Nocturnal 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 کاملNocturnal Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic disorder and the most common disease that affects the esophagus. A population-based study estimated that 20% of the U.S. adult population experiences GERDrelated symptoms at least once a week [1]. GERD can lead to esophageal mucosal injury in a subset of patients as well as bothersome symptoms, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation, which m...

متن کاملCombined pH-metry/impedance monitoring increases the diagnostic yield in patients with atypical gastroesophageal reflux symptoms.
BACKGROUND Globus sensations, hoarseness and chronic cough are suggested to be atypical manifestations of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). The aim of the study was to investigate whether combined pH-metry and multichannel intraluminal impedance monitoring increases the diagnostic yield. METHODS 41 patients with atypical GERD symptoms were included in the study. Globus sensation was the...

AIM This study was designed to investigate about findings of Impedance pH-monitoring in patients with atypical symptoms of GERD. BACKGROUND The routine treatment with proton pump inhibitors is not very effective in patients with atypical symptoms of Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). It may be due to non-acid reflux which cannot be monitored using common methods such as pH-metry. Theref...
