Diagrammatic representation of the probe used. The probe incorporated a perfusion port, a bipolar electrode for electrical stimulation, and an inflatable balloon. Electrical stimuli and distensions (one minute duration) were randomly tested (at five minute intervals) during infusion of either saline, low fat, or high fat while measuring intraballoon pressures and perception on a 0-6 scale.
