Abstract
Background: Mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) can improve diagnostic accuracy for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), but must be manually calculated and is not routinely reported. We aimed to determine how automated software-derived mean supine baseline impedance (MSBI), a potential novel GERD metric, is related to MNBI.
Methods: Consecutively obtained pH-impedance studies were assessed. Manually extracted MNBI was compared to MSBI using paired t-test and Spearman's correlations.
Key results: The correlation between MNBI and MSBI was very high (ρ = 0.966, p < 0.01).
Conclusions & inferences: The ease of acquisition and correlation with MNBI warrant the routine clinical use and reporting of MSBI with pH-impedance studies.

Neurogastroenterology & Motility (NMO) is the official Journal of the European Society of Neurogastroenterology & Motility (ESNM) and the American Neurogastroenterology and Motility Society (ANMS). It is edited by James Galligan, Albert Bredenoord, and Stephen Vanner. The editorial and peer review process is independent of the societies affiliated to the journal and publisher: Neither the ANMS, the ESNM or the Publisher have editorial decision-making power.
