UNLABELLED: The neutralization of gastric content during feeding and in the immediate postpandrial period, has determined that until recently time these periods were excluded in the studies of the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that were made with pH-metría. The aim of this study was to characterize the events of reflux during feeding with pH and impedance,and later to compare them with which it happens in fasting periods. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We recording pH and Impedance in 21 preterms neonates without associated pathology, except the prematurity, during 8 periods of feeding-fasting (1 hour of feeding and 2 hours of rest), replacing the nasogastric tube by a catheter of feeding + impedance, previous informed consent...
