NORWALK, Connecticut, 24 de abril de 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mederi Therapeutics ha anunciado que la Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons (Sociedad de Cirujanos Gastrointestinales y Endoscópicos Estadounidenses, SAGES) emitió recientemente una declaración de Pauta de Clinical Spotlight Review (Revisión Clínica Enfocada, CSR) sobre la Terapia Stretta para la enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE). La CSR, así como otros datos nuevos, se presentó durante un simposio de la industria en la reciente Reunión Anual de SAGES 2017 en Houston, Texas.

Stretta is a non-surgical treatment option for GERD that is an option for patients when symptoms persist despite medications. It is a versatile option that addresses the special needs of chronic GERD patients like: Patients whose GERD symptoms don't respond to PPIs, patients who are concerned about taking medications long-term, patients with GERD post-bariatric procedures, patients with respiratory symptoms of GERD (LPR), and patients who still have GERD post-fundoplication or other anti–reflux surgery. Importantly, Stretta does not preclude any other treatment option. (PRNewsfoto/Mederi Therapeutics)

La nueva CSR de Tratamientos Endoluminales para Enfermedad por Reflujo Gastroesofágico (ERGE), publicada en línea, revisa datos existentes y proporciona respuestas basadas en evidencia a preguntas de relevancia clínica fundamental. La CSR, desarrollada por la Comisión de Pautas de la SAGES, detalla resultados de Stretta en comparación con medicamentos o cirugía, junto con seguridad, durabilidad a largo plazo y curva de aprendizaje de procedimiento.

La recomendación de la CSR expresa: "Basándose en las evidencias existentes, Stretta mejora notablemente las calificaciones de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud, las calificaciones de acidez, la incidencia de esofagitis, y la exposición de ácido esofágico en pacientes con ERGE". Sobre los beneficios de Stretta, la CSR concluyó: "La eficacia de Stretta disminuye algo con el tiempo, pero se han descrito efectos persistentes hasta por 10 años en pacientes de ERGE seleccionados apropiadamente. Stretta es más eficaz que PPI, pero menos que la fundoplicación. Stretta es segura para adultos y tiene una breve curva de aprendizaje. (Nivel de evidencia +++, fuerte recomendación)".

Brian Dunkin, MD, presidente anterior de la SAGES, director de Cirugía Endoscópica en el Hospital Metodista de Houston, y director médico del Instituto Metodista de Houston para Tecnología, Innovación y Educación (MITIESM) en Houston, Texas, señaló el compromiso de la SAGES de apoyar tecnologías probadas e innovadoras que ofrecen opciones seguras, efectivas y duraderas para los pacientes. "La comisión de Pautas de la SAGES reconoce el problema de la ERGE crónica, señalando que del 25 al 42% de los pacientes con ERGE no logran una respuesta adecuada a un tratamiento inicial de 4 a 8 semanas con inhibidores de la bomba de protones (PPI). A pesar de la eficacia de la cirugía, es invasiva, requiere hospitalización y tiene un riesgo de complicaciones a corto y a largo plazo. Una "terapia media" como Stretta, que proporciona una opción entre medicamentos y cirugía, es una alternativa atractiva tanto para pacientes como para médicos y pagadores".

Mederi celebró un simposio en la Reunión Anual de SAGES 2017 que destacó la nueva CSR, así como un recién publicado Meta-Análisis de Stretta. El simposio presentó perspectivas sobre el uso de Stretta para tratar ERGE tanto por un gastroenterólogo como por un cirujano. Los conferencistas, el doctor Nirav Thosani, director de Gastroenterología y director de Endoscopía Avanzada en el Centro Ertan de Enfermedades Digestivas en el Hospital Memorial Hermann, y el doctor Samer Mattar, profesor y jefe de Servicios Bariátricos en la Universidad de Ciencias de la Salud de Oregon, presentaron los últimos datos de Stretta y su visión de los tratamientos para la ERGE, describiendo donde Stretta encaja en su práctica, y compartieron experiencias positivas con Stretta en el tratamiento de pacientes con ERGE.

ACERCA DE MEDERI® Y STRETTA® 
Mederi fabrica dispositivos innovadores que utilizan energía de radiofrecuencia (RF) no ablativa para tratar enfermedades digestivas. Stretta es un tratamiento endoscópico, no quirúrgico, que ha demostrado ser seguro y efectivo para el tratamiento de ERGE en 40 estudios y está disponible en todo el mundo.
