Paediatric gastro-oesophageal reflux: prognostic indicators from pH monitoring.
The original diagnostic 24 hour pH monitoring data in 57 children with gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) were retrospectively reviewed after a minimum of one year follow up. The tracings of children who responded to medical treatment were compared with those who failed to respond and required a fundoplication. Children with GOR secondary to oesophageal atresia/tracheo-oesophageal fistula and neur...
متن کاملAlkaline gastro-oesophageal reflux: dual probe pH monitoring.
Although the aetiology of Barrett's oesophagus or columnar line oesophagus (CLO), remains unknown, bile reflux has been implicated as a factor in its pathogenesis. This study aimed to detect alkaline reflux in gastro-oesophageal reflux patients using dual probe pH monitoring. Thirty patients with histologically diagnosed CLO, 15 age and sex matched patients with oesophagitis (grade 1-3), and 15...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of pH monitoring in gastro-oesophageal reflux.
One hundred and eleven children admitted with suspected gastro-oesophageal reflux were studied, with 24 hour oesophageal pH monitoring as the first line of investigation. Barium swallow examination, or oesophagoscopy, or both, were carried out only in children with abnormal pH, who subsequently had a trial of 1-12 months medical treatment. All patients were followed up for eight months to two y...
متن کاملOesophageal pH monitoring is of limited value in the diagnosis of "reflux-cough".
Reflux-cough is a diagnosis based on demonstrating both gastro-oesophageal reflux and a positive response to anti-reflux therapy. The authors sought to determine early and long-term response to therapy in patients with a "positive" 24 h oesophageal pH study, and identify any features which might predict response. Patients with chronic cough were recruited from July 1998 to July 2002. Those with...
متن کاملGastro-oesophageal reflux — initial experience with a radiotelemetry system for prolonged oesophageal pH monitoring
A radiotelemetry system has been used to monitor gastro-oesophageal reflux over a prolonged period in 27 asymptomatic control subjects and in 15 patients with reflux symptoms. In control subjects, the frequency of reflux episodes (pH < 5) ranged from 0.1 - 0.7 per hour of recording (median 0.36) by day, and from 0 - 1.0 per hour (median 0.12) by night. The duration of reflux (pH < 5) per hour o...
