Abstract
Background

Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is a disease caused by the backflow of stomach contents into the laryngopharynx. In 2018, 20-30% of patients with laryngeal complaints were diagnosed with LPR in Indonesia. Aims: To determine the prevalence of LPR cases at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung. Methods: This is a descriptive study using a retrospective method to identify the characteristics of LPR patients at the ORL-HNS clinic at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital in Bandung from 2017 to 2021. Results: A total of 368 cases were treated at the ORL-HNS clinic. Among them, 205 were female patients (55.71%) and 163 were male patients (44.29%) with the highest age group being 46-55 years. The largest group of patients had a normal BMI (18.5 - 22.9). The chief complaint most frequently reported by patients was throat clearing, with 92 patients (25.00%), followed by hoarseness in 80 patients (21.74%) and difficulty swallowing in 64 patients (17.39%). Conclusion: Female patients dominated the study population, with the highest age group being 46-55 years. The largest group of patients had a normal BMI. The chief complaints reported by patients were throat clearing, followed by hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, and a lump in the throat.
