Performance and Safety of Afluxin® in Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a chronic condition in which stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and inflammation. GERD is categorized into Nonerosive Reflux Disease (NERD), Erosive Esophagitis (EE), and Barrett's esophagus (BE). Common symptoms include heartburn and acid regurgitation. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, obesity, and …
The Effect of Postural Correction On Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
The main aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effects of postural correctional exercises and interventions on the severity of symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as well as the quality of life of patients afflicated with this disease. The main questions this study aims to answer …
Anti-reflux Mucosal Valvuloplasty Versus PPIs for GERD Treatment
The study objective is to evaluate the relative merits, safety and effectiveness of Anti-reflux mucosal valvuloplasty (ARMV) in GERD patients currently treated with daily Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).
Anti-Reflux Endoscopic Therapy Using Argon Plasma Coagulation (AREA) in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Patients: A Single Center, Randomized, Sham, Controlled Trial (The AREA Study)
Background and Rationale: Gastroesophageal reflux disease is affecting 1 in 3 US adults with half experiencing daily symptoms. Per recent data, more than 50% continue to experience daily symptoms despite taking medical therapy and not eligible for surgery. In that small fraction of patients who are eligible for surgery, more …
Safety and Effectiveness of eGERD Device to Reduce Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Symptoms
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the eGERD device, which is a novel device for treating Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). The main questions this research aims to answer are: Does the eGERD device reduce acidity in the esophagus? Does the eGERD device reduce …
Heartburn, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition caused by the reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus, presenting with typical symptoms such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. GERD is a chronic condition that affects quality of life, and patients with this condition are known to have a lower quality of …
Study on Hydrotalcite for Relief of Acid Symptoms Due to Acid Rebound After Stopping Long-Term PPI Therapy
This observational study aims to explore the effectiveness of hydrotalcite, marketed as Talcid, in alleviating acid-related symptoms that occur due to an acid rebound after discontinuing a non-/no-longer-indicated long-term proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. PPIs are commonly prescribed to reduce stomach acid to alleviate symptoms such as heartburn and for …
Vonaprazan Versus Esomeprazole for Healing of LA Grade B or Higher Esophagitis After POEM
Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) is a well-established treatment for achalasia; however, it is frequently associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), with many patients developing LA grade B or higher esophagitis. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like Esomeprazole are the standard treatment, but Vonaprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), offers superior acid …
Clinical Study Evaluating The Role of Vonoprazan Versus Pantoprazole in Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
This study aims to investigate the possible efficacy of vonoprazan versus Pantoprazole in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Evaluating Medication Adherence of Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease With Support of the Smartphone Application GERDCare
Adherence to GERD treatment, including medication, diet, and lifestyle, is essential for symptom control and complication prevention, yet adherence rates remain low due to various demographic and clinical factors. Digital therapeutics, particularly mobile health applications, have shown promising potential in supporting chronic disease management and improving patient outcomes. The GERDCare …
