophageal contractions, bolus transit and perception of transit. Our objective in this investigation was to evaluate the esophageal transit and contraction after swallows of two viscous boluses.
