Скачать или смотреть Managing IBS, Other Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction

Disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI), formerly known as functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, affect more than 40% of the global population, one of the most common being irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Despite their prevalence, the management of DGBI in clinical practice is often suboptimal.

In this interview with HCPLive, Nicole Martinez de Andino, NP, a nurse practitioner at Augusta University Medical Center, reviews commonalities in the management of different DGBI, focusing on the use of brain-gut behavioral therapy and neuromodulators but also emphasizing the importance of focusing on treating the symptoms patients find most burdensome.

“Once you let them know that you know they have a real disorder, that you don't think it's all in their head, or that they're crazy, then you can talk to them about some of the different treatment options,” she said.
