Anti-Reflux Endoscopic TX Using APC (AREA) in GERD Patients: (The AREA Study)

Gastro Esophageal Reflux

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.

Assessment on Effects of Tongjiang Granule in Treating Nonerosive Reflux Disease Overlapping Epigastric...

Gastroesophageal RefluxFunctional Dysphonia

Overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms of functional gastrointestinal diseases (FGIDs) is an internationally recognized problem in modern medical diagnosis and treatment. Such patients show more physical symptoms and worse quality of life, resulting in a huge economic burden. At present, FGIDs gastrointestinal symptoms overlap, lack of effective and systematic treatment, and the treatment goal is to improve symptoms.The study plans to carry out a multi center and large sample RCT clinical study of Tongjiang granule in the treatment of overlapping gastrointestinal symptoms of non erosive reflux disease(NERD)and epigastric pain syndrome(EPS, so as to provide high-level evidence-based evidence for the treatment of overlapping symptoms of FGIDs and form a diagnosis and treatment scheme that can be popularized.

The Effect of Physiotherapy on Post POEM Reflux

RefluxGastroesophageal2 more

Per-oral endoscopic myotomy has been used as a treatment method of esophageal achalasia. Patients who undergo POEM as a treatment of achalasia are often presented with development of reflux as a side effect of the surgery. Patients are then in need to use proton pump inhibitor drugs as a long term treatment of the reflux symptoms. Physiotherapy aimed on the strengthening of diaphragm and lower esophageal region is effective in gastroesophageal reflux disease. Therefore we are expecting positive effect of physiotherapy in post POEM patients with reflux symptoms and the possible reduction of PPI drug usage need. The aim of the study is to objectify the effect of physiotherapy, to describe in detail the used physiotherapeutic techniques and to develop practical guidelines for the treatment of patients after POEM with GERD.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy With or Without Hiatal Hernia Repair in Morbidly Obese Patients...

Morbid ObesityHiatal Hernia2 more

Background: Obesity and hiatal hernia are both risk factors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and the incidence of hiatal hernia is much higher in morbidly obese patients. Many believe that higher intra-abdominal pressure with higher esophagogastric junction (EGJ) pressure gradient in morbidly obese patients is the main mechanism accounting for the occurrence of GERD. Hiatal hernia, on the other hand, is associated with structure abnormality of EGJ. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been becoming a standalone bariatric surgery for decades, and it has been proved to effectively induce long-term weight loss in morbidly obese patients. Some studies found morbidly obese patients benefited from resolution of GERD after SG, however, other studies had the opposite findings. Some morbidly obese patients had aggravating GERD or de novo GERD after SG. The mechanism is still unclear now. It might result from removal of fundus and sling muscular fibers of EGJ, increased intra-gastric pressure (IIGP), and hiatal hernia after surgery. High resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) is used to access esophageal and EGJ function objectively. Impedance reflux was more frequently observed in patients having gastroesophageal reflux (GER) symptoms after SG. In addition, previous studies also found decreased EGJ resting pressure, decreased length of lower esophageal sphincter (LES), and presence of hiatal hernia were associated with more GERD after SG. Objective: To evaluate the long-term EGJ function and GERD in morbidly obese patients with hiatal hernia receiving laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with or without hiatal hernia repair (HHR).

Evaluation of Omentopexy on Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Following Sleeve Gastrectomy

Obesity

The aim of the study is to assess impact of omentopexy on de novo gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after sleeve gastrectomy. This will be assess 2 years postoperatively. This study is a prospective, multicentric, randomized trial. Five hundred twenty six patients should be included with 263 in each arm. First arm will include patients who have a sleeve gastrectomy. The second arm will include patients who have sleeve gastrectomy with omentopexy. Two years after surgery , it will be collected a CARLSSON score and BAROS score (quality of life). The main objective is to show that omentopexy decreases the rate of de novo GERD after sleeve gastrectomy at 2 years postoperatively without the use of Proton-Pump Inhibitors (PPIs)

Reflux Band in Laryngopharyngeal Reflux

Laryngopharyngeal Reflux

This 12 week biomarker targeted double blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) will enroll subjects with salivary pepsin positive laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) to assess efficacy of the external upper esophageal sphincter (UES) compression device, also known as the Reflux Band. Subjects will be randomized to one of two arms: control or experimental. Following the 8 week intervention period subjects in both arms will continue in a 4 week unblinded period. The primary hypothesis is that a significantly higher proportion of subjects in the experimental arm will meet the primary endpoint for symptom response, compared to subjects in the control arm.

Domperidone in Treating Patients With Gastrointestinal Disorders

Digestive System DisorderDyspepsia5 more

This phase III trial studies how well domperidone works in treating patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Domperidone may help control chronic gastrointestinal disorders and their symptoms, such as pain, bloating, and nausea and vomiting, by stimulating contraction of the stomach to increase its ability to empty itself of food.

Genotype-tailored Treatment of Symptomatic Acid-Reflux in Children With Uncontrolled Asthma

AsthmaGastroesophageal Reflux

This study will evaluate the effect of CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genes on pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole in children with mild gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and uncontrolled asthma. It will determine if genotype-guided lansoprazole dosing of lansoprazole improves GER and asthma control.
