Clinical Experience With Performing Esophageal Function Testing in Children.

Objectives: Pediatric high-resolution manometry (HRM) and 24-hour pH-impedance with/without ambulatory manometry (pH-MII+/-mano) tests are generally performed using adult-derived protocols. We aimed to assess the feasibility of these protocols in children, the occurrence of patient-related imperfections and their influence on test interpretability.

Methods: Esophageal function tests performed between 2015 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.
