Abstract
Ambulatory 24 hour oesophageal pH monitoring was performed in order to detect gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in 74 patients presenting with poorly explained ear-nose-throat complaints. A significant number of these patients also benefited from other currently used methods for diagnosing GERD. Oesophageal pH-monitoring demonstrated GERD in half of the patients. For atypical GERD, 24 hour oesophageal pH-monitoring seems to be the most sensitive procedure.
