Abstract

GERD is ubiquitous throughout the adult population in the United States. It commonly adversely affects quality of life and occasionally causes life-threatening complications. The new and emerging medical and endoscopic therapies for GERD and the new management strategies for BE should dramatically reduce the clinical toll of this disease on society.
