Background Baseline impedance measured with ambulatory impedance pH monitoring (MII‐
pH) and a mucosal impedance catheter detects gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) …

Esophageal baseline impedance (BI) acquired during esophageal contraction (contractile
segment impedance [CSI]) is proposed to improve BI accuracy in gastroesophageal reflux …

Methods Sixty participants with typical symptoms of GERD underwent high-resolution
esophageal manometry, 24-hour multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH monitoring …

Background & Aims Current diagnostic tests for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
are suboptimal and do not accurately and reliably measure chronicity of reflux. A minimally …

OBJECTIVES Impedance monitoring is a new diagnostic method for gastroesophageal
reflux disease (GERD) where multiple impedance electrode pairs are placed on a standard …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Intraluminal impedance monitoring has given new dimensions to
the diagnosis of reflux disease. However, there is no defined algorithm for evaluating …

To determine the relationship between baseline impedance levels and gastroesophageal
reflux, we retrospectively enrolled 110 patients (54 men and 56 female; mean age, 51±14 …

Background Impairment of esophageal mucosal integrity as assessed by low mean
nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) measured in the distal esophagus increases the …

OBJECTIVE Esophageal impedance measurement is a novel method for gastroesophageal
reflux monitoring. Reproducibility is an important aspect of every biomedical test. The aim of …

OBJECTIVES: Intraluminal baseline impedance levels are determined by the conductivity of
the esophageal wall and can be decreased in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) …
