Classic techniques like videofluoroscopy, stationary manometry, and ambulatory 24 h pH-metry are routinely used in the clinic to study patients with dysphagia, chest pain and reflux-related symptoms.

The current standard method for detection of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in infants and children is pH monitoring (pH probe). The addition of impedance probe measurements may or may not increase the ...

Nat Clin Pract Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2006;3(1):2-3. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is highly prevalent in Western society. Presenting symptoms are often categorized as typical (heartburn and ...

Approximately 50% of patients with GERD-like symptoms have no evidence of acid reflux on endoscopy and 24 h pH testing. New research shows that multichannel intraluminal impedance (MII) pH testing ...
