[Treatment of gastro-esophageal reflux in children and premature infants].
Gastroesophageal reflux is a common problem in the paediatric population, which affects especially infants, neonates and preterm infants. Usually the course is benign, but it can also be a cause of severe complications and acute life threatening events. In this paper diagnostic methods are presented and a systematic literature review of treatment options is given. Current recommendations are proposed according to the results of this review.
