Analysis of Gastrointestinal Sounds in Infants With Pyloric Stenosis Before and After Pyloromyotomy

Abstract

This study found decreased gastrointestinal sounds to be among physical findings suggestive of HPS and a useful indicator of gastric emptying and bowel motility after pyloromyotomy. Computer-assisted analysis of gastrointestinal sounds might be helpful in clinical practice for pediatric patients with some gastrointestinal disorders.
