NCT05080634

Brief Summary

Achalasia is an uncommon disorder that results from the degeneration of ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus in the lower esophageal wall. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive procedure capable of overcoming limitations of achalasia treatments. This study aimed to: 1) identify the prevalence of reflux esophagitis and asymptomatic GERD in patients who underwent POEM, and 2) evaluate patient and intraprocedural variables associated with post-POEM GERD.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux after peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM)

    36 Months

Interventions

chalasia patients were recruited from a single center. The pre- and postoperative assessments included Eckardt scores, GerdQ questionnaire, high-resolution esophageal manometry, esophagogastroscopy and pH monitoring.

Study Population

All patients treated at a single center who had a complete GERD evaluation after POEM will be included in the study. Demographics, preoperative and follow-up data, results of functional studies and procedural data will be collected and analyzed.

You may qualify if:
