Popis: A careful history and physical examination remain the basis of sound medical practice. The symptoms and signs leading to a differential diagnosis that includes gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) vary with age. History needs to be specific to reveal known symptom associations. Physical examination should include feeding or behavioral observation when complaints indicate problems in those areas.
