Brief summary
POEM is a minimally invasive endoscopic therapy that is highly efficacy in the treatment of achalasia of any type. POEM has an increased risk of GERD. Systematic PPI therapy has never been studied for the prevention of post-POEM GERD. The investigators wish to retrospectively compare patients who have received routine PPI therapy vs. patients who don't.
