Summary

This is a continuation of a study that has already been completed in the division of gastroenterology (GI) looking at the effects of sleep medication zolpidem (Ambien) on subjects with Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). That study looked at 16 subjects, 8 who had been diagnosed with GERD and 8 who did not have GERD (IRB Control #04S.41). All subjects previously had a PH probe completed in the division of GI at Thomas Jefferson University. An additional 8 subjects with GERD will be recruited to obtain more data to add to the previous study results. These subjects will undergo 2 sleep studies, one in which they will be given Ambien and one in which they will not.
