Prevalence and effects of gastro-oesophageal reflux during spirometry in subjects undergoing reflux assessment

Abstract: Variability during spirometry can persist despite control of technical and personal factors. We postulate spirometry induces gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR), which may cause variability and affect results of spirometry. Fifty-eight (58) subjects undergoing GOR investigation with oesophageal manometry and 24hr pH monitoring were recruited. Oesophageal dysmotility and GOR were assessed as part of clinical care. Subjects performed 2 sets of spirometry separated by a 10-minute rest period. The assessment of GOR du… Show more

“…These findings were validated using impedance fluid flow analysis. Notably, spirometry induced GER events were more pronounced in our current investigation than in our earlier study [ 2 ]. This discrepancy likely arises from enhanced sensitivity of impedance sensors, which can detect various types of reflux (acidic, weakly acidic, and non-acidic reflux), in contrast to the ambulatory pH probe exclusively capturing acidic reflux in our previous research.…”

“…While our study primarily focused on esophageal motility and its association with the severity of esophagitis, it is crucial to acknowledge that other factors, such as dietary habits, lifestyle choices, and concurrent medications, can also influence esophageal function [ 12 , 13 ]. Future research should adopt a more comprehensive approach, encompassing a broader range of potential contributing factors.…”

“…Nevertheless, the higher intensity of esophagitis was associated with a modest decrease in distal amplitude, suggesting its potential importance in determining the severity of esophagitis. However, conflicting results question the association between ineffective esophageal motility and the presence of esophagitis [11][12][13].…”
