Assessing the diagnostic yield of achalasia using provocative testing in high-resolution esophageal manometry: Serial diagnostic study.

Manometric findings remain unchanged when TIII achalasia is diagnosed with SWS. In patients with normal IRP, Type I, or Type II achalasia during SWS, provocative testing can alter achalasia phenotype or uncover achalasia where diagnosis is unclear. Further, it can reproduce symptoms. Such findings can personalize and guide effective therapeutic decisions.
