Slide 4-

Pathophysiology dysfunction of LES (lower esophageal sphincter) barrier function: prevents reflux by mutual contraction with diaphragm retains high pressure during gastric digestion
Slide 5-

Risk factors prolonged gastric emptying obesity pregnancy hiatal hernia trauma transient LES relaxation - nocturnal, postprandial
