Document: Twenty-one dogs with congenital idiopathic ME were included. For evaluation, each dog was placed in a Bailey chair and administered barium sulfate orally in three forms: liquid, slurry and within canned food meatballs. The amount of barium and food was determined by bodyweight and resting energy requirement. Contrast videofluoroscopy of the esophagus was obtained at baseline and every 5 minutes for up to 30 minutes or stopped sooner if esophageal content had cleared. Each patient received specific recommendations for management based on ECT of the different diet consistencies, frequency of regurgitation, presence of esophageal reflux, decreased gastric motility, and body condition score. The follow up communication was performed to assess compliance and response to management changes.
