NEW INVESTIGATIONAL TOOLS TO ASSESS AND IMPROVE REFLUX SYMPTOMS IN A COHORT OF SINGERS, A SPECIFIC PROFESSIONAL GROUP

Abstract

The professional category of singers deserves a careful anthropometric, metabolic and lifestyle survey in relation also to esophageal and extraesophageal GERD. A simple rieducation programme leads to improved learingeal GERD signs and could increase the compliance and the well-being of singers, avoiding unnecessary investigations and therapies. Alimentary lifestyle questionnaire appears as a novel investigational tool to assess, in a group of specific professional figures as singers, bad alimentary habits, which may provoke reflux symptoms, and to follow up subjects in the management and prevention of GERD and dyspeptic disorders.
