Heartburn

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if people can safely skip a test called esophageal manometry before surgery for acid reflux (gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD) or a hiatal hernia. Manometry measures the muscles of the food pipe using a thin tube passed through the nose. The test can be uncomfortable and can delay surgery. The main questions this study aims to answer are whether people can skip manometry and still have good swallowing one year after surgery, and whether skipping the test lowers discomfort, shortens the wait for surgery, and lowers cost. To answer this, researchers will compare two groups. One group will have surgery without manometry. The other group will have manometry first, the way it is usually done. Everyone will get the same operation, a partial wrap called a Toupet fundoplication, so the study tests the value of the test and not the surgery. Participants will be placed by chance into one of the two groups, have the same standard operation, and fill out short questionnaires about their swallowing before surgery and again at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Researchers want to find out if skipping manometry works just as well as the usual approach for people who do not have trouble swallowing before surgery.

This phase III trial studies how well domperidone works in treating patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Domperidone may help control chronic gastrointestinal disorders and their symptoms, such as pain, bloating, and nausea and vomiting, by stimulating contraction of the stomach to increase its ability to empty itself of food.

Researchers hope to determine how often small intestinal bacterial overgrowth occurs after taking proton pump inhibitors.

The main objective of the study is to compare the maternal, fetal, and infant outcomes of pregnant women who are exposed to vonoprazan during pregnancy with outcomes of an internal comparison cohort of pregnant women who are unexposed to vonoprazan during pregnancy but who may be exposed to other products for the treatment of conditions for which vonoprazan may be prescribed.
