Summary

Pressures measured by manometric solid-state catheters may differ according to the type of the catheter and specific anatomy and physiology of anorectum. The aim of the study is to establish the difference in recordings between 2 types of anorectal catheters used in pediatric patients and to validate the most appropriate way to diagnose of functional disorders.

Detailed description

Patients enrolled in study will be investigated by both types of anorectal catheters, first by anorectal high resolution flexible, thinner, solid-state catheter and after that with rigid, thicker, solid-state catheter. Both procedures will be undertaken during one session. There will be used standard protocol of the procedure that measures conventional manometric parameters (resting pressure, squeeze pressure, bear down manoeuver, thresholds of sensation and recto anal inhibitory reflex threshold.

Conditions

• Constipation
• Children
• Fecal Incontinence

Interventions
