Summary
This study compares two different knives used during a procedure called POEM, which treats swallowing problems caused by tight esophagus muscles. The standard knife uses one type of electrical current, while the new knife uses a different type and may cause less pain after surgery. About 105 adults having POEM will be randomly assigned to one knife or the other, and their pain levels and procedure times will be compared.
