الوصف: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a prevalent clinical condition, is often attributed to aberrant esophageal motility, leading to gastric content reflux and associated symptoms or complications. The rising incidence of GERD presents an escalating healthcare challenge. Endoscopic and esophageal reflux monitoring can provide a basis for the diagnosis of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease, but when the diagnostic basis is at an inconclusive value, some additional supportive evidence will be needed. Advanced technology is the key to improving patient diagnosis, accurate assessment, and the development of effective treatment strategies. High-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM) and endoscopic functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) represent the forefront of esophageal motility assessment. HREM, an evolution of traditional esophageal manometry, is considered the benchmark for identifying esophageal motility disorders. Its widespread application in esophageal dynamics research highlights its diagnostic significance. Concurrently, EndoFLIP’s emerging clinical relevance is evident in diagnosing and guiding the treatment of coexisting esophageal motility issues. This review integrates contemporary research to delineate the contributions of HREM, EndoFLIP, and novel technologies in GERD. It examines their efficacy in facilitating an accurate diagnosis, differentiating similar gastrointestinal disorders, quantifying the extent of reflux, assessing the severity of the disease, forecasting patient responsiveness to proton pump inhibitor therapy, and guiding decisions for surgical interventions. The overarching aim is to deepen the understanding of GERD’s underlying mechanisms and advance the formulation of holistic, efficacious treatment approaches.
