Study summary

Achalasia is an uncommon disorder that results from the degeneration of ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus in the lower esophageal wall. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive procedure capable of overcoming limitations of achalasia treatments. This study aimed to: 1) identify the prevalence of reflux esophagitis and asymptomatic GERD in patients who underwent POEM, and 2) evaluate patient and intraprocedural variables associated with post-POEM GERD.

Study population

All patients treated at a single center who had a complete GERD evaluation after POEM will be included in the study. Demographics, preoperative and follow-up data, results of functional studies and procedural data will be collected and analyzed.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Males and females who are 18 years of age and older and are willing to sign an Form (ICF)
  2. Achalasia patients who underwent POEM

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Lack of written consent for participation in the study
  2. Conditions which are to Esophagogastroscopy and High-resolution Esophageal Manometry
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 18, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
