Abstract:
Background:Gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)is a common disorder of digestive system,however,some of patients are not responding to conventional 4-8 weeks proton pump inhibitor therapy. Aims:To investigate the effect of digital music gastric electrical pacing on clinical symptoms,anxiety and depression and esophageal motility in patients with refractory GERD. Methods:Fifty-three patients with refractory GERD from Jan. 2014 to Oct. 2015 at the Third Affiliated Hospital,the Third Military Medical University were recruited. All of them fulfilled the Montreal definition of GERD. Digital music gastric electrical pacing was performed for 15 days and the efficacy was evaluated by clinical symptom scoring,Hamilton anxiety scale( HAMA),Hamilton depression scale( HAMD)and esophageal motility manometry. Results:After 15-day treatment,the main symptoms,including heartburn,daytime and nocturnal acid reflux,upper abdominal pain,nausea,and sleep disorder were significantly improved(P < 0. 001). A great proportion of patients were complicated with anxiety and/ or depression at recruitment,and after treatment the scores of HAMA and HAMD were decreased significantly(P < 0. 001). Meanwhile,the lower esophageal sphincter resting pressure(LESP),distal wave amplitude,peristaltic wave duration,speed of peristaltic wave and distal contraction integral after treatment were significantly increased as compared with the baseline values(P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Digital music gastric electrical pacing is effective for treatment of refractory GERD with increase of LESP and esophageal body motility. The clinical symptoms and anxiety and depression are improved simultaneously. Digital music gastric electrical pacing is expected to be a new choice of non-medicine treatment for esophageal motility disorders.
