This observational registry aims to: 1) record the TIF interventions in patients with esophageal or extra-esophageal symptoms; 2) to monitor the therapy response through the clinical experience in terms of effect on the use and dosage of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and on the GERD-Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) and Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) questionnaires scores; 3) to characterize the treated patients population and the predictive factors of TIF success, identifying the subpopulation who may effectively benefit from TIF.
After being evaluated according to the clinical indication for the treatment of symptomatic gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD with esophageal or extraesophageal symptoms) by transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) and, thus, being treated by TIF using the EsophyX device, all patients giving specific informed consent will enter a 3-year enrollment registry with a 5-year follow-up for each patient through post-TIF routine practice visits and examinations.

| Transoral incisionless fundoplication with EsophyX device (EndoGastric Solutions) | Patients treated by transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) using the EsophyX device (EndoGastric Solutions) for gastro-esophageal reflux disease will be enrolled in the registry and clinically followed-up for 5 years from the date of TIF procedure. |

| Transoral incisionless fundoplication | Device | The intervention of transoral incisionless fundoplication using the EsophyX (EndoGastric Solutions) system allows, through the endoscopic route, the creation of a cardial neovalve of approximately 270 ° by placing 20-28 polyethylene sutures on the cardial circumference, resulting in an anti-reflux plastic functionally similar to that obtained with the surgical fundoplication. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Medical use and dosage | Need to use proton pump inhibitors (PPI), and at what dosage, to control the gastro-esophageal reflux symptoms after intervention | Yearly, up to 5 years from the date of the intervention |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Health Related Quality of Life questionnaire score | Modification of the scores from the gastro-esophageal reflux disease-health related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) questionnaire (off proton pump inhibitors), according to a Likert scale from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 5 (symptoms do not allow for normal daily activity), after intervention compared with baseline | Yearly, up to 5 years from the date of the intervention |
