With this test could be possible obtain a complete precordial pain resolution (GERD related) in a few seconds. Manoeuvre is completely painless. However how does it work is partially uncleared, and it can be applied only in symptomatic subjects.
Manoeuvre has been conceived, and tested on subject, 23 years old, BMI: 19,48, pressure: 80-120 mmhg, normal EKG, without any cardiac problem and with hiatal hernia type I ascertained by gastroscopy. Presenting, strong precordial pain in supine and prone position during night, not accompanied by burning retrosternal discomfort. The subject does not take medication for GERD, or any other type of drugs.
It was performed 3 time every session (with pause of 30'' between each prove) and for 5 consecutive days on symptomatic subject.
Therefore, I'm looking for researches who have possibility to provide data, in order to verify this hypothesis.
thanks for the description. did you have a photography of the position ?
how this manoeuver could differenciate GERD and angina for you?
Since manoeuvre seems to give complete relief from gastroesophageal chest pain related, (obviously, if sensibility and specificity will be assessed, and it wasn't a single case will be ascertained either); absence of relief from chest pain of cardiological nature, during the same manoeuvre, could establish differential diagnosis.
Since I had the opportunity to test the manoeuvre on two other subjects I provided to collect data on a single specific project.
