Breath testing in clinical practice

Breath testing is a non-invasive, cost-effective diagnostic tool used to evaluate a range of digestive conditions. It’s use is endorsed by the world’s leading gastroenterological organisations.

Applications

SIBO

Patients with a positive breath test are more than twice as likely to respond to treatment than those treated empirically. SIBO relapse is common, MedAIRE 2 makes retesting easy.

Constipation

Those with methane-predominant SIBO are more likely to have constipation. Methane severity correlates to severity of constipation. Measuring methane enables more personalised treatment.

Food Intolerances

Food is perceived as a symptom trigger for 50-84% of IBS patients. Using MedAIRE 2 allows easy assessment of common food intolerances like fructose, lactose, inulin and sorbitol.
