Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Responsive Eosinophilic Esophagitis EoE: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) or Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)?

NCT01865825 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2017-03-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators would like to determine if there are patients with PPI responsive Eosinophilic Esophagitis Infiltration that have significant loss of esophageal distensibility suggestive of esophageal fibrosis typical of classic Eosniophilic Esophagitis.

If this group of patients exists, the investigators would like to determine if they have the typical endoscopic features of EoE rather than those of GERD.

Conditions

  • Erosive Esophagitis

Interventions

RADIATION

Esophageal Barium Xray

•Fast for 4 hours prior to the Esophagram (upper GI x-ray). You will drink a liquid that has barium or another contrast agent in it. The radiologist will use the X-ray machine to look at your upper GI tract while you drink the contrast liquid. The x-ray exam should take between 10-15 minutes. We will have patients complete the Mayo Dysphasia Questionnaire-30 day.
