SIBO breath test
A test to diagnose symptoms in the gut.SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) is a very common but under diagnosed condition that causes symptoms in the gut, typically bloating and belching. These symptoms are often associated with reflux. For patients with the symptoms your consultant may therefore recommend a breath test, that you can do at home, to test for the presence of SIBO. This is usually treated successfully with a course of medication.

RefluxUK is an independent CQC registered healthcare provider which is working in partnership with KIMS Hospital. Any enquiries made via the KIMS Hospital enquiry line are transferred directly to RefluxUK where an outpatient appointment with a consultant will be arranged by a member of their team. The pre-operative multi-disciplinary team (MDT) assessment is performed by RefluxUK.
Whilst a patient is in the hospital, a consultant who has practising privileges at KIMS Hospital will take responsibility for the patient together with the KIMS Hospital team. Upon discharge, patient care will be transferred back to RefluxUK together with operation notes and the discharge summary.
In the event of any post-operative complication, patient care will continue to be provided by KIMS Hospital until any issues are resolved. Regular meetings between KIMS Hospital and RefluxUK will take place to review the service, quality & governance, and patient feedback.
