Track 10: Abdominal Health & Primary Care — The Foundation of Gastroenterology

Abdominal health plays a crucial role in overall well-being, with primary care physicians often being the first line of defense in detecting and managing gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. From common conditions like acid reflux and IBS to serious concerns like abdominal pain, liver disease, and colorectal cancer, early intervention in primary care settings can significantly improve patient outcomes.

At the 15th World Gastroenterology, IBD & Hepatology Conference, experts will discuss the latest advancements in abdominal health and primary care, focusing on early diagnosis, treatment innovations, and preventive strategies.

?? Understanding Abdominal Health in Primary Care

Abdominal health is a complex field that covers the stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. Patients often visit primary care providers with abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, which can be symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders, infections, or even systemic diseases.

Common Gastrointestinal Conditions in Primary Care

?? Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (FGIDs)

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) — Affects 10–15% of the global population, leading to abdominal pain, bloating, and irregular bowel movements.
• Functional Dyspepsia — Chronic indigestion without an underlying cause, often related to stress, diet, or Helicobacter pylori infection.

?? Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) & Acid Reflux

• Caused by stomach acid backing up into the esophagus, leading to heartburn, regurgitation, and chest discomfort.
• Primary care doctors play a key role in managing GERD through lifestyle changes, medications, and referrals for advanced care.

?? Chronic Liver Disease & Fatty Liver Disease

• Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is now a leading cause of chronic liver disease due to rising obesity and diabetes rates.
• Early detection through liver function tests and imaging in primary care is essential.

?? Abdominal Pain & Red Flag Symptoms

• While most abdominal pain cases are mild, persistent or severe pain, unexplained weight loss, or rectal bleeding require urgent GI evaluation.
• Primary care providers must differentiate between benign and life-threatening conditions, such as appendicitis, gallbladder disease, or colorectal cancer.

?? Innovations in Primary Care Gastroenterology

?? Non-Invasive Testing for GI Disorders

• Stool-based tests, breath tests, and imaging technologies help detect GI diseases early without invasive procedures.

?? Telemedicine & Digital Health in Gastroenterology

• Virtual GI consultations and AI-driven diagnostic tools are improving access to specialized care for abdominal health issues.

?? The Role of the Gut Microbiome in Primary Care

• Advances in microbiome research are leading to new approaches for treating IBS, IBD, and metabolic diseases through diet, probiotics, and microbiome-based therapies.
