ABSTRACT
Esophageal diseases comprise achalasia, diffuse spasm hiatal hernia, diverticulum, perforation, foreign body, chemical burns, gastroesophageal reflux disease, benign tumor and carcinoma. Among these, the most prevalent disease is gastroesophageal reflux disease. The main approach in treatment is lifestyle modification and pharmacologic treatment. Antacids, proton pump inhibitors and H2-receptor blockers are employed in pharmacologic treatment. Lifestyle modifications are significant to reduce the symptoms and long-term effects of the disease. These changes include lifting the head of the bed, weight loss, stress reduction, breathing exercises, avoiding alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, chocolate, spicy foods, acidic foods and greasy foods. Nurses should provide lifestyle education to patients and their families. In addition, they should provide patients with interventions related to the nursing diagnoses of pain, deterioration in comfort, burden of stress, lack of information, deterioration in sleep pattern, difficulty swallowing, risk of aspiration, inadequacy in nutrition and ineffectiveness in maintaining health.
