Do you regularly manage patients with GERD?

Need a practical tool to guide you through best
patient care and management?

Highly practical, expertly-written, and packed with useful text
tools like case histories, pitfall boxes and management algorithms,
this convenient and user-friendly manual provides you with
complete clinical guidance to gastroesophageal reflux disease
(GERD), one of the most common conditions that gastroenterologists
face every day.

The book is divided into three parts:

* An overview of GERD, including pathophysiology,
diagnosis, general management strategies and side effects from
medical and surgical GERD therapies

* Management of specific clinical presentations such as
Refractory GERD, Laryngopharyngeal Reflux, Noncardiac Chest
Pain, and GERD-Related Dysphagia

* Barrett's Esophagus and GERD, including diagnosis,
surveillance and treatment options

With a strong focus on the clinical management of GERD and with
contributions from the world's leading authorities on the
topic, Practical Manual of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
is the perfect tool for the modern day gastroenterologist - both at
specialist level and in training - managing this extremely
prevalent condition.
