The role of combined 24‐h multichannel intraluminal impedance‐pH monitoring in the evaluation of children with gastrointestinal symptoms suggesting gastro‐esophageal reflux disease

Background The aim of this study was to determine the role of multichannel intraluminal impedance‐pH (pH‐MII) monitoring in the diagnosis of gastro‐esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children who presented with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in comparison with the results of pH‐metry alone and endo...

Zusammenfassung:	Background The aim of this study was to determine the role of multichannel intraluminal impedance‐pH (pH‐MII) monitoring in the diagnosis of gastro‐esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children who presented with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in comparison with the results of pH‐metry alone and endoscopy. Methods All children who underwent pH‐MII monitoring due to GI symptoms, suggestive of GERD, from October 2013 to October 2015 in Children's Hospital Zagreb, were retrospectively enrolled in the study. The cohort was divided into three groups according to age – group 1: children
