Correlation of pH Probe–Measured Laryngopharyngeal Reflux With Symptoms and Signs of Reflux Laryngitis

Abstract

Throat clearing was the most intense symptom in the present group of patients with proven reflux laryngitis. Dual-sensor pH probe testing could not predict the severity of patient's reflux laryngitis symptoms or signs. Only the heartburn symptom correlated with laryngopharyngeal and esophageal reflux.
