Evaluation of the Accuracy of Computer Automated Analysis of Esophageal 24- hour Impedance pH Studies

Abstract

Background: Esophageal pH monitoring in conjunction with multichannel intraluminal impedance (MII-pH) is now considered the most accurate method for detection and characterization of gastro-esophageal reflux (GER), with higher sensitivity and specificity in detecting reflux than esophageal pH monitoring alone.
