[Biofeedback and esophageal manometry. Preliminary note].
The biofeed-back technique is based on the concept of the voluntary control of visceral functions and derives from the clinical application of the theory of operative conditioning. After a brief mention of general concepts and the various application fields of biofeed-back, a personal proposal for the use of this technique in the treatment of oesophageal dysfunctions of psychosomatic origin with the aid of oesophageal manometry is put foward.
