[A rapid method for intragastric pH-metry].

Abstract

An original technique of basal topographic pH-metry of the stomach, making use of new pH-microtubes, was employed in mass prophylactic check-ups. The suggested method of intragastric pH-metry is superior to the currently used one and may be employed for the screening of subjects who are in need of an x-ray endoscopic examination of the stomach and for outpatient measurements of the gastric pH values, as well as for the choice and monitoring of the pH-regulating therapy.
