Hep A, Dolina J. Význam terapeutického testu v diagnostice refluxní choroby jícnu. Interní Med. 2003;5(5):240-242.

Terapeutický test refluxní choroby jícnu je určen zejména pro první linii s cílem odlišit skupinu nemocných, která nevyžaduje další vyšetření specialistou a zejména vyšetření endoskopické. Většinou je používán omeprazol 2 × 20 mg po dobu dvou týdnů. Hodnocení efektivity testu je založeno pouze na hodnocení omezeného počtu subjektivních příznaků, především pyrózy. Endo­skopie by měla být provedena vždy, pokud jsou přítomny alarmující příznaky jako nechutenství, váhový pokles, anémie, při přetrvávajících nebo výrazných potížích a ve věku nad 50 let. Spolehlivost terapeutického testu je samozřejmě limitována.

Significance of Therapeutic test in diagnosis of Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease

Therapeutic test of gastro-oesophageal reflux is intended for front line diagnostic with the aim to find patients who do not need examination by a specialist, mainly endoscopy. Usually, omeprazol 20 mg twice a day is given for two weeks. Assessment of effectivity of treatment is only on several subjective symptoms, mainly pyrosis. Endoscopy should be done always, when alarming signs are present, such as loss of appetite, weight loss, anemia, persistent or pronounced signs, or in patients above 50 years. Reliability of therapeutic test is clearly limited.
