BLOCKS K+/H+ PUMPS IN PARIETAL CELLS WITHIN THE STOMACH.

36
Q

Define GORD

A

chronic reflux disorder, caused by failure of patency of los.

37
Q

What is odynophagia?

A

Pain with swallowing

38
Q

Which investigation is the gold standard for diagnosis of GORD.

A

Ambulatory oesophageal pH monitoring.

39
Q

What is a reflux episode defined as?

A

pH <4 (24-48 hours)

40
Q

A barium swallow can be used to _____

A

examine upper GI disorders, i.e. strictures.

41
Q

What investigation is used to assess the motor function of the UES and LEs?

A

Oesophageal Manometry.

42
Q

What is an Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy?

A

Diagnostic endoscopic procedure that visualises the upper part of the GI tract (up to duodenum). minimally invasive.

43
Q

Treatment for H.Pylori infection?

A

PPI and 2x antibiotic therapy.

44
Q

Drugs ending in ‘tidine’ are _____.

A

H2 antagonists. These reduce stomach acid by blocking H2 receptors.

45
Q

What is a nissen fundoplication?

A
  • Upper part of stomach is wrapped around LES to strengthen the sphincter, prevent reflux and repair hernia.
