Overview
This in-person one-day workshop will provide a comprehensive overview of all the diagnostic strategies used to evaluate esophageal, gastric, colonic, and anorectal motility disorders. Motility experts will teach the standardized methods on how to perform, read, and interpret a variety of tests including esophageal motility (high-resolution impedance manometry [HRIM]), gastroesophageal reflux testing (48–96-hour Bravo, traditional [single and dual channel], and pH–impedance studies), endoFLIP system, wireless motility capsule (WMC), electrogastrography (EGG), anorectal manometry (ARM), and 3D endoanal ultrasound. Through lectures and hands-on experiences, attendees will gain expertise in how to adopt the standardized protocols for performing tests, gain confidence in reading and understanding motility tests, and use these tests to enhance the quality of care for their patients.
Intended Audience
This workshop is intended to benefit a wide range of clinical providers, including gastroenterologists and surgeons from academic and private practices, advanced practitioners, nurses, medical assistants, and technicians who are involved in adult and pediatric motility testing and clinical care of patients with motility disorders. It will be especially helpful to GI fellows interested in exposure to diagnostic motility testing and to allied health personnel. Pharmaceutical and device manufacturers involved in the field are also welcome. Register by February 10, 2023.
Outcomes/Desired Results
1. To learn the updated Chicago Classification for the interpretation and evaluation of esophageal disorders using high-resolution manometry and how to complement that with endoFLIP.
2. To learn about the assessment and evaluation of acid reflux based on currently available tests.
3. To gain exposure to the EGG tests and various options for gastric and bowel transit tests, as well as breath tests for the evaluation of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
4. To learn the London Protocol and Classification for the implementation and interpretation of high-resolution for the evaluation of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. advance therapies in fecal incontinence.
