简要总结
This is a spontaneous, prospective, monocentric, observational, cohort study, with the aim of evaluating the effect of ultrasound-guided endoscopic fundoplication using the Medigus Ultrasonic Surgical Endostapler (MUSESystem; MediGus, Ltd. Israel) in patients with esophageal or extra-esophageal gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD)-related symptoms. The end of the study will be at the end of the 6-year follow-up of the last patient enrolled. The study proposes the following objectives:
-
Primary objective: to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic fundoplication with MUSE for the treatment of GERD, through clinical experience, in terms of:
-
effect on GERD-Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) and Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) questionnaire scores
-
effect on the use and dosage of proton pump inhibitors (PPI)
-
feasibility and safety of the endoluminal fundoplication procedure
-
Secondary objective: to characterize the treated patient population (demographic and objective data) and to identify the successful predictors of the procedure.
The study design includes the following phases:
*Preliminary patient evaluation and verification of inclusion criteria through: Upper GI endoscopy Esophageal high-resolution manometry 24-hours esophageal pH-impedance OFF PPI PPI use GERD-HRQL and RSI questionnaires scores OFF PPI
- 6-month follow-up: Upper GI endoscopy Esophageal high-resolution manometry 24-hours esophageal pH-impedance OFF PPI PPI use GERD-HRQL and RSI questionnaires scores OFF PPI
- 12-months follow-up: Upper GI endoscopy 24-hours esophageal pH-impedance OFF PPI PPI use GERD-HRQL and RSI questionnaires scores OFF PPI
- Yearly clinical follow-up (up to 6 years):
PPI use GERD-HRQL and RSI questionnaires scores OFF PPI

结局指标
主要结局
To evaluate clinical efficacy of endoscopic fundoplication with MUSE as assessed by change in RSI (Reflux Symptom Index) questionnaire score
时间窗: change from baseline RSI at 6 years
RSI is a validate questionnaire to evaluate GERD-related extra- esophageal symptoms. The scale range is (0-45); the higher values represents worse outcomes.
To evaluate clinical efficacy of endoscopic fundoplication with MUSE as assessed by changes in proton pump inhibitors (PPI) consumption
时间窗: change from baseline PPI consumption at 6 years
Gastric antisecretive therapy with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) is the gold standard for the treatment of GERD. This therapy is a chronic therapy with possible side effects. The endoscopic procedure under study aims to halved or discontinue the medical therapy
To evaluate clinical efficacy of endoscopic fundoplication with MUSE as assessed by change in GERD-HRQL (Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease-Health Related quality of life) questionnaire score
时间窗: change from baseline GERD-HRQL at 6 years
GERD-HRQL is a validate questionnaire to evaluate GERD-related esophageal symptoms. The scale range is (0-50); the higher values represents worse outcomes.
