Normal Values of Ambulatory 24-hour Oesophageal pH-impedance Monitoring in an Indian Cohort of Participants

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease)

In brief

This study aims to determine normal 24-hour pH-impedance monitoring values, including acid exposure time (AET), in healthy Indian adults. It will help improve GERD diagnosis in India by providing population-specific data. The study will also explore how diet, body position, and nighttime reflux affect acid exposure. Healthy volunteers aged 18 and above will be monitored for 24 hours.
