Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Assisted Autogenic Drainage (AAD) or bouncing combined with Assisted Autogenic Drainage (BAAD), induces or aggravates acid and non-acid gastro-oesophageal reflux in infants under the age of one year. Infants, referred to the hospital for impedance-pH monitoring are included in this study.

Conditions

  • Gastro-oesophageal Reflux

Interventions

OTHER

AAD

In this controlled trial with intra-subject design infants will be studied using multichannel intraluminal impedance pH (pH-MII) monitoring , during which they receive one 20 min session of AAD . The number of reflux episodes (RE) is the outcome measure. The results obtained during and 20 min after the intervention will be compared to a period of 20 min before treatment ( control ).
