Technical and functional characteristics of the Gastroscan-IAM impedance/pH monitoring system, the first Russian medical device for 24-h impedance/pH-metry of the esophagus, are presented. Such monitoring is a new and most informative method for diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), the symptoms of which are experienced daily in 4-10% of the population.
