Abstract Background Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a 1.5–3 fold increase in the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Additionally, VTE in patients with IBD is associated with a 2.1 fold increase in mortality compared to the general population. The risk of VTE is increased with active inflammation. It is speculated that individuals with IBD are inconsistently advised about VTE risk. This study evaluated the frequency of counseling about VTE in IBD patients. Methods A retrospective medical record review of all IBD patients seen at a university gastroenterology practice during a 5 year period was performed. Patients’ age, gender, disease type and documented counselling about VTE risk were obtained. A database was created maintaining patient confidentiality. Analysis was conducted using Fisher’s Exact Test with significance set at p< 0.05. The study was approved by the university IRB. Results Records of 381 patients were reviewed. There were 209 females and 172 males with a mean age of 44 years (range 20–82). 279 had ulcerative colitis, 96 had Crohn’s disease and 6 had indeterminate colitis. Self-reported ethnicity included 195 White, 97 Black/African-American (AA), 11 Asian, 1 Hawaiian, 34 other and 43 did not report their ethnicity. 13 (3.4%) patients (7 females, 6 males) were counselled about VTE risk. The 7 women who were counselled were <50, with no significant difference in counselling of women <50 compared to women >50 (p=0.11). The 6 men who were counseled were <50, with no significant difference in counseling of men <50 compared to men >50 (p=0.09). There was no difference in the rate of counselling based upon gender (p=1.000), ethnicity (Whites vs. non-Whites, p=0.77; Whites vs. AA, p=1.00) or disease type (p=0.31). Discussion Venous thromboembolism is a known risk of inflammatory bowel disease. While VTEs infrequently occur in IBD patients, it is important that there is awareness about the potential risk. This study revealed that VTE risk is rarely discussed with IBD patients. While this study is limited by single institutional design, size and reliance on documentation, it suggests that increased efforts can be made to educate IBD patients about VTEs. Recognition of VTE risks can improve IBD management and optimize clinical outcomes.

Inflammatory Bowel

Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a debilitating intestinal condition, manifesting as Crohn’s disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) or indeterminate colitis (IC). The patient experience is impacted by a lack of awareness from other stakeholders despite growing global disease prevalence. To gain deeper insight of the patient experience, promote quality care, and enhance quality of life, we performed a qualitative study of the patient journey starting from pre-diagnosis through treatment. Methods U.S. patients with IBD were recruited via UC/CD support groups and organizations, social media platforms, blog followers, and personal networks. Participants were screened via an emailed survey and asked to self-identify as medically diagnosed on the basis of reported diagnostic testing. Interviews were conducted by qualitative researchers by phone or web conferencing. Open-ended questions were developed to support and gather information about our learning objectives—primarily, our desire to understand the unique experiences of UC/CD patients in their journey from symptom onset through diagnosis, treatment and maintenance (e.g. “Upon diagnosis, what were your immediate thoughts about the condition?”). This qualitative data were analyzed using Human-Centered Design methodology, including patient typologies (personas), forced temporal zoom (journey maps), forced semantic zoom (stakeholder system mapping), and affinity mapping for pattern recognition of unmet needs. Results A total of 32 patients were interviewed: N=17 CD patients, N=13 UC patients and N=2 IC patients. The interviewed population reflected regional, demographic, and disease-related diversity (Table 1). Five unique, mutually exclusive journeys were identified to understand and classify patient experiences: (1) Journey of Independence, (2) Journey of Acceptance, (3) Journey of Recognition, (4) Journey of Passion and (5) Journey of Determination (Figure 1). Patients with IBD expressed a need for increased awareness, education, and training for providers to shorten the path to diagnosis. Mental health support was found to be a critical gap in care, particularly for major treatment decisions (e.g., surgery). The inclusion of emotional support into the treatment paradigm was perceived as essential to long-term wellness. Patient attitudes and self-advocacy varied on their individual journeys; understanding these journeys may accelerate time to diagnosis and treatment. Conclusion Better understanding of patient journeys can help healthcare providers improve their approach to patient care and coordination.
