Gastric Accommodation and Gastroesophageal Reflux

NCT01078064 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Gastroesophageal reflux events generally happen during relaxation of lower esophageal sphincter. This relaxation is a reflex that is triggered by gastric stimuli. The investigators hypothesize that abnormal relaxation of the gastric wall after a meal may lead to reflux events. To test this hypothesis, a study was designed to measure the gastric accommodation in patients undergoing esophageal impedance monitoring.
