Abstract
Decreased distal esophageal amplitude encountered as hypoperistalsis or even aperistalsis was associated with increased reflux and GIT scores (negatively correlated) UCLA SCTC_GIT 2.0 questionnaires. The GIT2.0 is easy to use and can serve as an indicator that further testing of the GI tract, including the esophagus, is indicated.
