Active clinical trials for "Esophagitis, Peptic"

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.

The main aims of the study are to see the side effects of Dexlansoprazole treatment effectiveness of Dexlansoprazole treatment in children having symptomatic nonerosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Participants will take Dexlansoprazole by mouth once daily for 12 weeks

Objective: check the effectiveness of visceral manual therapy on bruxist patients with gastroesophageal reflux. Design: Experimental, analytical, longitudinal, prospective, randomized, single-blind study with a blinded evaluator. Subjects: 68 subjects over 18 years old, with bruxism (diagnoses by a dentist) and gastroesophageal reflux (evidenced by the GERDQ test). Methods: Subjects will be randomized into 2 groups: an experimental group (EG) to which a visceral manual technique will be applied and a control group (CG) to which a placebo manual technique will be administered. Both groups will receive 2 interventions one week apart. The measurements will be made before and after the interventions, and a last measurement will be made one month after the last intervention. Therefore, the patient will visit the center 3 times.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic endoloop pre-test for gastroesophageal reflux before anti-reflux surgery or endoscopic treatment. In the study, the investigators used the novel pre-test to narrow the gastric cardia to control symptoms temporarily to decide whether to undergo irreversible surgery or endoscopic treatment.Thirty patients were enrolled and underwent endoscopic endoloop pre-test treatment. The Primary outcome in this study was measured by the percent reduction in post-procedure GERD symptoms as evidenced by analysis of the GERD-HRQL (Health Related Quality of Life) questionnaire. The secondary outcomes included improvement in esophageal 24-hr pH monitoring, improvement in quality of life questionnaires and safety. Patient follow-up assessments were completed at 7 and 14 days post treatment.

The main objectives of the study are (1) to investigate if sleep positional therapy, using the LEFT smartwatch app reduces nocturnal gastroesophageal reflux symptoms in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease symptomatology at night and (2) stimulates patients to avoid sleeping in the right lateral sleep position.

A Randomised, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial off the Efficacy and Rapidity of Action of a Product Containing Sodium Alginate, Calcium and Magnesium Salts, Hyaluronic Acid and Aloe Vera to Control Oesophageal-Gastric pH and Reduce Symptoms of Gastric Reflux and Hyperacidity.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is defined as the presence of symptoms or complications secondary to the passage of gastric contents into the esophagus, oral cavity or structures of the airway. The prevalence worldwide is between 8-33%. The clinical practice guidelines of the American College of Gastroenterology establish that first-line treatment, in the absence of alarm symptoms, should be carried out empirically. This treatment consists of hygienic-dietary measures and the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for 8-12 weeks. Despite the proven effectiveness of PPIs, there is 10-40% of patients who do not respond adequately to this treatment. All this has motivated the appearance of endoscopic and surgical techniques that offer an alternative to medical treatment. Among them is the technique of antireflux ablation of the cardiac mucosa (ARMA) in which the resection of the mucosa is replaced by an ablation with electrocoagulation current or by argon gas fulguration.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease has a high global prevalence, proton pump inhibitors are the cornerstone in the management but 10-20% of the patients are refractory to these, surgical treatment being an option of treatment in these patient but its associated with high morbidity, as well as a greater possibility of early therapeutic failure, for these reasons new therapies are in development being the mucosectomy with band and ablation of the esophagogastric junction with hybrid argon plasma options widely available that can offer a viable therapeutic option for patients with difficult control of symptoms or those who does not want to receive continuous medical treatment or surgical treatment. The aims of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this new techniques in the management or gastroesophageal reflux disease without hiatal hernia.

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.

To study the role of a novel endoscopic treatment technique (ARMA) in GERD patients who doesn't respond to PPI therapy (Proton Pump Inhibitor).
