We're hosting and sharing a range of education resources for GPs to support them to increase their knowledge of Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and particularly focusing on the importance of Early Diagnosis. See below for what is in store.
By raising awareness and increasing understanding of the presenting symptoms, community (primary care) healthcare professionals will be encouraged to refer people with suspected Crohn's or Colitis to a GP earlier and, as a result, support earlier diagnosis.
This IBD toolkit aims to be a 'one-stop-shop', a user-friendly guide to IBD for GPs and other primary care professionals. You will need to create a free login to access the toolkit if you are not a member of RCGP.
Extra-intestinal manifestations occur in up to half of people with IBD. They are many and varied - in some cases, it may be the first sign of IBD, others may occur in people years after diagnosis even when their GI symptoms are well controlled.
