PG1-2021 - Select GI Disease States and Nutritional Implications (PG1-2021)


‐ Mar 20, 2021 12:00pm

Because the GI tract’s main role in the body is to process foodstuffs in an elegant, coordinated fashion, it is no surprise that alterations to the GI tract due to surgery or disease states can result in serious nutritional status decline. This GI tract preconference course will tackle five common GI processes known to be associated with nutritional compromise: 1) gastroparesis/small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, 2) cirrhosis, 3) irritable bowel syndrome, 4) chronic pancreatitis and diabetes type 3c, 5) constipation in enterally-fed disabled patient. The underlying etiology of malnutrition, as well as meaningful interventions to prevent or combat malnutrition, will also be presented.
