Desale Yacob & Ashley Kroon Van Diest - Rumination Syndrome

In this episode of Bowel Sounds, hosts Dr. Peter Lu and Dr. Jason Silverman talk to Dr. Desale Yacob and Dr. Ashley Kroon Van Diest about rumination syndrome, a functional GI disorder that is often misunderstood and misdiagnosed.  Dr. Yacob is the Director of the GI Motility Center at Nationwide Children's Hospital.  Dr. Kroon Van Diest is a pediatric psychologist who leads the rumination treatment programs at Nationwide Children's Hospital.  We talk about how to recognize and diagnose rumination syndrome, including how to explain the diagnosis to children and families.  We also discuss the treatment of rumination syndrome, including step-by-step instructions for behavioral treatment.
 
As always, the discussion, views, and recommendations in this podcast are the sole responsibility of the hosts and guests and are subject to change over time with advances in the field.
