GROUP D
2
narrowing of the esophagus(distal) near the junction with the stomach (squamocolumnar jxn). sequelae of gastroesophageal reflux– induced esophagitis. (GERD) ~10%
3
“Chronic symptoms or mucosal damage produced by the abnormal reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus”
4
Decreased basal lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure and LES relaxations allow refluxate to enter esophagus Decreased acid clearance allows acidic refluxate to remain in the esophagus Refluxate of acid and pepsin injures the esophageal mucosa Decreased basal lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure and LES relaxations allow refluxate to enter esophagus Decreased acid clearance allows acidic refluxate to remain in the esophagus Refluxate of acid and pepsin injures the esophageal mucosa

Heartburn Regurgitation of sour materials Heartburn Regurgitation of sour materials

7
Calcium Antagonists Anticholinergics Beta-blockers Alpha-Adrenergic blockers Progesterone Doxycycline Potassium tablets NSAID’s Bisphosphonates
8
Diet Alcohol Coffee Chocolate Citrus and tomato products Fatty and spicy foods Peppermint Diet Alcohol Coffee Chocolate Citrus and tomato products Fatty and spicy foods Peppermint Exercise Bending Lifting Running Other Tight clothing Pregnancy
10
Persistent Dysphagia Signs and Symptoms of GERD Regurgitation of sour food material Heartburn Signs and symptoms of Respiratory tract irritation and inflammation (if with pulmonary aspiration) Pulmonary aspiration complications
11
Barium esophagram Endoscopy Esophageal manometry 24 hour pH monitoring
12
Goals: Relieve dysphagia and restore swallowing Treat the underlying GERD promote healing of esophagitis prevent stricture recurrence
13
Stricture Dilatation Initial means of relieving dysphagia. Dysphagia resolves when the stricture can be dilated to 14 mm Esophageal resection Patients with undilatable strictures Kahrilas P J. Gastroesophageal reflux disease. JAMA. (1996); 276: 983–988. [PubMed]PubMed
14
Antacids Widely used to self-medicate for heartburn Useful in treating mild GERD
15
Anti secretory Agents PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitors) Specifically inhibit the H + /K + -ATPase enzyme system at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell, resulting in a potent antisecretory effect Promotes healing of erosive esophagitis in chronic GERD omeprazol (20mg/d) lansoprazole(30 mg/d) pantoprazole (40 mg/d) esomeprazole (40 mg/d) rabeprazole (20 mg/d)
16
Anti secretory Agents H 2 -receptor antagonists competitive antagonists of histamine at the parietal cells H 2 receptor, suppressing the normal secretion of acid by parietal cells and the meal-stimulated secretion of acid. cimetidine, 300 mg ranitidine, 150 mg bid famotidine, 20 mg bid nizatidine, 150 mg bid
17
Antireflux Surgery Fundoplication (laparoscopic; open surgery) gastric fundus (upper part) of the stomach is wrapped, or plicated, around the lower end of the esophagus and stitched in place Increases LES pressure alleviates chronic heartburn in people whose condition cannot be controlled by either lifestyle changes or medication
18
Weight reduction Head elevation during sleep elimination of factors that increase abdominal pressure. Abstinence from smoking and alcohol Avoid fatty foods, coffee, chocolate, mint, orange juice
