The devices of GERD serves as a substitute for management of heartburn, because of low rate of success and failure in clinical trials. Hence, very limited acceptance of devices of GERD management contribute for the rising demand of drugs having acid neutralizing property, as the major therapy approach.
Nevertheless, the advent of devices which are minimally invasive to address anatomical defects are gaining popularity coupled with supportive evidence from clinical data for performing various procedures including trans oral fundoplication, which helps in preventing reflux of non-acid and acid contents. The adoption of these devices have been further reinforced in the U.S. in 2016 with the advent of a CPT code (43210) which helps in facilitating reimbursement process.
