| case study on gerd: Cases on Medical Nutrition Therapy for Gastrointestinal Disorders Aljaaly, Elham Abbas, Khalifa, Nahlaa Abdelwahab, Naaman, Rouba Khalil, Bakhsh, Manar Abduljalil, 2020-11-06 Medical nutrition therapy plays a central role in the management of diseases including reducing disease risk, slowing disease progression, and monitoring nutritional status. Though a nutrition care process has been implemented in some countries, many do not have a national standard for nutrition and dietetic practices for different diseases including the scope of gastrointestinal disorders. Moreover, there is no guidance to dietetic practice by most of the governing bodies of the world. Cases on Medical Nutrition Therapy for Gastrointestinal Disorders presents real-world case studies on nutrition assessment, diagnosis, intervention, monitoring, and evaluation standards and practices. Moreover, the cases provide critical updates on the use of medical nutrition therapy for gastrointestinal disorders that include but are not limited to Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, constipation, and bowel obstructions and discusses strategies for the prevention and management of these disorders. Registered dietitians, dietetic interns, nutritionists, healthcare professionals, researchers, academicians, and students will benefit from the scenarios presented within this book. |

| case study on gerd: GERD Parakrama T. Chandrasoma, Tom R. DeMeester, 2010-07-26 Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is one of the most common maladies of mankind. Approximately 40% of the adult population of the USA suffers from significant heartburn and the numerous antacids advertised incessantly on national television represents a $8 billion per year drug market. The ability to control acid secretion with the increasingly effective acid-suppressive agents such as the H2 blockers (pepcid, zantac) and proton pump inhibitors (nexium, prevacid) has given physicians an excellent method of treating the symptoms of acid reflux.Unfortunately, this has not eradicated reflux disease. It has just changed its nature. While heartburn, ulceration and strictures have become rare, reflux-induced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus is becoming increasingly common. Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and gastric cardia is now the most rapidly increasing cancer type in the Western world.The increasing incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma has created an enormous interest and stimulus for research in this area. GERD brings together a vast amount of disparate literature and presents the entire pathogenesis of reflux disease in one place. In addition to providing a new concept of how gastroesophageal reflux causes cellular changes in the esophagus, GERD also offers a complete solution to a problem that has confused physicians for over a century. Both clinical and pathological information about reflux disease and its treatment are presented. GERD is meant to be used as a comprehensive reference for gastroenterologists, esophageal surgeons, and pathologists alike. - Outlines how gastroesophageal reflux causes cellular changes in the esophagus - Brings together the pathogenesis of the disease in one source and applies it toward clinical treatment - Tom DeMeester is THE leading international expert on reflux disease; Parakrama Chandrasoma is one of the leading pathologists in the area - Book contains approximately 350 illustrations - Ancillary web site features color illustrations: www.chandrasoma.com |

| case study on gerd: Integrative Gastroenterology Gerard E. Mullin, Marvin Singh, Alyssa Parian, 2019-09-27 Digestive complaints have become increasingly common. Recent statistics show that gastrointestinal complaints account for nearly a third of all visits to primary care doctors and that nearly one in two Americans suffer from digestive disease. Millions more suffer from conditions such as migraine headaches, arthritis, mood disorders, chronic fatigue, asthma, allergies, and menstrual dysfunction, which are all related to a disorder in digestive health. Despite the evidence in support of integrative approaches to treatment and prevention of digestive symptoms, these approaches are largely overlooked in treating gastrointestinal disorders. Rather, treatment plans tend to be exclusively pharmacologically based and have appreciable toxicity. Integrative Gastroenterology, Second edition, is a comprehensive guide to helping health care practitioners understand and appreciate how to manage patients with gastrointestinal conditions integrating conventional and complimentary approaches. This text reviews the latest advances in science and research with regards to the gut microbiome, physiology, and interconnections between the gut and other organ systems.

