Summary

This observational study follows 200 adults with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who are scheduled for antireflux surgery in Poland. Researchers collect data on surgical techniques, symptom relief, quality of life, and complications over 12 months. The goal is to identify which patient and procedure factors are linked to the best outcomes in routine practice.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help identify which patients and surgical approaches lead to the best long-term relief from GERD symptoms.
What could go wrong
As an observational study, it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply outside Poland or beyond the specific surgical practices observed.

Who is studied

Adult patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) undergoing elective antireflux surgery at participating surgical centers across Poland. Consecutive eligible patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be prospectively enrolled. All diagnostic evaluation, surgical treatment, and postoperative follow-up will be performed according to the routine clinical practice of each participating center. The study is observational and does not alter standard patient management. Demographic, clinical, operative, and follow-up data will be collected to evaluate current surgical practice and treatment outcomes after antireflux surgery.
