First seen Apr 03, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study aims to find out how many children in the Czech Republic, aged 8-9 and 12-13, have symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Researchers will recruit 1,000 children through schools and ask them to complete an online questionnaire about reflux symptoms. Those with symptoms will undergo further testing, including a trial of acid-reducing medication, an endoscopy if needed, and a 24-hour monitoring test. The goal is to provide accurate estimates of GERD prevalence and identify related risk factors.
