Measurement of gastrointestinal pH profiles in normal ambulant human subjects.
Gastrointestinal (GI) pH has been measured in 66 normal subjects using a pH sensitive radiotelemetry capsule passing freely through the gastrointestinal tract. Signals were recorded with a portable solid state receiver and recording system, enabling unconstrained measurements with normal ambulatory activities for up to 48 h during normal GI transit. Capsule position in the gut was monitored by ...
متن کاملAmbulatory monitoring of oesophageal pH in reflux oesophagitis using a portable radiotelemetry system.
Gastro-oesophageal reflux has been assessed in 10 symptomatic patients and 10 asymptomatic normal subjects during a study period of 24 hours at work and in the home using a newly developed pH sensitive radiotelemetry capsule and a portable receiving system. Oesophageal pH was continuously monitored by the tethered radiotelemetry capsule and recorded with a portable receiver and a 24-hour casset...
متن کاملGastrointestinal intraluminal pH in normal subjects and those with colorectal adenoma or carcinoma.
Recent evidence suggests that the production of colorectal carcinogens is facilitated when the pH of the colonic contents is alkaline. It follows that the colonic intraluminal pH of patients with colorectal neoplasms should be higher than in normal subjects. Gastrointestinal pH has been measured in 30 patients with colorectal cancer and 37 patients with benign colorectal adenomas (using a pH se...
متن کاملDoes age influence normal gastro-oesophageal reflux?
Prolonged oesophageal pH monitoring is being used increasingly to detect abnormal gastro-oesophageal reflux. To assess the influence of age on normal reflux patterns, a group of 13 young asymptomatic subjects (mean age 22 years) was compared with a group of 14 middle aged asymptomatic subjects (mean age 49 years). An ambulatory system using a radiotelemetry capsule and a portable receiving syst...
متن کاملNormal patterns of human upper small bowel motor activity recorded by prolonged radiotelemetry.
In order to characterise human interdigestive cyclical motor activity, and its interruption by food, jejunal pressure changes in healthy volunteers were recorded continuously for 24 hours, using an ingested pressure-sensitive radiotelemetry capsule tethered at the duodenojejunal flexure. In 20 studies, the subjects fasted throughout; in another 20 studies they received a single standard meal. U...
