Here, I and wer report the results of our studying about; 1. The length of esophagus and sphincters; 2. Resting pressure of upper sphincter, upper esophagus, mid-esophagus, lower esophagus and lower sphincter; 3. Pressure changes in swallowing at these points of esophagus; 4. Resting and swallowing pressure curves in these points in 50 normal Korean adults. In addition to these we wbserved pressure inversion point, slow and fast components of phasic pressure which are originating from respiration and heart beat. And we studied transportation time and speed of peristalsis. The speed of peristalsis is faster in the lower esophagus than in the upper. I can probalby be proud in the results of these study because these will become a standard criteria in the further evaluation of esophageal functional disturbances in such lesions as; Achalasia, Hiatal hernia, Esophageal canceer, Scleroderma, diverticula.
