Beyond Symptoms: What Does Holistic Monitoring Mean for People Living with IBD?
10 November 2026 | 17:00–18:00 CET | Live online webinar
What does it mean for IBD to be under control? Feeling well may not tell the whole story—and reassuring test results may not fully reflect how someone feels.
Join IFCCA for a conversation about how clinical findings, lived experience and patient priorities can inform a fuller picture of IBD control. Bringing together clinical and patient perspectives, this webinar will explore what holistic monitoring can mean in everyday care and how it can support conversations between patients and healthcare professionals.
We will discuss why symptoms and clinical results sometimes tell different stories, what matters to patients beyond test results, and the gaps in monitoring and access across healthcare settings. The session will include personal experiences, a panel discussion and audience Q&A.
