3 Goals of Management in IBD IBD Diagnostic Considerations Confirm accurate diagnosis Induce remission Defined as absence of inflammatory symptoms, feeling well Maintain remission 95% of patients require maintenance therapies Transition to maintenance occurs after successful induction Need effective and safe long-term therapies Avoid surgery when possible, embrace it when necessary Enhance quality of life Avoid complications of The disease Therapy Left-sided Crohn s s colitis Ischemia Partially treated colitis: patchy disease Disease Progression Rectal sparing in UC Look for clues! Appendectomy protects against UC Smokers have CD Family history usually concordant Andersson RE, et al. N Engl J Med. 1;3: 1. Early Appendectomy Protects Against UC Is it Clostridium difficile?
