Laryngopharyngeal reflux typically results from the effects of reflux on the glottis and vocal cords. Patients may present with many symptoms ranging from hoarseness, globus sensation, and chronic throat clearing to heartburn and regurgitation. In contrast to patients with gastroesophageal reflux, which is associated with the lower esophageal sphincter, patients with laryngopharyngeal reflux typically have pathologic changes in the upper esophageal sphincter. This activity describes the pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of laryngopharyngeal reflux and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the care of affected patients.
