📷Older adults=1/3rd of all IBD pts
📷Safest therapy = one that puts IBD in remission & prevents frailty
📷Do not delay surgery if needed, delays = complications
Post convo polls 📷 (Answers in #IBDAlgo)

Also since this came out in a timely fashion :) - if anyone is an #ACG member and is interested, we would love to hear how you make treatment choices in #IBD (<5 min survey).
Paraphrasing & I’m just a surgeon (so what do I know), but I remember @MRegueiroMD mentioning @AIBD - if you start a med & pt needs✂️ within 6 month…probably should have had ✂️ in 1st place
