الملخص:Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, GERD is an important disease in Asia-Pacific region, as the load of GERD in the population increased. Our objective is to evaluate the manometric finding in erosive reflux oesophagitis among patients who attended Surgical Department HTAA. We also want to determine the correlation between different type of erosive oesophagitis and its manometric findings. It was a cross sectional study which involved 60 subjects of erosive oesophagitis since September 2012 until January 2014. Patients with reflux oesophagitis were required to fill up the Reflux Disease Specific Questionaire and subsequently underwent manometric evaluation. Descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation were applied using SPSS version 18.0. There was no correlation between the severity of Erosive Reflux Disease with the Lower Oesophageal Sphincter Pressure or oesophageal motility. However, there are positive Pearson correlation (r = + 0.54) between severity of Erosive Reflux Disease and velocity variables of oesophageal motility but it was not statistically significant. In conclusion, there was no significant correlation between the severity of Erosive Reflux Oesophagitis on the Lower Esophageal Sphincter pressure and the esophageal motility.
