## Indications for use
The EndoFLIP® System is indicated for use in a clinical setting to measure pressure and dimensions in the esophagus, pylorus, and anal sphincters. It is intended to be used as an adjunct to other diagnostic methods as part of a comprehensive evaluation of patients with symptoms consistent with gastrointestinal motility disorders. The EF-325 series of catheters can make pressure and dimensional measurements in the esophagus, pylorus, and anal sphincters; whereas the BF-325 series and EF-825 catheters can make dimensional measurements in the esophagus, pylorus, and anal sphincters. The EF-620 catheter can make dimensional measurements in the esophagus. Other indications for use include: • To estimate the size of a stoma produced by a gastric band (all EndoFLIP® catheters) • For use as an adjunct to a bougie for measuring the size of a gastric sleeve created during bariatric surgery, where it is suitable for diameter measurements for 22 to 60Fr sleeves (EF-620 catheter)
