Endoscopy Live: GERD & Barrett's Esophagus: The Journey Continues

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript features a discussion about two patient cases. In the first case, a 48-year-old man with refractory heartburn is presented, with options for further treatment discussed, such as antireflux surgery, pH study off medication, pH impedance on medication, or repeating an endoscopy. A poll is taken, and there is a tie between doing a pH study off medication or pH impedance on medication. The second case involves a 36-year-old patient with dysphagia, and HRM findings are discussed to determine a diagnosis, with options including achalasia, EG junction outflow obstruction, esophageal spasm, hypercontractile esophagus, or ineffective esophageal motility. There is a discussion about treatment options for different types of achalasia and jackhammer esophagus. The video also includes a Q&A session with experts. No credits are mentioned in the transcript.
