Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis are distinct clinical entities collectively referred to as “inflammatory bowel disease” (IBD). These gastrointestinal conditions have an unclear etiology, although genetic, environmental, and immunologic influences have been implicated. Crohn disease can affect any part of the digestive tract but most commonly involves the small intestine and proximal colon. Gastrointestinal symptoms are prominent, though extraintestinal pathology and systemic inflammation can also arise. Patients may initially present with nonspecific symptoms, and some may not have a clear family history. Thus, diagnostic and treatment delays are not uncommon. Understanding the condition’s pathophysiology and evidenced-based management strategies can improve patient outcomes.This activity for healthcare workers is designed to enhance learners’ competence in evaluating and managing Crohn disease. This activity is also designed to equip learners with valuable insights to collaborate effectively with an interprofessional team caring for individuals with this condition.
