Laryngopharyngeal Reflux (LPR) is a disease of the upper aerodigestive tract resulting from direct and/or indirect effects of gastric contents. Laryngologist Dr. Inna Husain explains atypical LPR presentations and when to suspect that LPR or extralaryngeal pathology is at play in patients with chronic and nonspecific symptoms.
The standard workup for suspected laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) typically involves 24 hour pH impedance testing and flexible laryngoscopy whereas treatment of typical LPR usually consists of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), H2 blockers, alginate suspensions, and lifestyle changes. But what if the typical approach isn’t working?
Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) diagnosis can involve the use of diagnostic tools like laryngoscopy, stroboscopy, and pH impedance probe monitoring. Learn more about the efficacy of different laryngoscopic examinations, the role of pH impedance probe monitoring in symptom correlation, and the complexities involved in interpreting probe results.
