Introduction to LIFT-ECHO: Learn Intestinal Failure TeleECHO - introduction to clinicians
Kishore Iyer, MBBS, FRCS (Eng), FACS
Kelly Tappenden, PhD, RD

Intestinal failure (IF) is a rare, chronic, debilitating disease defined as the reduction of intestinal function below the minimum necessary for the absorption of nutrients and water. Management of IF often involves parenteral nutrition (PN). Although considered a life-saving therapy, PN may be associated with life-threatening complications of liver disease or recurrent central-line associated bloodstream infections. Intestinal rehabilitation programs offer multidisciplinary management of IF with the goal of restoring enteral autonomy and reducing the need for PN support, and, sometimes, liver and/or intestinal transplantation or referral for such transplant. Access to specialized intestinal care and expert PN management may be challenging for patients who do not live close to intestinal rehabilitation programs. Novel approaches to provide specialized care for IF are necessary. The Expanding Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO®) model may be an innovative way to expand and support such expertise.
Dr Kelly Tappenden, Head of the Department of Nutrition at Univ of Illinois in Chicago spoke on the challenges in care for patients with IF and the resulting disparities in care. Dr. Kishore Iyer, Director of the Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplant Program at Mount Sinai Hospital (New York, New York), is organizing the LIFT-ECHO (“Learn Intestinal Failure Tele-ECHO”). This intestinal failure ECHO is a collaboration among experts in nutrition, gastroenterology, surgery/transplant, patient advocacy, and insurers as well as the ECHO Institute (University of New Mexico, Albuquerque); with the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) as a continuing medical education (CME) provider.
By participating in LIFT-ECHO, clinicians may receive expert consultation and continuing education that may benefit the clinicians themselves, but it will also benefit individual patient care. The establishment of a LIFT-ECHO network, based on the ECHO® model of care to share “right knowledge at the right place and right time,” is expected to improve management of complex IF in the United States.
Join the movement! Be a part of the ECHO!!

Complications of Home Parenteral Nutrition: What to Do & How to Minimize
Darlene Kelly, MD, PhD
Ann Michalek, MD
Click here to view the recorded webinar.
Click here to view the slides.
While HPN is a life-sustaining therapy for patients with severe gastrointestinal disorders, it brings with it a host of potential complications. Because home parenteral nutrition (HPN) patients are living at home, management of acute complications is initiated by the patient and their caregiver. This webinar will discuss symptoms and signs, causes, immediate actions to be taken, prevention, and specific important points of the major complications that can occur with HPN.
