Join North Western Melbourne PHN and Mercy Hospital in this webinar which will explore three common gastroenterological and liver-related problems in the outpatient setting and will provide an update into the best practice in their evaluation and management.

The topics covered will include gastrointestinal reflux disease (GORD), including its complications of Barrett’s oesophagus, and considerations with regard to investigation and management including with PPI therapy.

The evaluation of common liver diseases and cirrhosis will be covered, including with non-invasive markers of fibrosis, HCC surveillance, the importance of nutrition and advances in the management of portal hypertension.

And finally, there will be a review of the management of H pylori – in particular, resistant H pylori – as well as the complication of gastric intestinal metaplasia and its screening and management.

The session teaches you how to use the IAR-DST, not how to conduct an assessment. The IAR-DST is not an assessment tool; it is a decision aid. Once you have completed a session you are able to use all adaptations of the IAR-DST.
