No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cardiorespiratory and gastroesophageal reflux events often coexist in infants in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) thus leading to drugs over-prescription and delayed discharge.

Through cardiorespiratory and pH-impedance monitoring this study aims to evaluate the temporal association between gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and cardiorespiratory (CR) events in a large number of infants with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and CR symptoms and, whether this association is significant, to clarify the impact of GER on CR events.
