A42 NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN ILD RESEARCH: In Pulmonary Fibrosis Subjects, Smaller Lung Volumes Are Associated With A Greater Lower Esophageal Sphincter Pressure

Rationale: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in pulmonary fibrosis is thought to lead to exacerbations of disease as well as a faster decline in lung function. Conclusion: A decrease in FVC in pulmonary fibrosis subjects is associated with greater change in esophageal pressure during tidal brea...

Zusammenfassung:Rationale: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in pulmonary fibrosis is thought to lead to exacerbations of disease as well as a faster decline in lung function. Conclusion: A decrease in FVC in pulmonary fibrosis subjects is associated with greater change in esophageal pressure during tidal breathing, but no difference in the amount of reflux.
