The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing a transmucosal potential difference (PD) signal essentially being unaffected by intestinal motor activities. This is accomplished by reducing the PD signal based on time variations in the intraluminal pressure (IP) signal. The invention also relates to different applications of such a signal, such as measurement of the total peripheral resistance (TPR), detection of abnormalities in the enterical nervous system, detection of damages in the mucosal barrier.
L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil servant à générer un signal de différence de potentiel (DP) à travers la muqueuse, ledit signal n'étant pratiquement pas affecté par les activités motrices intestinales, et ce grâce à la réduction du signal DP sur la base des variations dans le temps du signal de pression intraluminale (PI). L'invention concerne également de différentes applications de ce signal telles que la mesure de la résistance périphérique globale, la détection d'anomalies dans le système nerveux entérique et la détection de lésions dans la barrière muqueuse.
