Controversies in the Treatment of GERD
Panel Chair: Leena Khaitan, MD
Description:
During this session, attendees will meet the nation's experts in the treatment of controversial clinical dilemmas related to GERD. Each panelist will be presented with a case scenario and then will be asked to discuss possible treatment options. They are asked to provide the best evidence in support of their assigned treatment option. After each panelist has presented his/her case (approximately 10-12 minutes), then there will be a panel discussion with audience participation (approximately 12-15 min).
Objectives:
- Attendees will become aware of the full spectrum of treatment options for problems related to GERD
- Use an evidence-based approach to choosing the proper treatment for the patient with GERD
