Consensus on endoscopic anterior fundoplication with MUSE for gastroesophageal reflux disease / 中华消化杂志

ABSTRACT

Endoscopic anterior fundoplication with the MUSE is an endoscopic therapy that combines ultrasound and endoscopic anti-reflux technology for moderate to severe gastroesophageal reflux disease. Training and learning procedures are required to obtain qualifications for this endoscopic therapy before clinical operations. At present, there is limited high-quality evidence-based medical evidence on MUSE treatment, and lack of expert consensus or guidance for training and the standard of MUSE therapy procedure. This consensus is based on the published literature, and formulated by experts with MUSE clinical experience in China, to provide guidance for the training and clinical standard operation of this technique.
