SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENDOSCOPIC MANOMETRY
20260114775 · 2026-04-30 ·

Systems and methods include techniques associated with endoscopic manometry. An inflatable structure may be inserted within a tissue structure and inflated or deflated to induce a physiological response for a patient. In operation, the physiological response may be induced while a patient is sedated, which may decrease physical and/or psychological pain to the patient.

SYSTEM FOR MEASURING CONTRACTIONS OF THE PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES OF A PATIENT, AND METHOD FOR MEASURING CONTRACTIONS OF THE PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES USING SUCH A SYSTEM
20260114774 · 2026-04-30 ·

System for measuring contractions of the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) of a patient, the system comprises a pelvic floor muscle probe configured to be positioned inside an internal canal of the patient, a data-processing module configured to compare a difference denoted T between a pressure measurement time Tp and a position measurement time Tm and to compare the difference T with a determined threshold value; in which the data-processing module is in communication with a notification device for notifying the patient that the synergy between the movement of the body and the contraction of the pelvic floor muscles is suboptimal when the difference between the pressure measurement time Tp and the position measurement time Tm is lower than or equal to the threshold value.
