简要总结

This will be a randomized clinical trial examining the efficacy and safety of ARAT (intervention group) in patients with chronic GERD symptoms (typical symptoms of GERD, i.e. heartburn or acid reflux/regurgitation at least twice a week) for the last 6 months.

Patients must have a positive pH test and a negative manometry (no treatment) procedure.

结局指标

主要结局

Change in GERD health related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) score

时间窗: At 3, 6 and 12 months

The primary outcome of quality of life will be measured using the validated GERD related quality of life questionnaire (GERD-HRQL). The total score is 50, and a higher score is associated with more severe symptoms.

次要结局

  • Acid exposure time (AET)(At 3 and 12 months)
  • Esophagitis incidence(At 3 and 12 months)
  • Change in Reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ) score(At 3, 6 and 12 months)
  • Change in Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use(At 3, 6 and 12 months)
  • Adverse events(Post-randomization (Day 1, Day 30, 3rd, 6th and 12th month))
  • Change in Hiatal hernia grading(At 3 and 12 months)
