Zusammenfassung
Die Therapie der gastro-ösophagealen Refluxkrankheit ist in der Mehrzahl der Fälle unkompliziert. Etwa 20% aller Patienten klagen jedoch auch unter Standardtherapie mit Protonenpumpeninhibitoren über Symptome und gelten demnach als therapieresistent. Die Ursache hierfür mag zum einem in einem gestörten Metabolismus dieser Substanzen liegen, weit häufiger liegt jedoch ein auch unter Säureinhibition bestehender nicht- bzw. schwach-saurer Reflux vor. Verlässlich objektivierbar diagnostiziert werden kann der nicht-/schwach-saure Reflux derzeit nur mit Hilfe einer kombinierten Langzeit-pH-Metrie/Impedanzmessung. Das therapeutische Spektrum nach Diagnosestellung ist derzeit noch begrenzt, etablierte Verfahren existieren nicht. Prinzipiell in Frage kommen jedoch medikamentöse, endoskopische als auch chirurgische Maßnahmen
Summary
The therapy of gastroesophageael reflux disease (GERD) is uncomplicated in most cases. However, 20 % of GERD patients suffer from reflux-associated symptoms under therapy with protone pump inhibitors (PPI). The cause of this resistance to PPI-therapy remains unclear. Today, the most discussed theory is the presence of the non- or weakly acidic reflux.
Objective measurements of the weakly/non-acidic reflux are available since the development of intraluminal impedance monitoring in combination with pH-monitoring.
The therapy of weakly/non-acidic GERD is not well established, so far. In the course of clinical studies the therapeutic spectrum (i. e. modification of the medical therapy, endoscopic anti-reflux procedures or surgical therapy) has to be tested.
