Behandling & läkemedel
Refluxsjukdom hos barn diagnostiseras normalt utifrån symtom, men det finns även en rad andra metoder, exempelvis röntgen med bariumlösning i magen (en så kallad Milk Scan), registrering av pH i matstrupen, eller endoskopi [5].
När refluxsjukdom konstaterats kan sjukdomen behandlas hos de flesta barn. Det är viktigt att varje barn behandlas individuellt utifrån tillstånd och symtom [11].
