The diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in neonates has traditionally depended on a combination of clinical signs, biochemical parameters and radiological changes. The measurement of intramucosal pH by gastrointestinal tonometry provides a simple means of long-term monitoring which may detect the development of NEC before conventional techniques. We present our experience of tonometry in two 'at risk' term neonates with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.
新生儿坏死性小肠结肠炎（NEC）的诊断传统上依赖于临床体征、生化指标和放射学改变的综合判断。通过胃肠张力测定法测量黏膜内pH值提供了一种简单的长期监测手段，该方法可能比传统技术更早地检测到NEC的发展。我们介绍了对两名患有左心发育不全综合征的足月“高危”新生儿进行张力测定的经验。
