Esophageal pH and Combined Impedance-pH Monitoring in Children
Esophageal pH monitoring is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease because of the normal ranges across the pediatric age range. However, this method can only detect acid reflux. Multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) monitoring has recently been used for the detection of bolus reflux in infants and children. This method allows for the detectio...
متن کاملA Review of Esophageal pH Monitoring for the Diagnosis of Gastroesophageal Reflux in Children
Received January 5, 2000 Abstract Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is a common disease found in early childhood. It commonly presents with vomiting and feeding problems. However, it may involve other systems like respiratory system, growth failure. Twenty-four hours esophageal pH monitoring is a useful technique in diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux. Results of 24 hours esophageal pH monitoring ...
متن کاملHow to Interpret Esophageal Impedance pH Monitoring
Esophageal impedance pH monitoring provides quantitative data on esophageal acid exposure and has the ability to correlate the symptoms with acid exposure events. The nomenclature for the reflux patterns detected in impedance pH monitoring as well as the normal values have been determined. Data interpretation is similar to 24-hour pH monitoring, ie, searching for an increase in the number of re...
متن کاملNocturnal Gastroesophageal Reflux Revisited by Impedance-pH Monitoring
BACKGROUND/AIMS Impedance-pH monitoring allows detailed characterization of gastroesophageal reflux and esophageal activity associated with reflux. We assessed the characteristics of nocturnal reflux and esophageal activity preceding and following reflux. METHODS Impedance-pH tracings from 11 healthy subjects and 76 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease off acid-suppressive therapy we...
متن کاملPrinciples of Combined Esophageal Impedance-ph Monitoring in Children: Indications, Benefits and Limitations
The standard test for suspected gastroesophageal refl ux is pH monitoring. However, the majority of gastroesophageal refl ux episodes in infants and children are nonacidic (pH > 4) and extraesophageal symptoms apparently can be caused by both acidic (pH < 4) and nonacidic refl ux. In order to overcome these aspects, a new technique has been developed and placed under scrutiny in the past twenty...
