What does preventive care really mean for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)? In this episode, we break down the latest ACG Clinical Guideline Update: Preventive Care in IBD with two of its lead authors, Dr. Francis Farraye (Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL) and Dr. Freddy Caldera (University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health).
Together, we explore:
Why preventive care is critical in IBD management
Key vaccination recommendations for IBD patients
How to prioritize cancer and bone health screening
The role of mental health and lifestyle in long-term outcomes
Produced in collaboration with the American College of Gastroenterology’s Patient Care Committee, this episode offers clear, evidence-based insights for both patients and providers.
