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% …
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.
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 …
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. …
Barrett's Esophagus Related Neoplasia (BERN) Project
The use of high resolution endoscopy (HRE), narrow band imaging (NBI) and chromoendoscopy increases the detection rates of Barrett's esophagus (BE) and early neoplasia. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) will improve the accuracy for detection of dysplasia/early neoplasia. Specific Aim 1 - To create a video-atlas of non-dysplastic and dysplastic/early neoplastic …
Prevalence and Natural History of Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders Among At-risk Infants.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the prevalence and characteristics of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) in at risk infants (former preterm infants and those with birth asphyxia) during the first 2 years of life. The main questions it aims to answer are: evaluate the prevalence of …
Effect of Esophageal Contractile Reserve on Changes in Esophageal Motility and Symptoms After ARS in Patients With GERD
rapid swallow (MRS) can assess the contractile reserve capacity of the oesophageal body and identify and diagnose oesophageal motility disorders, but the impact of preoperative oesophageal reserve capacity on postoperative symptoms and motility in patients with GERD remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of …
