Filter by:Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF) is a surgical intervention for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, it can be followed by recurrent symptoms or complications that may affect patient satisfaction. Intraoperative endomanometric evaluation of esophagogastric competence and pressure, combined with LNF in patients with large sliding hiatus hernia (>5cm) with severe GERD (DeMeester score >100), is needed.This is a retrospective, multicenter, comparative study. Baseline characteristics, initial reflux symptoms, preoperative and postoperative antacid medication use, postoperative complications (dysphagia and gas bloat syndrome), recurrent symptoms, and satisfaction were collected from a prospective database. Outcomes measures were recurrent reflux symptoms, postoperative side-effects, and satisfaction with surgery. Quantitative data were compared between the studied groups using the independent t-test or Mann-Whitney U test for normally and non-normally distributed numerical variables, respectively
The study titled "Effectiveness of Modified Diaphragmatic Training for Improving GERD-Q Score, Diaphragmatic Excursion, Maximum Inspiratory Pressure and Lung Function in Adults With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease After Covid-19: a Single-blinded Randomized Control Trial" is a clinical trial that aimed to investigate the effectiveness of 4 weeks modified diaphragmatic training (MDT) compare with standard diaphragmatic training for improving GERD-Q score, diaphragmatic excursion, maximum inspiratory pressure, and lung function in adults with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after COVID-19. The trial was single-blinded and randomized, and it included a total of 50 participants. The results of the study showed that MDT was effective in improving GERD-Q score, diaphragmatic excursion, maximum inspiratory pressure, and lung function in adults with GERD after COVID-19.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. One of the main risk factor is obesity. Currently, either conservative treatment including pharmacotherapy and lifestyle modifications or surgical treatment are the only therapeutic options available in the Czech Republic, both approaches having their known limitations. Stretta is a minimally invasive endoscopic therapy using the radiofrequency energy delivered to the EGJ and cardia to eventually enhance the antireflux barrier. This study will attempt to get information regarding the treatment of GERD using Stretta in the Czech Republic and correlate results in obese and non-obese population.
This is a Phase I, single-center, open label parallel-group, randomized study designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety and tolerability of single and repeated oral doses of Linaprazan Glurate for up to 14 days at 3 dose levels in healthy male and female subjects. The subjects will be followed up to 28 days post IMP dosing.
Bodysurface gastric mapping (BSGM) will be used to assess gastric neuromuscular function in healthy controls and patients with medical refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Participants will undergo BSGM for 4-hours in addition to high resolution manometry (HRM), pH-impedance monitoring, and gastric emptying breath test.
This Study aims to develop machine learning models with the ability to predict patients' BMI and complications after Bariatric Surgery (CABS-Score). This Study also aims to develop machine learning models with the ability to predict diabetic (DM II)patients' remission rate after Bariatric Surgery. The service mentioned above will be publicly available as a web-based application
The overall goal is to define and characterize the manometric characteristics of UES incompetence associated with objectively documented pharyngeal reflux. The investigators will use endoscopic reflux detection as gold standard.
in this study the investigators will test anew technique to mange patients with morbid obesity and GERD by doing sleeve gastrectomy plus cruroplasty and omental rape around the gastroesophageal junction
In this research study the investigators want to learn more about the effectiveness of an endoscopic procedure (an endoscope is a lighted tube that is placed down the participants esophagus, through the participants mouth) which uses a device that allows the doctor to repair or recreate the body's natural barrier to reflux. It uses preloaded forceps (tweezers) and fasteners and requires no incision to tighten the connection between the participants esophagus and stomach. This procedure is performed to aid in the treatment of symptoms of Gastroesophageal Reflux disease (GERD) in patients with diagnosed Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). LPR is a condition resulting from backflow of stomach contents into the laryngopharynx (connection point in the participants throat through which food, water, and air pass) resulting in symptoms that can be referred to larynx/hypopharynx. The device the investigators will use to perform the transoral incisionless fundoplication procedure (TIF) is called the EsophyX device. The participants have been asked to participate because they have been diagnosed with LPR and have either failed medical therapy (taking prescription proton pump inhibitors (PPI) to reduce stomach acid production or do not want to be on long-term medical treatment.
This is a longitudinal observational study on patients with gastrointestinal and related disease. The study will be conducted for at least 10 years, following each participant over time, as they either go through relapses and remissions, or progression of their disease.
