NCT ID NCT06918730

Summary

This study compares two standard methods used during a throat procedure called POEM, which treats swallowing disorders. It tests whether using water to inflate the throat causes less pain after the procedure than using carbon dioxide gas. Researchers will measure pain levels, medication needs, and overall success in 36 patients to see which approach leads to better comfort and recovery.
