Op‐15 Features of Aerophagia Measured With Multichannel Ph‐impedance in Children

Abstract

PPV of right colon are 66.7%, 63.6% and 20%; left colon are 16.7%, 72.7% and 7.69%; and rectosigmoid colon are 29.4%, 68.8% and 66.7%, respectively. Conclusions: Colonic transit study seemed to have satisfied posttest probability to diagnose total colonic abnormality. However, for segmental CTT, this test might be invalid and the consideration to use as predictor of segmental abnormality was not recommended. Introduction:The therapeutic effect of domperidone on abdominal pain-predominant functional gastrointestinal diseases (AP-FGIDs) was assessed on children in 5-12 year age group at

BSPGHAN Motility Working Group position statement: paediatric multichannel intraluminal pH impedance monitoring—indications, methods and interpretation

“…MII-pH is useful in assessing extra-oesophageal symptoms such as cough5 and respiratory symptoms6; it can be performed on or off therapy and on children fed via continuous or bolus feed. It is also useful in diagnosing children with aerophagia 7 8. The British National Institute for Health and Care Excellence in their GORD in children: diagnosis and management9 suggested performing MII-pH in infant and children with

recurrent aspiration pneumonia

unexplained apnoeas

unexplained non-epileptic seizure-like events

unexplained upper airway inflammation

dental erosion associated with neurodisability

frequent otitis media

a possible need for fundoplication

a suspected diagnosis of Sandifer's syndrome
