DESCRIPTION
Nutrition is a critical area of healthcare, particularly in the management of patients requiring specialized nutritional interventions. 
There is a dire need for education that addresses the complexities of enteral and parenteral nutrition and the role of diet in disease management. 
Our conference fills this gap by providing in depth education on Nutrition Support, tailored specifically for healthcare professionals involved in the care of adult patients. 
Evolving research, disease complexity, and technological advancements in nutrition underscores this need.
The John F. Gilmore Symposium on Nutrition and Small Bowel Disorders will advance knowledge of healthcare professionals in the field of specialized nutrition support and increase awareness of the role of diet in disease management. 
We aim to equip attendees with the skills necessary to manage nutritional needs of patients with basic and complex gastrointestinal disorders through a blend of expert-led sessions and case studies.
 
The goal is to improve patient care and outcomes.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is designed for gastroenterologists, gastroenterology trainees, internists, advanced practice nurses, physician assistants, registered dietitians, nurses, and pharmacists dedicated to caring for patients with nutrition-related disorders.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After this activity, participants will be able to:
Recognize basic initial recommendations for patients to manage malnutrition;
State the basic mechanism of carbohydrate absorption and the impact of malabsorption and medications on gastrointestinal symptoms;
Outline the appropriate management of nutrition in patients presenting with acute and chronic pancreatitis;
Choose the appropriate enteral feeding tube based on a patient’s unique clinical condition;
Suggest the appropriate use of parenteral nutrition (PN) with an understanding of the basics of line choice and home monitoring;
Discuss the role of medical and nutrition-related therapies in eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders;
Explain techniques for managing physiologic intolerances to enteral nutrition support and mechanical complications of enteral access devices (e.g., leaking, clogged, and connection incompatibilities).
