6th Annual Orlando Clinical Updates in Inflammatory Bowel Disease 2020

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is growing on a worldwide scale and is a chronic, frequently progressive condition that affects approximately 1.6 million people in the United States. Substantial room for improvement in the care of patients with IBD is needed. The outcomes of patients with IBD are diminished by multiple factors, including uncertainty about approaches to diagnosis, assessment, and treatment, as well as, a lack of knowledge about available therapies. To meet the persistent challenges associated with IBD management, health care professionals must be knowledgeable about the evidence-based and expert-recommended strategies for the treatment of patients with IBD to avoid disease flares, prevent structural damage and disability, and restore quality of life.

Orlando clinical updates in IBD 2020 is a unique continuing medical education program. The one-day session is designed to bring gastroenterologists and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with IBD together with a nationally recognized faculty to address the most important challenges faced in 2020. The program will be comprehensive and help physicians improve the care of IBD patients.
