Changes from original (Lyon 1.0) to updated (Lyon 2.0) criteria for the modern diagnosis of GERD

Original Lyon 1.0 criteriaUpdated Lyon 2.0 criteriaRetired criteria
OverallConcepts of different testing strategies in unproven versus proven GERD
EndoscopyNo criteria for endoscopy performed on therapySeparate criteria added for testing performed on therapy
Conclusive endoscopic evidence off therapyLA C, D oesophagitisLA B, C, D oesophagitis
Borderline endoscopic evidence off therapyLA A, B oesophagitisLA A ooesophagitis
Adjunctive endoscopic evidence off therapyHistopathology (score)
Electron microscopy (DIS)
Low mucosal impedance
Hiatus hernia
Histopathology scoring systems
Electron microscopy of biopsies
Routine oesophageal biopsy analysis
Endoscopy-based mucosal impedance assessment
pH or pH impedanceNo separation between testing off and on antisecretory therapySeparate thresholds for testing off and on antisecretory therapy
wireless pH monitoringNo criteria for wireless pH monitoringWireless monitoring thresholds added
pH impedance monitoringNo thresholds for baseline impedanceThresholds added for mean nocturnal baseline impedancePostreflux swallow induced peristaltic wave index
