Allocation: N/AIntervention Model: Single Group AssignmentIntervention Model Description: Normative values for the routine procedure of high-resolution anorectal manometry for Russian population has not been studied yet. Some factors allows to suggest that normative values may differ from those obtained in other countries. This pilot study is aimed to either support the null-hypothesis of the presence of the differences or decline it. It is expected to obtain primary data that could be used for further work and planning of the cohort studies. During the study, healthy volunteers are to be examined with a registered diagnostic tool (i.e. high-resolution anorectal manometry with water-perfused catheter). This diagnostic procedure is not intended as one for routine examination, therefore the study type is changed to the "interventional", though no pharmacological intervention or surgery is planned. The estimated sample size sufficient to reach the power of 80%, and type 1 error 0.05 was obtained with single-sample t-test of Statistica10 (StatSoft, USA)Masking: None (Open Label)Masking Description: No masking is possiblePrimary Purpose: Other

High-resolution anorectal manometry (HRAM) is a modern technique used to evaluate the function of the rectum and its sphincters. It is intended to measure the resting pressure in the anal canal, as well as pressure during voluntary contraction of the external anorectal sphincter and pelvic floor muscles and to evaluate reactions to the functional tests. Several studies have been performed to evaluate normative metrics of anorectal manometry to the moment, but most of them enrolled patients living in the US and countries of the Western Europe. Nutritional patterns, ethnic composition of the population and other factors may cause the differences in the mormative values of HRAM in different populations. Current study is organized to evaluate normative metrics of HRAM in a Russian healthy cohort.
