INTRODUCTION: We previously showed an association between chronic opioid use and esophageal motor dysfunction characterized by esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction, distal spasm, achalasia type III, Jackhammer esophagus. Assessment of response to multiple rapid swallows (MRS) during high-resolution manometry (HRM) enables detection impaired inhibition MRS. Healthy subjects respond MRS deglutitive followed augmented contraction with higher vigor than single swallows. Hypothesis: MRS,...
