“Gastroesophageal reflux disease, long-term easy to be misdiagnosed as asthma, coronary heart disease, pharyngitis, rhinitis, etc., the patient is in danger of suffocation at any time, doctors must help to find the patient, the correct treatment.” On the 28th, Wang Zhonghao, an expert in vascular surgery and a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, issued an appeal to remind doctors and patients to pay attention to the correct treatment. Gastroesophageal reflux disease, is the reflux of stomach and duodenal contents into the esophagus causing symptoms such as acid reflux, heartburn, chest pain or damage to the esophageal mucosa. According to research, the incidence of GERD is quietly increasing due to stressful work, frequent socializing, and irregular meals, with about 7 to 9 out of every 100 people suffering from this disease. However, the awareness rate of this disease is not high, and although many patients have been suffering from GERD for a long time, the number of people who actively seek medical advice is a minority, and the number of patients who are properly treated is the tip of the iceberg. Wang Zhonghao himself has gone through the process of being misdiagnosed, self-correcting, and saving others. Wang was diagnosed with “allergic rhinitis” and “bronchial asthma” more than three years ago, and had to be rescued several times. He was alerted by a foreign specialist to go to the gastroenterology department for a checkup, which showed that he had GERD. Later, he was treated surgically with good results. Since then, based on his personal experience and rich clinical experience, Wang Zhonghao has proposed an innovative theory of “gastroesophageal laryngotracheal syndrome”, improved the diagnostic criteria, and developed treatment methods combining drugs, endoscopic radiofrequency and laparoscopic surgery. ”The accelerated pace of work, irregular diet and strong mental stress can all be factors that trigger the disease.” Wang Zhonghao said that it is not difficult to diagnose the three “typical symptoms” of acid reflux, heartburn and chest pain, but some patients with severe disease encountered in the clinic do not have these typical symptoms, and the manifestations are diverse and misdiagnosis occurs repeatedly. Therefore, he called for the early diagnosis at a specialist clinic to confirm the presence of frequent typical symptoms and prescribe the right medicine.
