What is the Bravo pH Monitoring System?
Bravo is the world’s first catheter-free pH monitoring system. With the Bravo system, a miniature pH capsule, approximately the size of a gel cap, is temporarily attached to the wall of your esophagus. The capsule transmits pH information wirelessly to a portable receiver you wear on your waistband. The capsule usually takes a few minutes to place. There’s no uncomfortable catheter during the test period, which means you can eat, sleep, shower, and engage in all your normal activities.
