This course has been developed for gastroenterologists, dietitians, surgeons, paediatricians, nurses and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). The major aims of this e-learning activity are to provide an evidence-based but also practical approach to dietary therapy for the management of Crohn's Disease (CD). This case was developed by a multidisciplinary team and places emphasis both on the use of exclusive enteral nutrition and on the provision of the best possible nutritional and patient support based on clinical practice in experienced centres.

After this case you will:

• Know how to use exclusive enteral nutrition 
• Understand the rationale and current evidence regarding the use of exclusive enteral nutrition
• Understand how to use your multidisciplinary team to optimise outcomes

This course is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, paediatricians, pathologists and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). One major aim of this e-learning activity is to increase competence and knowledge with regard to IBD and Malignancies and to harmonise diagnostics and treatment in order to improve patient outcomes.

This course will follow the following cases on:

1. Colorectal cancer in IBD
   
2. Lymphoma risk following immunosuppressive therapy with thiopurines in IBD patients - cancer and IBD
   
3. Skin cancer in IBD
4. Chemotherapy in chronically active ulcerative colitis

Upon completion of this activity learners will have gained knowledge on:

• IBD and Solid Tumours
  
• IBD and Haematological Malignancies
  
• IBD and Skin Malignancies
• Management of IBD patients with a past history of malignancy

This course is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, paediatricians, pathologists and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). One major aim of this e-learning activity is to increase competence and knowledge with regard to the prediction, diagnosis and management of stricturing Crohn's Disease (CD) patients and to harmonise diagnostics and treatment in order to improve patient outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity learners will:

• Achieve familiarity with predictors of fibrostenosing CD.

• Understand the role of cross-sectional imaging in the diagnostic work-up of patients with suspected fibrostenosing CD.
• Understand the current management of fibrostenosing CD.
• Recognise the therapeutic capabilities of anti-inflammatory therapy, endoscopic dilatation and surgery in the setting of fibrostenosing CD.

This course has been developed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, paediatricians, pathologists and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). One major aim of this e-learning activity is to increase competence and knowledge with regard to the management of CD patients and to harmonise indications and technical considerations for surgery in order to improve patient outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity learners will:

• - Know how to identify surgical indications in patients with Crohn's Disease (CD)
  
• - Be able to adequately treat different complications in CD patients that require surgery
  
• - Be able to recommend appropriate changes in perioperative treatment and management

This course is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, paediatricians, pathologists and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). One major aim of this e-learning activity is to increase competence and knowledge with regard to the prediction, diagnosis and management of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients and to harmonise diagnostics and treatment in order to improve patient outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity learners will:

• Have insights into the basic epidemiology of ulcerative colitis
• Know current treatment options for severe ulcerative colitis, including colectomy
• Be able to use ciclosporin correctly in severe ulcerative colitis
• Understand when to order thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity when starting azathioprine

This course is designed for gastroenterologists, surgeons, paediatricians, pathologists and other interdisciplinary medical experts interested in Inflammatory Bowel Disease(s) (IBD). The intended result of this activity is increased competence, knowledge, performance and improved patient outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity learners will:

• Have insights into the position of surgery versus medical therapy in patients with moderate-to-severe as well as acute severe IV steroid refractory colitis (UC)
• Be able to select the most optimal surgical modalities
• Gain knowledge on the appropriate follow-up of patients with an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA)

This presentation will provide an overview of current surgical management of IBD with a focus on abdominal and perianal manifestations and treatment of colitis ulcerosa and Crohn's disease, capitalizing on the most recent ECCO guidelines.

Educational objectives:
1. To review when to perform surgical resection in CD, as illustrated with a patient journey with limited L1 Crohn's disease
2. To get an insight into the surgical procedure via video presentation
3. To summarize literature on risk-stratification, the importance of proactive monitoring and individual treatments for postoperative recurrence

1. to understand when and why surgery is indicated in selected patients with UC

2. to review the different surgical options in patient operated for ulcerative colitis

3. to precise the consequences  for the patient in terme of function, quality of life and follow up, after surgery for UC, according to the operation performed

4. to have an overwiew of the best way to follow a patient after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis

5/ to review the possible problems occurring during follow up up of patients after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis and the treatment for each problem

In co-operation with the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation
