Validation of body surface colonic mapping (BSCM) against high resolution colonic manometry for evaluation of colonic motility.

ABSTRACT: Abnormal cyclic motor pattern (CMP) activity is implicated in colonic dysfunction, but the only tool to evaluate CMP activity, high-resolution colonic manometry (HRCM), remains expensive and not widely accessible. This study aimed to validate body surface colonic mapping (BSCM) through direct correlation with HRCM. Synchronous meal-test recordings were performed in asymptomatic participants with intact colons. A signal processing method for BSCM was developed to detect CMPs. Quantitative temporal analysis was performed comparing the meal responses and motility indices (MI). Spatial heat maps were also compared. Post-study questionnaires evaluated participants' preference and comfort/distress experienced from either test. 11 participants were recruited and 7 had successful synchronous recordings (5 females/2 males; median age: 50 years [range 38-63]). The best-correlating MI temporal analyses achieved a high degree of agreement (median Pearson correlation coefficient (Rp) value: 0.69; range 0.47-0.77). HRCM and BSCM meal response start and end times (Rp = 0.998 and 0.83; both p < 0.05) and durations (Rp = 0.85; p = 0.03) were similar. Heat maps demonstrated good spatial agreement. BSCM is the first non-invasive method to be validated by demonstrating a direct spatio-temporal correlation to manometry in evaluating colonic motility.

Project description:BackgroundRecovery after colonic surgery is invariably delayed by disturbed gut motility. It is commonly assumed that colonic motility becomes quiescent after surgery, but this hypothesis has not been evaluated rigorously. This study quantified colonic motility through the early postoperative period using high-resolution colonic manometry.MethodsFibre-optic colonic manometry was performed continuously before, during and after surgery in the left colon and rectum of patients undergoing right hemicolectomy, and in healthy controls. Motor events were characterized by pattern, frequency, direction, velocity, amplitude and distance propagated.ResultsEight patients undergoing hemicolectomy and nine healthy controls were included in the study. Colonic motility became markedly hyperactive in all operated patients, consistently dominated by cyclic motor patterns. Onset of cyclic motor patterns began to a minor extent before operation, occurring with increasing intensity nearer the time of surgery; the mean(s.d.) active duration was 12(7) per cent over 3 h before operation and 43(17) per cent within 1 h before surgery (P = 0.024); in fasted controls it was 2(4) per cent (P < 0·001). After surgery, cyclic motor patterns increased markedly in extent and intensity, becoming nearly continuous (active duration 94(13) per cent; P < 0·001), with peak frequency 2-4 cycles per min in the sigmoid colon. This postoperative cyclic pattern was substantially more prominent than in non-operative controls, including in the fed state (active duration 27(20) per cent; P < 0·001), and also showed higher antegrade velocity (P < 0·001).ConclusionDistal gut motility becomes markedly hyperactive with colonic surgery, dominated by cyclic motor patterns. This hyperactivity likely represents a novel pathophysiological aspect of the surgical stress response. Hyperactive motility may contribute to gut dysfunction after surgery, potentially offering a new therapeutic target to enhance recovery.
