On our 51st podcast episode, we discussed Gastroesophageal Reflux (GER) and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). In the episode, we spotlight the 2018 clinical practice guidelines by the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) and the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN).

The guidelines are very detailed, but within them are some great tables on signs and symptoms associated with reflux and “red flag” symptoms that suggest disorders other than reflux. The algorithms depict and simplify the suggested management path for infants with gastroesophageal reflux.
