Current Clinical Practice, 10/15/08
Flook N et al. - GERD has substantial adverse effects on patients' lives. Because of its high prevalence, it also imposes a significant health burden, making accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of particular importance. GERD is associated with significant morbidity and is a risk factor for increased mortality because of its causal link with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. The Montreal definition provides a patient-centered and symptom-based approach to assist physicians in the diagnosis and management of GERD. It provides valuable information to improve diagnostic precision and complements existing guidance on best practice.
