Filter by:This study will test the hypothesis that treatment with laparoscopic anti-reflux surgery in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and abnormal gastroesophageal reflux (GER) will slow the decline of forced vital capacity (FVC) over 48 weeks.
Imaging enhanced endoscopy can improve the efficacy of screening of Barrett's esophagus and predict its invasiveness. There is potentially molecular change over the Barrett's esophagus in this Chinese population. To evaluate the efficacy of imaging enhanced endoscopy for screening of Barrett's esophagus and evaluation of invasiveness
evaluate the impact of different anthropometric measures on clinical and endoscopic severity of GERD and its relation to serum leptin.
This study is crossover study to evaluate safety and efficacy of lansoprazole in preterm infants with gastroesophageal reflux.
A Post-Approval Study of the LINX® Reflux Management System in a prospective, multicenter, single-arm study, with patients as their own control to monitor the safety and efficacy of the LINX implant procedure and device in a post-approval environment to supplement existing safety and efficacy data.
Endoscopic correction of VUR has gained its popularity due to its less invasiveness, associated low morbidity and short hospital stay. Although short term follow-up had justified their efficacy; however, long term recurrence and complications following endoscopic correction were also being reported in the literatures (6). Currently, there are insufficient evidences on the efficacy and safety of biocompatible tissue augmenting materials used for endoscopic correction of VUR; particularly on the new tissue bulking agents. (6) Polyacrylate polyalcohol copolymer (PPC)-Vantris ® (Promedon, Cordoba, Argentina) is the newest tissue augmenting biocompatible Acrylics used for endoscopic correction of VUR.
The purpose of this project is to learn more about a new and promising way to diagnose acid reflux disease using a very high-powered microscope. This special microscope provides much finer detail than typical microscopes previously used for diagnosing reflux, and may help doctors to better identify children with acid reflux.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a widely available over the counter supplement marketed for heartburn symptoms on symptoms and health-related quality of life in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This study is designed as a pilot trial to assess safety and feasibility and to provide preliminary estimates of effect sizes.
The effectiveness of surgical fundoplication in treating classical reflux symptoms is well documented, but the role of surgery in alleviating extra-esophageal symptoms allegedly secondary to gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GORD) is far to be assessed. The effectiveness of anti-reflux surgery on extra-esophageal reflux symptoms varies from 15% to 95%; the spread of these data is largely attributable to disparate study design and methodology, patient selection, and outcome metrics. In order to assess whether anti-reflux surgery may have beneficial effects on chronic cough allegedly secondary to GERD and to eventually identify the preoperative clinical profile which could predict those positive effects, we considered two groups of patients presenting with 1) GERD associated to chronic cough, 2), typical GERD who underwent anti-reflux surgery.
