  1. 1. Oesophageal manometry : design and evaluation of measurement systems

    Författare :Per Ask; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to investigate the technical characteristics of oesophageal manometry systems and to improve the performance of these systems.The investigation of the characteristics of oesophageal manometry systems with non-perfused catheters or catheters perfused with a flow generated by a syringe pump did not show properties which fullfilled the requirements for accurate pressure measurements.

  3. 3. Success and failure of conventional and laparoscopic fundoplication in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease

    Författare :Thomas Franzén; Folke Johnsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The outcome of antireflux surgery in a single institution during two decades is presented.101 consecutive patients operated with open partial2 70° fundoplication and crural repair during 1982-1989 were prospectively analysed. All stages ofpreoperative oesophagitis were represented. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to compare the effects of laparoscopic versus open antireflux surgery in a randomized clinical trial focusing the patients' subjective and objective outcome postoperatively, from a short-term and a long-term perspective. A further aim was to describe GORD patients' experiences of illness and surgical treatment and if possible to find striking characteristics relating to laparoscopic or open surgery. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Endoscopic diagnosis of reflux-oesophagitis with special regard to computerized image processing

    Författare :Hanne Witt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :endoscopy; reflux esophagitis; computerized image processing; mucosalhemoglobin content; chromoscopy;

    Sammanfattning : The advent of the video endoscope is an important step in endoscope technology and it is of vital importance in the linkage between endoscopy and computers. The Charge Coupled Device ( CCD ) of an electric video endoscope transforms the light reflected from the mucosa into electric signals. LÄS MER
