Grand Rounds
Grand Rounds: History of Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction - DGBI (Functional GI Disorders)
This Grand Rounds features the original members of the Rome Foundation board who address the History of DGBI from the last millennia, to the present time. They also discuss the basis for the creation of the Rome Foundation.
Objectives:
● To understand the historical evolution of thinking about DGBI
● To understand the pathophysiological bases for DGBI
● Describe the historical evolution of thinking about DGBI
● Describe the pathophysiological bases for DGBI
● Trace the history of the formation of the Rome Foundation
Grand Rounds
Grand Rounds: DGBI Overlapping with Organic Disease
Objectives:
● Describe the prevalence, GI symptom patterns and clinical impact of coexisting GI illnesses, assess potential geographic and demographic differences, and address how the presence of these symptoms relates to GI symptom patterns in specific DGBI.
● Provide guidance on how the presence of co-existing GI illnesses influences burden of the disease, clinical outcomes and patient management, including how to prioritize different treatment strategies.
Grand Rounds
Grand Rounds: Initial Approach to a Patient with Severe Chronic Abdominal Pain: How to Engage, Educate and Achieve Collaborative Care
This module shows the interaction with Ms. Byers a simulated patient with multiple diagnoses including:
● Post-infection IBS
● Opioid-induced constipation
● Narcotic Bowel Syndrome
● Centrally mediated abdominal pain
● Psychosocial difficulties including
- History of abuse and trauma
- Somatic symptom disorder
- Visceral anxiety
- Depression
- Opioid seeking behavior
This module is designed to help the provider understand these disorders, engage with the patient in an effective patient-provider relationship, and use good communication skills to recommend effective treatments.
