NAPLES, Florida — In this Healio video, Maria T. Abreu, MD, professor of medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, shares highlights from her presentation on IBD guidelines at the 2022 ACG/FGS Annual Spring Symposium.

In addition to discussing treatment options and management of IBD patients, Abreu detailed challenges physicians often face when following recommendations from medical associations. “I think that guidelines are a way to have a ready algorithm for doctors and physician extenders who are taking care of a lot of different GI diseases,” Abreu said, adding that when health care providers only treat IBD, “the guidelines are the floor; they’re not the ceiling.”
