  • 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.

    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.

Vikram Raghu - What Is Cost-Effective Care in Pediatric GI?
Q: What are the practical implications for clinicians when discussing costs with families?
Clinicians should frame costs from the family's perspective, discuss out-of-pocket costs, and balance lifetime outcomes with short-term affordability, while acknowledging insurance dynamics and the realities of who bears what costs.
Vikram Raghu - What Is Cost-Effective Care in Pediatric GI?
Q: Can you explain how you approach cost effectiveness in intestinal rehabilitation and what a typical model looks like?
We use simulation-based models because clinical trials are often not feasible in this field; the model takes available data, models outcomes and costs, and uses uncertainty to determine which strategy is most likely to provide value for patients while recognizing data limitations.
Vikram Raghu - What Is Cost-Effective Care in Pediatric GI?
Q: Vik, how would you summarize cost effectiveness for listeners who aren't familiar with the term?
Cost effectiveness is a framework for evaluating what you get for what you spend, and it's not simply about being cheaper or the best treatment; it's about assessing value, considering outcomes, and deciding if the additional cost is worth the improvement in outcomes.
Bowel Sounds Summer School - Hepatology
Q: What is your advice for how to survive first year fellowship?
Rely on peers, build support with fellow cohorts, acknowledge the steep learning curve, protect personal time, and expect early hands-on, scaffolded training with patient safety as the priority. This includes acknowledging that endoscopy is a steep learning curve and that mentors will guide hands-on practice without rushing proficiency.
Bowel Sounds Summer School - Celiac Disease
Q: How do you approach screening family members for celiac disease in at-risk populations?
Screening should be done using TTG IgA with a baseline total IgA, and it should be continued at regular intervals (typically every two years in siblings) until puberty, then less frequently, with consideration of growth concerns and symptoms.
