title: [Age aspects of diagnosing and treating gastroesophageal reflux in children].
abstract: Regurgitation is one of the most frequent symptoms in newborn infants and children during the first months of their life. Regurgitation is defined as a passive reflux of a small amount of stomach contents into the gullet and oral cavity. Regurgitations can be found both as independent manifestations in practically healthy infants and as a concurrent pathology in a number of diseases.
