Ambulatory esophageal pH monitoring: new directions.
pH testing remains a commonly used evaluative tool in clinical practice. However, the original tool that included a nasally placed pH catheter was plagued with a variety of shortcomings, primarily the effect of the procedure on patients' lifestyle and thus on reflux-provoking activities. The miniaturization of evaluative techniques in gastroenterology was the impetus for the development of the ...
متن کاملReproducibility of ambulatory oesophageal pH monitoring.
To evaluate the reproducibility of ambulatory 24 hour intraoesophageal pH monitoring, 20 patients were randomly selected to undergo two consecutive investigations. Fifteen patients were classified as either abnormal, or normal on both test days. The amount of acid reflux, expressed as percentage of time with oesophageal pH below 4.0 during the two 24 hour periods, showed 77% concordance. The up...
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 کاملEsophageal 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 کاملSudden death during ambulatory monitoring.
Three patients with ischaemic heart disease died suddenly while being monitored with an ambulatory tape recorder. Two had terminal ventricular fibrillation initiated by paired bidirectional ventricular ectopic beats against a background of scattered ectopic activity; both had had ventricular tachycardia during routine treadmill exercise testing in the week before death. The third patient develo...
