Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary outcome include the complete eradication of dysplasia in the Barrett's esophagus after treatment with radiofrequency, confirmed by endoscopy and biopsies performed after the intervention. ;Primary outcome include the complete eradication of intestinal metaplasia in the Barrett's esophagus after treatment with radiofrequency, confirmed by endoscopy and biopsies performed after the intervention. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the rate of recurrence of dysplasia confirmed by any degree of dysplasia found in biopsies after radiofrequency treatment;Evaluate complications resulting from the procedure, including pain, fever, perforation, mucosal lacerations, stenosis, significant bleeding (with hemodynamic repercussion and / or need for blood transfusion);Evaluate if there are differences in the rates of recurrence of intestinal metaplasia in patients with and without fundoplication. The fundoplication is expected to protect against recurrence of intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia. | — |
