Health Care Maintenance for the Pediatric Patient With Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Pediatrics 2016 September
Nearly one-quarter of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are younger than 20 years of age at diagnosis. Furthermore, the incidence of IBD in children continues to increase. Nevertheless, variation in management exists within the care of patients with IBD with regards to disease screening and preventive care. A multidisciplinary approach that involves the general practitioner and pediatric gastroenterologist is needed to routinely monitor growth, bone health, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, vaccination status, and endoscopic surveillance.

The purpose of this article is to provide an updated overview of comprehensive care for pediatric patients with IBD.
