AB  - Diagnostic testing for GERD has evolved to include multi esophageal sites 
      (distal, proximal and hypopharyngeal monitoring), wireless pH, and oropharyngeal 
      devices. The versatility of the devices has increased our ability to better 
      understand the role of acid reflux in various disorders involving reflux of acid. 
      Wireless pH monitoring improves patient comfort and allows monitoring for 
      gastroesophageal reflux events over several days. Ambulatory MII-pH monitoring is 
      another exciting diagnostic tool, which is capable of detecting more than one 
      type of reflux and achieves higher sensitivity and specificity to detect GERD 
      than endoscopy or pH-metry. It is useful in patients with either typical or 
      atypical reflux symptoms who are refractory to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) 
      therapy. In this setting, MII-pH can be performed on PPI therapy to assess the 
      efficacy of PPIs and the role of nonacid or acid reflux in persistent symptoms.
