Rome V Pediatric Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (Second Edition)

The Rome V pediatric classification represents a fundamental shift from a developmental (age-based) model to an anatomical framework aligned with adult classification. This approach preserves the importance of developmental context while enabling greater continuity of care across the lifespan, reflecting shared underlying patterns of Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (DGBI) from childhood into adulthood.

Topics covered include:

• How to diagnose and treat DGBI across anatomical regions, including the Upper GI, Lower GI, and Biliary disorders

  caregivers, and children
