Sucrose Breath Tests
Your child deserves the best care
What is a lactose breath test?
A Sucrose Breath Test is a non-invasive procedure used to diagnose sucrose intolerance or sucrase-isomaltase deficiency. During this test, the patient consumes a sucrose solution, and breath samples are analyzed to measure hydrogen and methane levels. Elevated levels indicate improper digestion of sucrose, which can lead to symptoms like bloating, gas, and abdominal pain. The Sucrose Breath Test is especially helpful in identifying gastrointestinal issues in children and guiding effective treatment plans for improved digestive health.
