Peds ARM (0-12 Months)

This page includes preparation instructions for a Peds Anorectal Manometry ages 0-12 months.

Responsible Person:

A parent, legal guardian, or other responsible adult must come with the patient to check-in, stay during the visit, and take the patient home after the procedure. This person will also help with care and instructions afterward. The visit usually takes about 2 hours from check-in to discharge.

If a responsible adult does not come to the appointment, the procedure will need to be rescheduled.

We strongly recommend that the responsible adult be present at discharge to listen to instructions, ask questions, and take notes about follow-up care.

• Patients under 18: A parent or legal guardian must be present at check-in.
• If the legal guardian cannot stay in person, they must be available by phone during the procedure and at discharge
