Scope

Main technical content: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic and common disease of the digestive system, which refers to a disease caused by the reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus, leading to discomfort symptoms and/or complications. It includes two types of syndromes: esophageal and extrathoracic. The typical symptoms include heartburn, reflux (including acid taste or just acid water called reflux), etc. It may also be accompanied by extrathoracic symptoms such as cough and asthma. Clinically, GERD is divided into three types: non-erosive reflux disease, reflux esophagitis, and Barrett's esophagus. The incidence of this disease is increasing worldwide, seriously affecting patients' health and quality of life. The revised guideline aims to apply the concept of "preventing disease before it occurs" in traditional Chinese medicine, give full play to the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in prevention and health care, and develop medical practice plans for preventing GERD before it occurs, treating it once it occurs, and preventing recurrence after treatment, so as to reduce the burden of diagnosis and treatment on patients and improve their quality of life. The practice plans provided by this guideline will help medical workers pay more attention to the application of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of GERD, help the public improve their understanding of the disease and pay more attention to their own health, and help respond to the national call for vigorously developing traditional Chinese medicine. China has a vast territory and a large population, and traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "adapting to time, place, and people". Although this guideline provides some practice plans, specific applications still need to consider factors such as climate, region, and individual differences, and make comprehensive judgments in order to better serve patients' health.
