Rome Multidimensional Clinical Profile for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders: MDCP (Third Edition)

Rome Multidimensional Clinical Profile for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders: MDCP (Third Edition) is organized by Rome Foundation.

Description:
This 3rd edition of the Rome Foundation MDCP allows us to fully address the dimensionality of clinical decision-making. Each diagnosis contains complete case presentations from mild to severe, and incorporates the five MDCP
components.

It covers a broad spectrum of clinical presentations seen by gastroenterologists and primary care clinicians. The chapters follow the Rome IV classification system for adults and children on the esophageal, gastroduodenal, biliary, bowel, anorectal and CNS disorders.

It covers a broad spectrum of clinical presentations seen by gastroenterologists and primary care clinicians. The chapters follow the Rome IV classification system for adults and children on the esophageal, gastroduodenal, biliary, bowel, anorectal and CNS disorders. Each diagnosis contains complete case presentations from mild to severe, and it incorporates the five MDCP components.

These include:

•  Category A: The Rome IV diagnosis
• Category B: A sub-classification of the diagnosis leading to more specific treatments
• Category C: The personal impact of the disorder on the patient
• Category D: Psychosocial influences
•  Category E: Physiological abnormalities or biomarkers

This framework is intuitively clear, and the organizational approach is both pragmatic and useful.

With this new edition, we present 19 new case-based learning modules for a total of 86 cases covering the full spectrum of DGBI for adults and children.

The authors, members of the Rome Foundation Board of Directors, are an international group of key opinion leaders who are highly skilled in developing these new cases, updating all previous ones, and incorporating only the best and most recent treatments.
