Therapeutic Endpoint in Pediatric IBD Conditions

Description

The purpose of this clinical study is the development of physiologic endpoint of inflammation in pediatric patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), specifically subtypes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The novel medical device evaluates the patient's sensory response to each of the three sensory nerve fiber types. Data from the device provides an assessment of disease activity and a more precise approach to treatment.
