Special Considerations in Pediatric Disorders of Gut-Brain Interactions
A Rome Foundation Continuing Medical Education program.
Pediatric Disorders of Gut-Brain Interactions (DGBIs) are complex, multi-factorial GI conditions that require thoughtful multidisciplinary treatment. As experts in the biopsychosocial model, pediatric GI Psychologists are uniquely positioned to interface with GI healthcare teams to partner with patients and families. In the following workshop, attendees will gain knowledge in a range of foundational concepts to bring home to their practice. Given the emphasis on multidisciplinary treatment in DGBIs, panels will include speakers from a range of disciplines so as to offer holistic perspectives on critical topics and recommendations for care coordination. The program will draw upon current research findings as well as the presenters’ clinical expertise.
