[A modification of intragastric pH measurement in patients with peptic ulcer].

Intraventricular pH-metry was employed in 222 patients with pyloroduodenal localization. The advantages and value of this new technique as compared with the currently used are described and emphasized. The author discusses the perspectives of using this method of intraventricular pH-metry in mass prophylactic screenings, prophylaxis, assessment of the gastric acidity in outpatient departments, choice and control of acid-regulating treatment.
