Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Breath Test Evaluation for SIBO

Arm Description

Subjects with symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) treated with a short course of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) clinically will undergo breath testing evaluating for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of SIBO after treatment with PPI
Number of subjects to have a positive breath testing for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) after clinical treatment of proton pump inhibitors (PPI ).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Symptoms of SIBO after treatment with PPI
Measured using the self-reported Mayo Bloating Questionnaire to assess symptoms of bloating and abdominal distension. Comprised of 45 questions addressing symptoms of bloating/distention. Other questionnaires include a diarrhea survey and the GERDQ.
Incidence of SIBO before treatment with a PPI
Number of subjects to have a positive breath testing for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) before clinical treatment of proton pump inhibitors (PPI ).
Symptoms of SIBO before treatment with a PPI
Measured using the self-reported Mayo Bloating Questionnaire to assess symptoms of bloating and abdominal distension. Comprised of 45 questions addressing symptoms of bloating/distention. Other questionnaires include a diarrhea survey and the GERDQ.
