Esophageal and Gastric Registry and Biorepository
The evaluation of the foregut, the esophagus and stomach, has come a long way over the past two decades, and continues to experience exciting discoveries in the clinical evaluation of foregut physiology. Assessing esophageal peristalsis has relied for the past several decades on High Resolution Manometry (HRM), however it has …
Prospective Evaluation of pH-impedance Tracings According to the Wingate Consensus, and Influence on GERD Classification According to the Lyon Consensus
Commonly, in clinical practice an automated analysis of pH-MII tracings is obtained.
Role of Mucosal Impedance Measurement for the Diagnosis of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Existing current tests for diagnosing GERD are suboptimal because they lack adequate sensitivity or specificity. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is highly specific for diagnosing GERD, particularly when erosive esophagitis is present (Los Angeles Classification B, C, or D). Nevertheless, its sensitivity is limited, as this scenario is only present in 30% …
Normal Values of Ambulatory 24-hour Oesophageal pH-impedance Monitoring in an Indian Cohort of Participants
This study aims to determine normal 24-hour pH-impedance monitoring values, including acid exposure time (AET), in healthy Indian adults. It will help improve GERD diagnosis in India by providing population-specific data. The study will also explore how diet, body position, and nighttime reflux affect acid exposure. Healthy volunteers aged 18 …
Effect of Helicobacter Pylori Eradication on Gastroesophageal RefIux Disease (GERD)
Evaluate the effect of H.pylori eradication on Gastroesophageal-reflux disease and symptoms improvement
Efficacy Of Hiatal Closure For GERD
The purpose of this protocol is to study the efficacy of hiatal closure for early GERD disease. The study team hypothesizes that hiatal closure for early GERD disease is an efficacious treatment of GERD.
Thresholds of SLR Maneuver in Obese Patients
There is an increasing interest in High resolution manometry (HRM) in the preoperative assessment of patients with obesity, in order to identify the best surgical option. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has been known to increase the risk of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Different techniques have been recently developed and validated to …
Endoscopic Fundoplication With MUSE System
This is a spontaneous, prospective, monocentric, observational, cohort study, with the aim of evaluating the effect of ultrasound-guided endoscopic fundoplication using the Medigus Ultrasonic Surgical Endostapler (MUSESystem; MediGus, Ltd. Israel) in patients with esophageal or extra-esophageal gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD)-related symptoms. The end of the study will be at the …
Analysis of Prevalence and Risk Factors Associated With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Esophagitis After Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy
Achalasia is an uncommon disorder that results from the degeneration of ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus in the lower esophageal wall. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive procedure capable of overcoming limitations of achalasia treatments. This study aimed to: 1) identify the prevalence of reflux esophagitis and …
9-Step Magnetic Bariatric Revisional Surgery
RYGB represents one of the best alternatives for weight loss in obese patients achieving a weight loss of up to 60% and a resolution of comorbidities of 70%. Revision surgery contemplates multiple techniques including the conversion from one surgical technique to another, structural changes to the primary technique, among others. …
