Abstract
Several studies have reported significant Health-Related Quality of life (HRQOL) impairment in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients compared with the general population. The evaluation of quality of life is important as a parameter for the treatment. Because GERD has diverse symptoms such as esophageal and extraesophageal syndromes, HRQOL of GERD should be determined by both disease and non-disease related factors. The purpose is to overview the HRQOL instruments used in the evaluation of GERD, published reports regarding HRQOL in GERD, and the effects of medical treatments on GERD.
