Abstract Background Strictures are a common complication for patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Endoscopic stricturotomy (ESt) is a novel procedure for treatment of these strictures. Methods A chart review was performed for patients with strictures who underwent ESt. Results Eleven patients were included in the study and the total number of strictures treated was 12. The mean length of the strictures was 10.25 ± 4.36 mm. Technical success was achieved in 92% (n = 11) of the procedures. Postprocedural bleeding occurred in 9% (n = 1) of patients, and none of the patients had complications of infection or perforation. Conclusions ESt is a safe technique with high technical success rate.

Abstract Background Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) includes ankylosing spondylitis and inflammatory spinal disease. We validated an algorithm to identify patients with axSpA and examine the prevalence of axSpA in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Methods Diagnostic code algorithms to identify patients with axSpA were compared using a sample of randomly selected patients for chart review and used to estimate prevalence in a national cohort of IBD patients. Results Using the best performing algorithm for axSpA among IBD patients [>3 codes and >90 days between encounters (positive predictive value = 0.813, negative predictive value = 0.742)], 1545 cases of axSpA were identified among 77,824 IBD patients, a prevalence of 1.99%. Fifty-five percent of patients were diagnosed with IBD before axSpA, 24% were diagnosed concurrently, and 21% of patients were diagnosed with axSpA before IBD.

The Impact

Abstract Background We aim to assess the impact of a multidisciplinary inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) conference on the management of patients with complex IBD. Methods Data were collected during each conference from February 2017 through October 2018 with chart review performed at 6 months to determine if conference recommendations were successfully implemented. Results Eighty-five patients were discussed. The presenting diagnosis was changed by 11.8%. Recommendations for further testing, medical therapy, and surgery were successfully implemented in 77.1%, 98.1%, and 88.4%, respectively. Conclusions This study supports the role of IBD multidisciplinary conferences in the management of patients with complex IBD.

BACKGROUND: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often do not take their medications as prescribed.OBJECTIVE: To examine self-reported adherence rates in IBD patients at the Stollery Children’s Hospital (Edmonton, Alberta) and to determine predictors of medication adherence.METHODS: A survey was mailed to 212 pediatric IBD patients of the Stollery Children’s Hospital. A chart review was completed for those who returned the survey.RESULTS: A total of 119 patients completed the survey. The nonresponders were significantly older than responders (14.5 years versus 13.2 years; P=0.032). The overall adherence rate was 80%. Nonadherence was associated with older age (14.6 years versus 13.0 years; P=0.04), longer disease duration (5.0 years versus 3.1 years; P=0.004) and reported use of herbal medications (40.0% versus 13.6%; P=0.029). The most common reasons reported for missing medications were forgetfulness, feeling better and too many medications. In addition, patients reported being more likely to take anti-inflammatory medications and less likely to take herbal medicines.CONCLUSION: Identified predictors of nonadherence such as age, disease duration and use of herbal treatments may enable the development of specific strategies to improve adherence in adolescents with IBD.
