The last two years have seen rapid advancement in therapy options for EoE, moving beyond dietary elimination, off-label use of proton pump inhibitors and swallowed topical steroids. In May of 2022, dupilumab became the first FDA approved medication for EoE in patients 12 years and older, and January 2024 brought approval for ages 1-11. Next came the first and only oral medication approved for EoE - budesonide oral suspension EOHILIA. These changes have resulted in questions around best approaches and practices in treating EoE patients. Our webinar will deliver a particular focus on new medication options for pediatric patients with EoE as well as challenges faced by clinicians and patients.

Pediatric dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, affects children ages 3 to 17 in the United States.  While there are four phases of the physiologic swallow, clinicians frequently evaluate and manage symptoms associated with the oropharyngeal and esophageal phases.  

There are numerous possible diagnoses that may contribute to dysphagia and its sequelae, and therefore effectively navigating the investigative process can be challenging.

The development of new diagnostic techniques have shown to be beneficial in recognizing underlying pathophysiology, in addition to identifying new diagnoses.

Current Concepts in Pediatric Dysphagia: Oropharyngeal, Esophageal and the Extremes aims to provide a detailed discussion on the novel diagnostic techniques and therapeutic management of these disorders, including supragastric belching and retrograde cricopharyngeal dysfunction.
