December 22, 2016 updated by: Filip Van Ginderdeuren, Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Influence of Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation (IPV) on Gastro-oesophageal Reflux (GOR) in Infants From 0 to 12 Months.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation ( airway clearance technique) provokes or aggravates gastro-oesophageal reflux in infants from 0 to 12 months.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Refluxes
Time Frame: during 20 minutes of IPV compared to mean number of refluxes during 20 minutes.
Every two hours after feeding, the number of refluxes during 20 minutes are measured. The mean number of refluxes during these periods were calculated and compared to the number of refluxes during 20 minutes of IPV
during 20 minutes of IPV compared to mean number of refluxes during 20 minutes.
