Join us for this upcoming event in our Gastro Bites series — virtual webinars with leading experts.
Malnutrition is common but frequently underrecognized in patients with digestive diseases. In honor of Malnutrition Awareness Week, this special AGA Gastro Bites session is presented in collaboration with the American Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN). The webinar will provide practical strategies for identifying malnutrition across a range of gastrointestinal conditions. Expert faculty will review key malnutrition risk factors and screening, assessment, and management approaches to improve recognition in clinical gastroenterology practice.
