Primary Peristalsis Is the Dominant Mechanism of Refluxate Clearance Following Gastroesophageal Reflux
A primary peristaltic wave from a swallow, either in the form of a VCPW, PSPW, or LPPW, is the dominant mechanism of pH recovery after gastroesophageal reflux. When a primary VCPW does not correct pH drop, PSPW, and LPPW are equivalent salvage mechanisms for pH recovery.
