Figure 7 | Example colonic high-resolution manometry. Colonic high-resolution manometry recordings in a healthy individual (part a) and a patient with slow-transit constipation (part b) are shown. Note the physiological increase in colonic contractility that occurs within minutes after the test meal. In the patient with slow-transit constipation, the frequency and amplitudes of colonic contractions are markedly reduced and the motor response to feeding is virtually absent.
