A Critical Appraisal of Current Management Practices for Infant Regurgitation

嬰兒胃食道流當前治療法之嚴正評估

並列摘要


Regurgitation is a common manifestation in infants below the age of one year and a frequent reason of counseling of general practitioners and paediatricians. Current management starts with postural and dietary measures, followed by antacids and prokinetics. Recent issues such as an increased risk of sudden infant death in the prone sleeping position and persistent occult gastro-oesophageal reflux in a subset of infants receiving milk thickeners or thickened “anti-regurgitation formula” challenge the established approach. Therefore, the clinical practices for management of infant regurgitation have been critically evaluated with respect to their efficacy, safety and practical implications. The updated recommendations on the management of infant regurgitation contain 5 phases: (1A) parental reassurance; (1B) milk-thickening agents; (2) prokinetics; (3) positional therapy as an adjuvant therapy; (4A) H2- blockers; (4B) proton pump inhibitors; (5) surgery.
