Summary

Do patients with eosinophilic esophagitis have baseline increased esophageal mucosal impedance? And will treatment that reverses esophageal eosinophilia in patients, correct abnormalities in mucosal impedance?

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Adults ages 18-90 undergoing clinically indicated upper endoscopy
  • Patients with EoE, defined as dysphagia with histologic finding of greater than or equal to 15 eosinophils per high powered field on esophageal biopsy despite at least 6 weeks of twice daily proton pump inhibitor therapy
  • Patients undergoing clinically indicated upper endoscopy for indications other than dysphagia or Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with normal appearing esophageal mucosa.

Exclusion criteria

  • Medical conditions such as severe heart or lung disease that preclude safe performance of endoscopy
  • Patients with conditions known to be associated with esophageal eosinophilia, including Crohn's disease, Churg-Strauss, achalasia, and hypereosinophilic syndrome
  • Inability to read due to: Blindness, cognitive dysfunction, or English language illiteracy
