Abstract:
Objective To assess the incidence and management of nocturnal acid breakthrough (NAB). Methods Forty patients with duodenal ulcer confirmed by gastroscopy were randomly divided into five groups, eight patients in each group. Patients were treated by the following strategies for a course of 5 days: group A (omeprazole 20 mg per day orally in the morning), group B (omeprazole 20 mg twice a day orally in the morning and at 4 p.m), group C (intravenous injection of omeprazole 40 mg twice a day in the morning and at 4 p.m), group D (omeprazole 20 mg per day orally in the morning plus ranitidine 150 mg at bed time) and group E (omeprazole 20 mg twice a day orally in the morming and at 4 p.m plus ranitidine 150 mg at bed time) respectively. Intragastric pH over 24 hours was recorded on the morning of the fifth day for each patient. Results In comparison with that in group A, intragastric pH was higher in the other four groups. The mean intragastric pH and mean nocturnal pH each in group B (6.2?0.7, 6.4?1.1), group C (6.9?0.7, 6.8?0.9), group D (6.0?0.7, 5.9?0.7) and group E (5.8?0.5, 6.1?0.5) were significantly higher than those in group A (4.8?0.7, 4.7?0.8, P
