Filter by:This study aims to compare the nighttime heartburn improvement effect of Tegoprazan 50mg and Esomeprazole 40mg(or 20mg) in patients with GERD.
This protocol is a study to assess the efficacy of an external upper esophageal band to decrease subjective nighttime symptoms related to esophageal reflux into the pharynx.
After defining the manometric characteristics of UES incompetence associated with documented pharyngeal reflux, we will determine the reproducibility of manometric criteria for UES incompetence in prevention of pharyngeal reflux. We hypothesize that these criteria are comprised of either a single or constellation of manometric abnormalities. After determining the ability of externally applied cricoid cartilage pressure in preventing pharyngeal reflux, we further hypothesize that this approach will eliminate or reduce esophago-pharyngeal reflux by enhancing the UES pressure barrier. We anticipate there will be a close spatial correlation between the site of applied pressure and area of increased pressure within UES high pressure zone. Lastly, we will determine and characterize the effect of externally applied cricoid cartilage pressure on related functions such as belch and swallow, testing the hypothesis that these functions will not be impaired.
This observation study is a large-scale, prospective, and multi-organ observation study to observe the improvement effect of the self-evaluation results (PRO) of erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease at least 4 to 8 weeks after administration of Fexuclue Tab.
This will be a randomized clinical trial examining the efficacy and safety of ARAT (intervention group) in patients with chronic GERD symptoms (typical symptoms of GERD, i.e. heartburn or acid reflux/regurgitation at least twice a week) for the last 6 months. Patients must have a positive pH test and a negative manometry (no treatment) procedure.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) remains one of the most common pathologies seen among gastroenterologists, surgeons, and primary care physicians. The high prevalence of this condition lead to further investigations in its prevention, diagnosis, and management. For the treatment of this chronic condition, improvement in quality of life and long-term durability should be considered. Nowadays, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are considered the mainstay in the treatment of the patients with GERD; however, due to the increasing concern related to its safety in its long-term use and the over prescription of these drugs, new surgical and endoscopic interventions have emerged. A local treatment based on injections of hyaluronic acid, a natural nonimmunogenic mucosal defense, in the lower esophageal mucosa is a tentative treatment option for these patients. Based on this, the investigators pursue to assess the effects of hyaluronic acid in gastroesophageal reflux control.
This study will be conducted as a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effect of MHS-1031 on heartburn-free days in subjects with GERD-related heartburn symptoms.
This research is designed to compare proximal gastrectomy anterior anastomosis with pyloroplasty with esophagogastric anastomosis for gastric cancer. Gastroesophageal reflux disease, postoperative quality of life, short term outcomes, and long term outcomes will be compared.
This observational study will be conducted among 43 patients of both sexes in each group Study participants will be of the age more than 18 years - STUDY PROCEDURE-Pre-defined technique to avoid bias and confounding due to multiple factors - All the poem procedures will be performed by posterior route - Preservation of sling fibers will be attempted in all the cases to avoid heterogeneity - Length of esophageal myotomy will be kept constant (4-6cm) - Double scope technique will be utilized to confirm the gastric extent of myotomy First evaluation at 1-month: based on Symptoms • Second evaluation: at 6 months by - Objective evaluation: UGI endoscopy, High resolution manometry, Timed barium swallow - Eckardt score, GERD-HRQL - 24-hour pH study with manual readings
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common chronic conditions that can affect one's quality of life. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become a popular technique and currently is the most frequently practiced surgical operation to treat obesity today. However, the prevalence of GERD following SG can be fairly high. Several studies have noted an incidence between 6% and 47%. To preserve this natural barrier during SG, a careful dissection at the angle of His must be maintained in order to spare the sling fibers and avoid blunting the angle of His. During creation of the sleeve, the gastric sling fibers are frequently transected near the angle of His, particularly if the transection line is very close to this anatomic landmark. These sling fibers contribute significantly to the function of the LES. The investigators suggest that after the finishing of SG, the anatomical structure of His horn was destroyed or partly destroyed, and the acute angle of His become obtuse angle. The investigators propose to perform a prospective randomized controlled study to reestablish the acute angle of His in obese patients followig sleeve gastrectomy to prevent GERD.