This ground-breaking new approach -WHAT YOU EAT AFFECTS BACTERIA IN YOUR GUT- supported by a clinical study was presented at the recent Digestive Disease Week meeting in May, 2013 to provide a different treatment option to gastroenterologists for acid reflux and GERD. What people are saying about the Fast Tract Digestion Heartburn: I weaned myself off proton pump inhibitors, and have avoided surgery completely. My quality of life is soooo much better. My gastroenterologists and surgeons are speechless.... His diet works. Period. Don't give up on it. Stick it out, and you will see the results.... I have never written a review on Amazon before, and am not being paid to say this. I feel so strongly about this book, that I had to let the world know. --- Joey I had been on PPI medication for over 10 years and tried from time to time to get off of them. But the acid reflux that returned was excruciating. I found this book, followed its advice and was so pleasantly surprised how well it works. Haven't taken a PPI in a month. The book is easy to read and understand and the recipes are really good. The charts in the book also make it easy to keep track of what and how much you can eat. I'd recommend this book to anyone who has GERD, takes medication for it and wants to get off of PPI's. --- DJ In the recent blog articles by the New York Time Best Seller Co-author of Protein Power, Dr. Mike Eades mentions the effectiveness of the Fast Tract Diet for GERD: http://www.proteinpower.com/drmike/gerdacid-reflux/gerd-treat-low-high-carb-diet/ http://www.proteinpower.com/drmike/gerdacid-reflux/gerd-treatment-nutrition-vs-drugs-3/ Finally, after many years no more heartburn; Also no more bloating. I can't believe it. Why can't the gastroenerologists leave the pills alone. --- Henry T Ulrich Thanks to Fast Tract Digestion diet and the consultative help of Norm Robillard via the Digestive Health Institute, I am now off meds, taking just an occasional TUMS. I feel better than I have since being diagnosed with GERD nearly two years ago. I expect that I will always need to be careful about what I eat, but it is a graded system that enables me to try gradual adjustments. --- Sunbeam48 According to Alana Sugar, a certified nutritionist with close to 25 years in practice: Dr. Robillard, your work has done the greatest service of all time for those of us facing these sorts of gut issues. The diet you have outlined is nutritionally balanced and safe! I tell my clients about your book and your work; I want everybody to know! |

| case study on gerd: GERD Markus Büchler, 1997-01-01 This volume provides a detailed and comprehensive review of current knowledge concerning all aspects of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The opening chapters on its pathogenesis and epidemiology include discussions of Helicobacter pylori as an etiological agent, and Barrett's esophagus. The bulk of the volume is taken up with critical reviews of all the contemporary approaches to GERD - both medical and surgical (open and laparoscopic) - and presents the early results from laparoscopic trials throughout the world. The book concludes with detailed descriptions from expert practitioners of the various alternative laparoscopic fundoplication techniques. This timely publication will be of interest not only to gastroenterologists and gastrointestinal surgeons, but to all doctors and general practitioners who must advise and prescribe treatment for patients with this common, distressing, but remediable complaint. |
| case study on gerd: GERD David A. Olle, 2015-06-22 Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), also known as acid reflux, is a very common condition affecting around 20-40 % of the population over a one year period. This book describes all the essential features of GERD for the general public in an engaging and stimulating manner that facilitates learning and reinforcement. This is accomplished by applying methods that accommodate various learning styles, including the use of illustrations, tables, charts, and boxes that highlight definitions, facts, or website links for more detailed information. FEATURES: • Provides questions and answers about the features, definitions, and descriptions of GERD • Includes numerous in-text Web links to WebMD, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), USDA, the CDC, pharmaceutical companies, YouTube, and other sites with animations, diets, practical case studies, and tools related to GERD. SELECTED TOPICS: Causes, risk factors, symptoms, degrees of GERD, anatomy and physiology of the esophagus, lower esophageal sphincter and stomach as it relates to GERD, complications, diagnostic tests, and treatments based on lifestyle modifications, medications, endoscopic procedures, and surgery, diets. |
| case study on gerd: Aging and the Gastrointestinal Tract Alberto Pilotto, Peter Malfertheiner, Peter R. Holt, 2003 With the dramatic increase of the aging population, the study and care of gastrointestinal disorders in the elderly have become priority topics for both clinicians and researchers. The geriatric approach which includes the epidemiology and pharmacokinetics of drugs as well as a comprehensive multidimensional assessment is particularly important in managing older patients with gastrointestinal disorders, since these patients are likely to have multiple interacting problems that interfere with their daily function and complicate their treatment. This book presents the results of recent studies in geriatric gastroenterology and reviews both basic and clinical aspects of the field. An important section is devoted to the close examination of the structural and functional effects of aging on the physiology of the gastrointestinal tract. Recent advances in diagnostic tools and the treatment of elderly patients with dysphagia and gastroesophageal reflux disease as well as with NSAID-related or Helicobacter pylori-associated gastroduodenal diseases are reported in updated chapters. The physician's approach to the management of disorders of the small intestine, colon, pancreas and liver is discussed, highlighting the specific aspects of such disorders in old age. As it is important that the geriatric assessment of elderly patients is carried out by a multidisciplinary team which includes experienced specialists as well as primary care physicians and community health workers, the book addresses a wide readership: general physicians, specialists in geriatrics and gastroenterology and health care providers involved in planning care for elderly patients with gastrointestinal disorders. |
