Gastroenterology and Hepatology
Gastroenterology and Hepatology covers the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal, hepatic and nutritional disorders in children, including chronic diarrhoeal disease, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, cholestasis and liver failure. This session brings together pediatric gastroenterologists, hepatologists, dietitians, endoscopists and nurses to discuss modern diagnostic approaches—capsule endoscopy, non-invasive liver fibrosis assessments and fecal biomarkers—and evidence-based therapeutic strategies such as biologics for IBD, nutritional rehabilitation for malabsorption and evolving indications for pediatric liver transplantation. Practical workshops in Pediatric Gastroenterology Conferences will emphasise endoscopic safety, sedation protocols, and outpatient management algorithms to reduce avoidable admissions.

Clinical Impact & Practical Takeaways
Improved Disease Control
Treat-to-target approaches and therapeutic monitoring reduce flares and hospitalisations.
Better Nutritional Outcomes
Integrated dietetic-led plans restore growth and support recovery in malabsorption syndromes.
Reduced Procedural Risk
Standardised sedation and safety protocols lower adverse events in pediatric endoscopy.
Timely Transplant Pathways
Clear criteria and pre-transplant optimization improve post-transplant survival and growth.
