Objective: To provide an evidence-based clinical practice guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), addressing the effectiveness and safety of interventions, and aimed at healthcare professionals managing gastrointestinal disorders in any clinical setting in Colombia.
Materials and Methods: This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary team with support from the Colombian Association of Gastroenterology and Universidad CES. Relevant clinical questions were formulated, and searches were conducted in databases of national and international guidelines. The retrieved guidelines were assessed for quality and applicability; five met criteria for adoption or adaptation. Additional evidence-based documents were considered during drafting. The Universidad CES research group performed a systematic literature review. The GRADE methodology and Evidence-to-Decision (EtD) frameworks were applied, based on guidelines, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses published between 2015 and 2025. Consensus was reached through a multidisciplinary panel, considering applicability, resource availability, and equity within the Colombian healthcare system. The complete methodology and technical appendices are available in the full version at www.gastrocol.com.
Results: A clinical practice guideline was developed for the diagnosis and management of patients with GERD in Colombia, addressing six core clinical questions, with 39 evidence-based recommendations and 18 good practice points. Previous evidence was updated, new recommendations on diagnosis and management were added, and a section dedicated to pregnant patients was included.
Conclusions: This update incorporates new recommendations and establishes a quality standard for the timely diagnosis and management of GERD, contributing to the reduction of disease burden and offering clear criteria for diagnostic evaluation, treatment, and follow-up.
