Diagnosing and treating children with neurodevelopmental disorders – including autism, cerebral palsy, and other genetic conditions – presents a unique set of challenges for gastrointestinal disorders. These children often experience a higher prevalence of GI issues which can exacerbate their behavioral and sensory sensitivities. The overlap between GI symptoms and behavioral issues can make it difficult to identify the root cause of distress, complicating diagnosis and treatment.

Communication barriers due to diagnoses, caregiver and patient-imposed dietary restrictions, pediatric feeding disorders and variable growth charts can further complicate nutritional management. Providers need a lower threshold for considering diagnostics and treatment, and the patient may benefit from a collaboration between their provider and behavioral therapists, psychiatrists, neurologists and developmental pediatricians.

This webinar aims to provide high-yield evidence and experience-based practical clinical tools, and will touch on innovation, research, technology and advocacy in this area.

The underlying premise of a publication-worthy manuscript (and the research supporting it) is that it provides insight to the readers regarding a clinically or biologically relevant question. This webinar aims to offer suggestions to fellow and junior faculty as to how to write the best manuscript possible. Our distinguished speakers will review the details surrounding manuscripts, including methods, ethical considerations, biostatistics, results, discussions, figures, tables and conclusions. Guidance will be given as to how to respond to reviewers. Specific requirements for JPGN and JPGN Reports will also be discussed. Join moderators Dr. Kathleen Schwarz and Dr. Nitika Gupta, and a speaker panel featuring Susan Baker, MD, PhD, Sandeep Gupta, MD, Sanjiv Harpavat, MD, PhD, Veronique Morinville, MDCM, FRCPC and Edwin de Zoeten, MD, PhD.

Pediatric Intestinal Failure patients are unique and complex, and they have management practices and indications that are specific to them. This webinar will discuss intestinal failure with a focus on strategies to enhance intestinal adaption, facilitate enteral autonomy, minimize nutritional deficiencies, promote growth and development, and maximize the quality of life. A multidisciplinary approach is critical at all ages and stages, and our distinguished panel will present on the current state of intestinal failure management and advancements in the field of intestinal transplantation.

Children and adolescents hospitalized with active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE), which can have significant impacts on patient outcomes. This evidence-based course was created to educate healthcare providers about this risk and serve as a toolkit to guide development and implementation of standardized procedures for VTE risk screening and prophylaxis at their centers.

Blending the art of food and cooking with the science of medicine, this new NASPGHAN webinar series brings you live interactive educational webinars that highlight the importance of food and diet within a patient’s health plan, and how to use culinary medicine tailored to specific GI diseases and symptoms.

The latest installment of our Culinary Medicine series brings you Crohn’s Disease and the Crohn’s Disease Exclusion Diet (CDED). The first segment of the live webinar will offer a medical presentation by a physician who will discuss nutrition therapies for inflammatory bowel disease, focusing mainly on Crohn’s, followed by an dietitian who will discuss the dietary approach and implications. Finally, a home medical chef will demonstrate two recipes that follow an ant-inflammatory diet.
