Gastroesophageal reflux is the involuntary movement of gastric contents to the esophagus. It is a common disease, occurring in one third of the population in the United States. However, reflux is only considered a disease when it causes frequent or severe symptoms or when it produces injury. About 3–7% of the U.S. population suffers from frank esophageal reflux disease. Most reflux disease is n...
Thirteen girls with grade III-V vesicoureteric reflux were treated by endoscopic injection of Teflon paste behind the intravesical ureter. Fourteen of the 18 treated ureters showed complete absence of reflux after one injection of Teflon. Three ureters required a second injection of Teflon for successful treatment of the reflux. One ureter with grade IV reflux was converted to grade II reflux. ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Acid gastro-oesophageal reflux is one of the most important causes of chronic cough. The response to acid suppression in these patients is not as good as in patients with heartburn but improvement with antireflux surgery has been reported, suggesting the involvement of a non-acidic gastric component in the refluxate. Less acidic reflux may produce symptoms such as regurgitat...
BACKGROUND Atropine reduces the rate of reflux episodes in normal subjects by inhibition of transient lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS) relaxations. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of atropine on the rate and mechanisms of reflux in patients with reflux disease. METHODS Oesophageal motility and pH were recorded for one hour after a meal in 15 patients with reflux disease. ...
INTRODUCTION The objective was to determine the frequency of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients and its role as a risk factor for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), which may be enhanced among those patients. METHODS The study is a prospective cohort study of mechanically ventilated pediatric patients in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of ...
OBJECTIVE There are no objective ambulatory studies on the temporal relationship between reflux and cough in children. Commercial pHmetry loggers have slow capture rates (0.25 Hz) that limit objective quantification of reflux and cough. The authors aimed to evaluate if there is a temporal association between cough and acid pH in ambulatory children with chronic cough. DESIGN, SETTING AND PATI...
OBJECTIVE Sleeve gastrectomy is the fastest growing surgical procedure to treat obesity in the world but it may cause or worsen gastroesophageal reflux disease. This article originally aimed to describe the addition of anti-reflux procedures (removal of periesophageal fats pads, hiatoplasty, a small plication and fixation of the gastric remnant in position) to the usual sleeve gastrectomy and t...
BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal reflux is a common diagnosis in infants. Yet, there is no information on the demographics of those hospitalized with reflux. The aim of this study is to describe the demographics of children with gastroesophageal reflux discharged from the hospital during the first two years of life. METHODS Retrospective chart review of children aged 0-2 years discharged between J...
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to use gastroesophageal and pulmonary scintigraphy to evaluate the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux and airway involvement among patients with posterior laryngitis. METHODS The study included a total of 201 patients (131 females, 70 males; age range, 15-77 y; mean age +/- SD, 49 +/- 16 y). All patients had posterior laryngitis documented by laryngosco...
VV Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) results from the failure of the lower esophageal sphincter to keep acid and other fluids in the stomach. This incompetency is commonly caused by the presence of a hiatal hernia, although a person can have pathologic reflux without a hiatal hernia and, conversely, can have no pathologic reflux even in the presence of a hiatal hernia. Most reflux is actua...
