Stretta procedure : ウィキペディア英語版 | Stretta procedure Stretta is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). A catheter is used to deliver radiofrequency energy to the lower esophageal sphincter, muscle and gastric cardia. The trans-oral Stretta catheter system uses a proprietary application of RF energy that is low-power (5 Watts) and generates low temperatures (65 °C to 85 °C) during a series of 14 one-minute cycles which remodel the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) muscle and gastric cardia. The FDA originally cleared Stretta for use in 2000 and issued an updated clearance on the RF1 generator in 2011. One review found that the treatment improves symptoms〔 while another review found no effect on underlying disease or need for other treatments.〔 ==Medical uses== A 2015 systematic review and meta-analysis in response to the systematic review (no meta-analysis) conducted by SAGES did not support the claims that Stretta was an effective treatment for GERD. A 2012 systematic review found that it improves GERD symptoms.
