Impact of laparoscopic Nissen’s fundoplication on response of disease specific symptoms and quality of life
The aim of this study is to establish responsiveness of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptom score, quality of life SF-36 score in GERD with relation to oesophageal manometry and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy following laparoscopic Nissen’s fundoplication (LNF).

Summary: | The aim of this study is to establish responsiveness of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptom score, quality of life SF-36 score in GERD with relation to oesophageal manometry and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy following laparoscopic Nissen’s fundoplication (LNF). Interventional prospective study was done enrolling 77 patients of GERD who respond to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and have undergone LNF, strict diagnostic criteria were followed with GERD score, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, oesophageal manometry, and endoscopically negative patients have further undergone 24-h pH study. Follow-up was done at 12 and 24 months by GERD score, SF-36 score, endoscopy, oesophageal manometry. GERD score shows significant difference in pre-operative and post-operative score with
