Gastroesophageal impedance pH meter Ohmega™

tabletop

Ohmega is a small and lightweight ambulatory system which combines Impedance recording and pH recording to assist in the diagnosis of GERD. Ohmega detects reflux activity using impedance and categorizes these reflux episodes as acidic or non-acidic (weakly acidic), using traditional pH measurement. Gas and mixed liquid/gas reflux episodes are analyzed as well. Traditional pH recording only records acidic pH reflux episodes. pH-Impedance detects both acidic and non-acidic reflux episodes. Combined pH-impedance recording is clinically useful in the evaluation of symptoms under PPI therapy, as well as for hoarse-ness, unexplained cough, and applications of particular interest. Key Features and Benefits Recorder Small and lightweight ambulatory system which can combine impedance and pH recordings to assist in the diagnosis of GERD and non-cardiac chest pain on or off PPI’s. Software The Virtual Instructor Program™ helps to complete the procedure successfully with minimal training. Bluetooth® capabilities make it possible to view and check data on a computer monitor while recording. The intelligent symptom analysis software quantifies reflux episodes quickly and simply. Catheter Variety Laborie offers a broad range of impedance and pH catheters with a wide variety of channels and diameters. Laborie catheters are flexible, easy to insert, and have an internal reference electrode.
