Its one of the types of pH test. The Bravo test is a capsule that gets attached to your esophagus but I believe the tracking is only for the first 24 hours, then its just a waiting game for it to fall off. From what I've heard its the least useful test but the one that a lot of doctors push because its cheaper than the multi channel impedence test which gives you a wealth of information. If you have the choice you are better off going with the multi-channel impedence 24 hr pH test
