Purpose:To identify theeffect of Antacid calcium-preparation on
gastroeosophageal reflux disease by using pH meterfor 24 hour
monitoring analysis. Study methodology:A randomly controlled test was
used for the study. Study objects were administered Antacid calcium-6
preparation and their gastric acidity level was identified by pH monitoring
analysis for 24 hours. Theimpact of preparation in regards with before
and after treatment and their relationship were analysed by t-test.
Results:The 24-hour pH meter analysis of Antacid calcium-6 preparation
indicated that before administration of preparation the
gastroeosophageal pH=5,75±0,14, which has increased after the
administration to pH=9,7±0,02 and the average duration was 7,8±0,09
days. In other words, the alkalinizing effect was statistically significant
(p<0.001). Also, According to the criteria developed by the DeMeester,
the daily prevalence of reflux, the prevalence of reflux that continued for
more than five minutes and the DeMeester index indicated that the
preparation was significantly efficient (p=0.041). The neutrialising effect
of the preparation was established by using the criteria method
developed by G.A. Agafonova and A.P. Kholopov (1984), and after
administering the preparation, the gastric level was pH=4,6±1,5 indicating
that the preparation had a neutralising effect. The average duration for
neutralization was 19,3±0,9 hours. Conclusion: Аntacid calcium-6
preparation was effective in neutralising the gastric acidity and it was
appropriate for treatment of GERD, chronic gastritis.
