NCT03223116

Brief Summary

This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency energy procedure for Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) based on changes of symptoms, medication esophagitis grade, esophageal acid exposure and lower esophageal sphincter pressure. Symptom assessment was performed at baseline and 3, 6, 12 months after treatment.
