Device typeGastrointestinal motility manometric catheter, non-electronic: A non-electrical flexible tube intended to be inserted through the nose or rectum into the gastrointestinal (GI) tract for measuring pressure to assess peristaltic motility in the GI tract (e.g., oesophagus, stomach) or rectal musculature and anal sphincter functions, typically in the evaluation of GI disorders [e.g., gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD), faecal incontinence]. It functions via infusion of water (water-perfused catheter) or insufflation of air/gas (air-charged catheter) into the catheter, whereby pressure signals are conducted to proximally-connected external pressure transducers in/connected to a dedicated analysis system. This is a single-use device.
