Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assessment of quality of life in severe heart failure : An instrument for clinical use

TL;DR: In this randomized multicentre trial, antireflux surgery is found to be very efficacious in controlling GORD, a level of control which could also be achieved by omeprazole provided that advantage was taken of the opportunity of adjusting the dose.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Reflux Disease Questionnaire: a measure for assessment of treatment response in clinical trials
Michael J. Shaw,John Dent,Timothy J. Beebe,Ola Junghard,Ingela Wiklund,Tore Lind,Folke Johnsson +6 more
TL;DR: There is strong evidence that the RDQ is amenable to translation and represents a viable instrument for assessing response to treatment, and symptom severity, and a good positive correlation between physician severity ratings and RDQ scale scores was seen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing symptoms in gastroesophageal reflux disease: how well do clinicians' assessments agree with those of their patients?
TL;DR: The agreement between clinicians and patients in their assessments of the severity of reflux symptoms is poor, particularly before treatment and for more severe symptoms, and greater reliance on patient assessments may be appropriate.
Journal ArticleDOI
