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.

Dysbiosis and small bowel bacterial overgrowth are complications that are seen in patients with gastrointestinal illness, especially those with surgical resections.  The diagnosis of the overgrowth can be difficult to diagnose, and typical testing like breath tests are not as reliable given the patient's altered and shortened anatomy.  This webinar aims to provide up-to-date information on the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial overgrowth, along with its effects and potential risk factors.

Management of Pain-Predominant Disorders in Gut-Brain Interaction, brings together experts from both societies to explore an integrative, global perspective on the treatment of pediatric disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI). Attendees will gain insights into both pharmacological and psychological treatment modalities, with a focus on how Eastern and Western approaches can inform and complement one another. The webinar will highlight cutting-edge interventions—ranging from cognitive behavioral therapy to novel medications—and will offer practical strategies for implementation in busy clinical settings. This is a unique opportunity for pediatric GI providers to learn from international leaders and enhance their care for children with pain-predominant DGBI.
