IBD Classes vs GIRC App

The PIBD classes app was developed to assist clinicians in the diagnosis of paediatric IBD most specifically in the cases of patients with IBD when trying to distinguish between ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease and IBDU. The user should then use this and other clinical information to complete as many of the 23 questions needed to then generate a suggested diagnosis. Once you reach a diagnosis, no further questions are offered eg if class 1 features are present leading to a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease the class 2 and 3 features will not appear.

Those who care for patients suffering aspiration or ingestion events — or any foreign body injury, will have a simple and de-identified way to report cases using this app. The app gathers data from medical professionals all over the world that is analyzed to help prevent future injuries. Unfortunately, patients too frequently suffer serious injuries that can be prevented, and this critical data is necessary to drive changes across industry, government, and the medical care provided.
