Funded Activity Summary

Infantile Cow's Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) is becoming increasingly more common. Symptoms due to CMPA (feeding difficulties, feed refusal, vomiting, crying and irritability) are clinically indistinguishable from reflux disease, leading to unnecessary anti-reflux treatments and delaying appropriate therapy. By using a state-of-the art system which more easily differentiates symptoms due to reflux disease from those due to CMPA, this project will improve the speed and accuracy of diagnosis.
