New study investigates why some patients get worse reflux after esophagus surgery
NCT ID NCT06835374
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 200 adults to compare acid reflux-related damage in two groups: people who had a procedure called POEM for achalasia (a swallowing disorder) and people without any swallowing problems. Researchers will use endoscopy and acid monitoring to see if the pattern of esophageal erosions differs between the groups. The goal is to better understand reflux after POEM and improve future care.
