TIMELY TOPICS in INTESTINAL REHABILITATION and TRANSPLANT

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2020

presented by
The Allied Health Providers Committee of IRTA and the PIFR Symposium

The Allied Health Provider Committee of the Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplantation Association (IRTA) is pleased to collaborate with the Allied Health Provider group of the biannual Pediatric Intestinal Failure and Rehabilitation Symposium (PIFRS) to present a virtual education event that focuses on pediatric and adult intestinal rehabilitation and transplant.

Current strategies in medical, surgical, nutritional, and psychosocial care of patients with intestinal failure and transplant will be discussed. Presentations also include practical interventions for routine care and information on long-term outcomes. Opportunities for questions and discussion are also scheduled.
Plan to attend this free virtual event! There is something of interest for everyone on the transplant and intestinal failure multidisciplinary teams.

We are very grateful to our Sponsors for supporting this educational event for Allied Health Providers of IRTA and the PIFR Symposium.
