pH Fluctuations versus Reflux Episodes in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: Their Optimal Thresholds and Significance in Diagnosis

Abstract: In physiological and pathological conditions, pH monitoring in the esophagus shows small variations as well as more pronounced deflections. However, only the latter are traditionally taken into account in 24-hour pH monitoring analysis. The present study was designed to establish optimal thresholds of pH fluctuations versus reflux episodes in separating physiological and pathological gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and to evaluate their significance in the diagnosis. Twenty-four-hour intraesophageal pH monitorin… Show more
