    Summary

    Varying the position of the functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) device in the pylorus significantly impacts measurements of pyloric function. Standardizing FLIP protocols is crucial for accurate assessment of gastroparesis and related conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Medical Devices
    • Diagnostic Technology

    Background:

    • The functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) is utilized to evaluate pyloric dysfunction in gastroparesis patients.
    • Understanding the impact of FLIP catheter positioning is essential for accurate pyloric assessments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate how different functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) catheter positions influence pyloric measurements.
    • To determine the effect of FLIP balloon placement on pressure, cross-sectional area, and distensibility indices.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective enrollment of patients with chronic unexplained nausea and vomiting or gastroparesis undergoing endoscopy.
    • FLIP balloon positioned in proximal, middle, and distal pyloric locations, measuring cross-sectional area (CSA), pressure (P), and distensibility indices (DI) at various volumes.
    • Fluoroscopic imaging confirmed balloon geometry; data analyzed using FLIP Analytic and MATLAB software.

    Main Results:

    • Twenty-two patients (4 CUNV, 18 gastroparesis) were studied.
    • Proximal FLIP positions yielded significantly higher pressures compared to middle and distal positions.
    • Higher CSA measurements were observed in proximal and middle positions (30-40 mL) versus distal.
    • Lower distensibility indices (DI) were noted in proximal positions (40-50 mL) compared to middle and distal positions.

    Conclusions:

    • FLIP balloon positioning within the pylorus directly alters balloon geometry, significantly affecting pressure, CSA, and DI measurements.
    • Standardization of pyloric FLIP protocols and potential adjustments to balloon design are necessary for reliable application of this technology.
    • Accurate pyloric function assessment requires careful consideration of FLIP device placement.
