Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: What's new in its diagnosis and treatment?

Enfermedad por Reflujo Gastroesofágico: ¿Qué hay de nuevo en su diagnóstico y tratamiento?

Abstract

According to the Montreal classification, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a condition that develops when the reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus causes bothersome symptoms and/or complications. These become problematic when they negatively affect the well-being of the individual and annoying when they occur two or more days a week. On the other hand, there is talk of Non-erosive Reflux Disease (ERNE) when symptoms are present, but there is no evidence of damage to the mucosa by means of endoscopy.
