Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition which results from the recurrent backflow of gastric contents into the esophagus and adjacent structures causing troublesome symptoms and/or tissue injury.
Typical symptoms are acid regurgitation and heartburn.
There is no gold standard for the diagnosis of GERD.
In patients with typical symptoms and who do not have symptoms suggestive of complications, an empiric trial of anti-secretory therapy may be considered since diagnostic modalities cannot reliably exclude GERD even if they are negative.
For further information regarding the management of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, please refer to Disease Algorithm for the Treatment Guideline.
