About this study
Official title: EvaluatIng Normal Values for traditionaL anorectaL fUnction paraMeters With aIr Charged aNd Solid State HRAM catheTErs ("ILLUMINATE" Study)
The research study will be conducted to obtain baseline, or "normative" information to compare an air charged HRAM catheter to traditional solid catheter measures using the IAPWG standardized testing protocol and London classification.
Read the detailed description
The primary purpose of this research study is to obtain normative datasets for traditional measures of anorectal function with an air charged HRAM catheter in healthy subjects using the IAPWG standardized testing protocol and London classification for anorectal manometry (ARM) measurement.
A secondary purpose is to qualitatively compare the performance of air charged and solid state HRAM catheters in determining values for traditional measures of anorectal function in a subset of study subjects using the IAPWG standardized testing protocol and London classification for ARM measurement.

- Healthy
- Being tested

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Air Charged Catheter ARM ProcedureDiagnostic test
Normative datasets for traditional measures of anorectal function with an air charged HRAM catheter will be collected in healthy subjects using the IAPWG standardized testing protocol and London classification for ARM measurement.
Solid State Catheter ARM ProcedureDiagnostic test
Normative datasets for traditional measures of anorectal function with a solid state HRAM catheter will be collected in some healthy subjects using the IAPWG standardized testing protocol and London classification for ARM measurement for comparison to the air charged catheter.
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Measurement Performance of Air Charged Catheter in cm
Functional anal canal length, cm, as measured by the air charged catheter
Measured: Day 1
Secondary outcomes (1)
Measurement Performance of Solid State Catheter in cm
Functional anal canal length, cm, as measured by a solid state catheter
Measured: Day 1

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Measurement Performance of Air Charged Catheter in cm (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 May 2026.
