Abstract:
:During a course of 10 biofeedback sessions in a single subject, the lower esophageal sphincter pressure measured with an open-tipped perfused catheter assembly showed significant and progressive increase with each session, until it reached normal levels. There was also a decrease in symptomatic reflux episodes, from three times daily to once every 2 weeks. Macroscopic esophagitis was detected by endoscopy before the first session, but was no longer evident in the endoscopic examination after biofeedback training. After the biofeedback training program, the subject was able to control his lower esophageal sphincter without biofeedback.
