    I’d be awesome if you guys had Dr. Victoria Martin on again to discuss an updated episode on CMPI and the research she’s been doing, any changes to protocols etc.

  • Amazing discussions, very relatable

    I recently have moved and my commute has become longer. The silverning is time to listen to bowel sounds. It's a fantastic resource on all peds GI. Peter, Temara, Jennifer and Jayson are very relatable and navigate the questions like pros. I highly recommend (as I have been) to all peds GI colleagues and pediatricians wanting to learn a bit more about the sorcery that is peds GI.

  • Always entertaining and informative

    Our hospital has a perpetual peds GI shortage and these lectures help to streamline what to refer and what can be managed by the hospitalist

  • Helpful for primary care too!

    Episodes are helpful in my clinical practice as a primary care doc. Especially loved the one about cow milk protein allergy/intolerance/proctocolitis/all the names it has 😂 and the one about social determinants of health and IBD with Dr. Ali from my residency program! Yay Sabina!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Valeria Cohran - Transforming Care for Children with Intestinal Failure
Q: What would you do for a neonate with short bowel syndrome on TPN who develops rising conjugated bilirubin and cholestasis around three months of age?
Transition the patient from composite lipid products to an IV fish oil–based lipid like MEGAVEN; consider accelerating enteral feeding, evaluating for enteral absorptive improvements, and assessing whether adding or adjusting formulas or additives could support adaptation while continuing close monitoring within an intestinal rehabilitation program.
Maureen Leonard - Can We Prevent Celiac Disease?
Q: Where did you grow up and what do you like to do when you go back there?
I grew up in Boston and enjoy walking around the city, visiting museums, and being close to the water.
Maureen Leonard - Can We Prevent Celiac Disease?
Q: Describe yourself in one sentence to our listeners.
I'm a physician-scientist focused on Celiac disease, as well as a wife and mom, and someone living with Celiac disease.
Pete Duncan - Oropharyngeal Dysphagia and Aspiration
Q: What are the main tests used to evaluate swallowing safety in infants and children?
The main tests are videofluoroscopic swallow study (MBSS) and flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). MBSS uses fluoroscopy with contrast to visualize swallow dynamics and allow adjustments, while FEES uses a flexible scope to visualize feeding at the airway entrance and maneuvers.
Pete Duncan - Oropharyngeal Dysphagia and Aspiration
Q: What distinguishes laryngeal penetration from true aspiration, and why is this clinically important?
Penetration occurs when the material enters the laryngeal vestibule but stays above the vocal cords; aspiration occurs when material passes below the vocal cords into the airway. This distinction guides the choice of tests and management because aspiration directly threatens the airway and carries higher risk of lung injury.
