Refractory heartburn despite acid suppression may be explained by ongoing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or functional heartburn (FH), i.e., symptoms without evidence of GERD. Impedance-pH monitoring (impedance-pH) detects acid and nonacid reflux and is useful for evaluating acid-suppressed, refractory patients.

Are functional heartburn and functional dyspepsia one disorder?
Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2010The characteristics of functional heartburn remain poorly understood. Savarino et al. have now demonstrated that functional heartburn has more in common with functional dyspepsia than with nonerosive reflux disease. This study suggests that there is substantial overlap between functional heartburn and functional dyspepsia, and possibly that these two ...

The Role of Esophageal Hypersensitivity in Functional Heartburn
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2017Functional heartburn (FH) is defined as a functional esophageal disorder characterized by symptoms of chronic heartburn with no apparent correlation to acid or nonacid reflux. In addition, its symptoms persist despite the lack of organic abnormalities or inflammation, esophageal motility disorders, or metabolic disorders. Although conditions presenting

Gastroesophageal reflux disease-related and functional heartburn
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2016Patients who continue to experience heartburn symptoms despite adequate-dose proton pump inhibitor therapy have unmet clinical needs. In this review, we focus on the most recent findings related to the mechanism of heartburn symptom generation, and on the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease-related and functional heartburn.The immunological ...

VISCERAL SENSITIVITY IN FUNCTIONAL HEARTBURN IS NOT ORGAN SPECIFIC
American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2003Purpose: Nomenclature and diagnostic criteria of functional GI disorders have become organ specific. Stratification by organ system may limit research and treatment algorithms and appears to be an inappropriate paradigm when the complex symptoms associated with functional disorders are catalogued.

Nonerosive reflux disease and functional heartburn are clearly separate entities
European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2013To The Editor: We read with interest the paper by Blaga et al on the clinical and functional profiles of patients with functional heartburn (FH) (1). The Authors must be congratulated because this is one of the first studies in which the population of FH is clearly separated from the other subgroups of NERD on the basis of an objective method (i.e ...

Functional heartburn: misdiagnosed gastroesophageal reflux or a distinct entity?
Nature Clinical Practice Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2005For many years functional heartburn has been linked to gastroesophageal reflux disease, despite a number of characteristics that set this disorder apart. As such little has been researched regarding the physiology and treatment of patients with functional heartburn as a distinct entity.

[Functional heartburn--update 2013].
MMW Fortschritte der Medizin, 2014Functional heartburn is a frequent disease which should be considered when heartburn does not respond to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment. Functional heartburn is defined in the Rome-III-criteria. Differential diagnoses like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), non erosive reflux disease (NERD) and hypertensive esophagus are diagnosed employing
