Our team have received theoretical and practical training on the latest modalities of diagnosis and grading of GERD and Esophageal motility syndromes, via HRM (High Resolution Manometry) and PH/Impedance Testing in London/UK.

The key objective of this training was to support users to develop their existing practice and to understand both the clinical application and indications for reflux monitoring, including the technical differences between impedance and pH-metre. There was also an introduction to the alpHaONE wireless pH capsule and discussion on patient selection for Wireless or Wired monitoring. In the practical session the trainees had the opportunity for ‘Hands on’ practise, to examine, read and report on a variety of case studies. The attendees were be able to discuss and compare their findings with the trainers.

The trainers:

• Professor Daniel Sifrim MD, PhD, Emeritus Professor of GI Physiology, Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary, University of London, UK.
• Dr Philip Woodland, MD, PhD. Consultant Gastroenterologist at Royal London Hospital and Senior Lecturer Queen Mary University of London.
• Dr Jafar Jafari, MD, PhD AGIP, Head of Upper GI Physiology Services at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust
