Description of intervention(s) / exposure
We propose to assess the safety and effectiveness of esophageal dilation at the time of food bolus disimpaction in reducing the risk of recurrent FBO in a retrospective analysis of a prospective database from 2008 to 2017. We aim to compare patients who undergo concurrent esophageal dilation using Savary Gillard dilator catheters at the time of food bolus disimpaction and those who have elective esophageal dilation as an outpatient.
a) Participant requirement (no involvement, the following data will be collected from each case:
• Demographic data,
• Clinical presentations
• Underlying pathology
• Mucosal damage to the esophagus and larynx
• Complications after endoscopy such as aspiration, sore throat, GI bleeding.
• Hospital stay duration

b) the duration of observation/follow-up per participant (Up to 48 hours post-enrolment and 10 days post-enrolment)

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 322918 0
Safety of esophageal dilation assessed through medical records and hospital admissions records.
Timepoint [1] 322918 0
48 hours after procedure
Primary outcome [2] 326739 0
Safety, devoid of any procedure related complications assessed through hospital records and patient reporting.
Adverse events or Complications are defined as procedure related complications from esophageal dilation which are bleeding and perforation.
-Bleeding is categorized into (i)“minor bleeding”- transient bleeding that spontaneously resolved without requirement of blood transfusion or intervention to stop bleeding OR (ii) “major bleeding”- persistent bleeding leading to hemodynamic instability and requirement of blood transfusion and intervention to cease bleeding such as radiologic embolization or endoscopic hemostasis.
-Perforation is defined as iatrogenic esophageal mucosal tear with direct communication with mediastinum or peritoneum the after esophageal dilation evident on endoscopic view
Timepoint [2] 326739 0
48 hours after procedure
Secondary outcome [1] 380240 0
Effectiveness of esophageal dilation in reducing recurrent FBO will be defined as the ability of the endoscope to traverse the esophageal stenosis after dilation and ability to reduce the number of recurrent food bolus obstruction, this will be assessed through medical records and hospital admissions.
Timepoint [1] 380240 0
Within 48 hours of procedure
Secondary outcome [2] 392530 0
-Esophageal Structural abnormalities defined as obvious esophageal pathologies including peptic stricture, eosinophilic esophagitis and schatzki rings that is evident during endoscopy
Timepoint [2] 392530 0
Within 48 hours of procedure
Secondary outcome [3] 401808 0
Total endoscopy time, this will be assessed through data-linkage to medical records.

-Total endoscopy time is defined as the time when the first endoscopic dilator is inserted into the oral cavity to the time when the last dilator is removed from the oral cavity
Timepoint [3] 401808 0
Within 48 hours of procedure
