Overview

Patients with EoE benefit from the collaborative care of gastroenterologists, allergists, and dieticians, but there are many challenges to successful care coordination in the community. In this CME event, we will first provide an update on recent advances in the diagnosis and management of EoE. We will then discuss the nuances in treating and managing this disease from the perspective of a pediatric gastroenterologist, adult gastroenterologist, allergist, and dietician. This will include informative presentations, question and answer sessions after each talk, and a roundtable discussion at the end of the conference where we will discuss difficult cases.

Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

• Understand the advances in the diagnosis and management of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) in pediatric and adult patients
• Recognize the roles of the gastroenterologist, allergist and dietician in the management of EoE patients
• Facilitate a collaborative network of EoE providers in the state of Virginia to improve the care of patients
