A member asked:

Ugi series says significant reflux to the clavicular head level. correlation with direct visualization suggested. what dos that all mead, i have gerd?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It means your Gerd -: Is responsible for the reflux is causing the contents of your stomach to come backwards up into throat area, till the level of the inner ends of your collar bones (clavicles). Normally the stomach contents move forwards into the intestines. The physician who performed the ugie is suggesting that your throat be examined to see the reflux from above. A GI guy or an ENT would be able to do this.
