title: [Respiratory manifestations and gastroesophageal reflux].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Presentation of 7 cases of Gastro-oesophageal Reflux (GOR) detected through the respiratory symptomatology which they manifested.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective clinical observations. Site. Primary Care.
  
  
  METHODS
  Six males (41, 58, 61, 66, 67 and 76 years old) and one woman of 63 were clinically examined on presenting a dry after-dinner cough and a night-time cough.
  
  
  RESULTS
  10% of people suffering GOR present secondary respiratory manifestations.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The importance of its early detection rests on the possibility of avoiding chronic respiratory pathologies such as inherent asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, laryngitis and recurrent pneumonia, occurring as a consequence of GOR. For this reason we consider it vital that this condition in its many forms of manifestation should be recognised in the Primary Care sphere, so that correct diagnosis and treatments can then be proceeded with.
