This trial is testing a device called RefluxStop™ that is implanted during keyhole surgery to treat acid reflux (GERD). The study will check how safe and effective the device is for people with long-term GERD, and it aims to help reduce heartburn and other reflux symptoms.
This registry study follows people with long-term acid reflux (GERD) who get the RefluxStop treatment. It mainly collects real-world safety and performance information to see how well the device helps over time.
This study looks at how following specific diet and behavior changes affects symptoms of acid reflux (heartburn/regurgitation) in everyday life. It may help you understand what lifestyle steps improve reflux and how symptoms change over time.
This study tests whether reflux surgery can be done safely without a routine test called esophageal manometry (which measures how well your esophagus squeezes). If you have acid reflux or a hiatal hernia, you may be able to join to help determine if this simpler approach works just as well.
This study looks at patients who came to Beijing Friendship Hospital with stomach acid issues (GERD). Researchers want to understand how treatments like medications or anti-reflux surgery work over time. By joining, you help them improve care for others with the same condition.
This trial tests a new endoscopic procedure called anti-reflux mucosal ablation therapy to reduce acid reflux in people who still have symptoms despite taking acid-reducing medication. The goal is to see if this treatment helps improve heartburn and related symptoms.
