ABSTRACT

Refluxo gastroesofágico patológico é entidade frequente na população geral. Ocorre associada a queixas digestivas e extradigestivas como cardíacas, respiratórias e otorrinolaringológicas assim como na forma assintomática. Embora a correlação de RGE com doenças respiratórias tenha tido relatos frequentes , o mesmo não ocorreu com DPOC .Foram estudados 29 pacientes ambulatoriais portadores de DPOC através de questionário, pHmetria esofágica distal e proximal durante 24 hs e medidas de função pulmonar. Encontrou-se 57 por cento de RGE patológicos proximais e distais. Significância estatistíca (p < 0,05) foi observada entre o Indice de Massa Corpórea (IMC) e RGE proximal. Concluiu-se que o RGE patológico foi expressivo em DPOC e não houve correlação entre as queixas otorrinolaringológicas e RGE proximal como relatado na literatura.Pathological gastroesophageal reflux is a very frequent condition among general population.It can be found in assimptomatic patients or related to digestive, cardiac, respiratory and otorhinolaringological complains.Although there were many reports concerning to respiratory diseases and GERD ,the relationship between GERD and COPD is not well established. 29 out patients with COPD were studied. Questionnaires were answered, esophageal distal and proximal pHmonitorings were performed during 24 hours as well as respiratory functional tests. Proximal and distal pathological refluxes were registered in 57 per cent of all patients. Statistical significance (p < 0.05) was observed concerning to proximal pathological reflux and body mass index. COPD has a high prevalence of GERD. Otorhinolaringological symptoms were not correlated to proximal reflux as previously reported...
