24-Hour pH Monitoring for Reflux Diagnosis

Identify and manage chronic reflux symptoms with precision.

What is 24-Hour pH Monitoring?

What to Expect

The tube remains in place for 24 hours while you go about your normal routine. You’ll record symptoms and meals in a diary to correlate with the test data. The tube is removed after the monitoring period, and results are analysed to guide your treatment.

Preparation & Aftercare

You may be asked to stop certain medications in advance. Avoid eating or drinking for several hours before placement. After the tube is removed, normal activities can resume immediately.
