What is gastroesophageal reflux?

Gastroesophageal reflux is defined as passage of stomach contents into the esophagus with or without accompanied regurgitation (spitting up) and vomiting. It is normal physiologic process that occurs throughout the day in infants and less often in children and adolescents. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the reflux that causes troublesome symptoms or leads to medical complications. The diagnoses of the gastroesophageal reflux and GERD are based on the history and physical examination. Diagnostic tests, such as the endoscopy, barium study, multiple intraluminal impedance, and pH monitoring, are reserved for when there are a typical symptoms, warning signs, doubts about the diagnosis, or suspected complications or treatment failure. In infants, most regurgitation resolves by 12 months of age and does not require the treatment.

Gastroesophageal reflux in children is passage of stomach contents into the esophagus. It is normal physiologic process, occurring throughout the day in infants and less often in children and adolescents, typically after meals. It may be asymptomatic or cause mild, non troubling symptoms such as the regurgitation or occasional vomiting. Regurgitation (spitting up) is passive movement of stomach contents into the pharynx or mouth. Vomiting is forceful movement of stomach contents through the mouth by autonomic and voluntary muscle contractions, sometimes triggered by reflux.
