Abstract
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, immune-mediated condition that is becoming more widely recognized in children. Recent EoE practice guidelines provide clear recommendations on adequate biopsy sampling at diagnostic endoscopy and necessity of close follow-up endoscopy with biopsy to ensure mucosal healing with therapy. Despite these recommendations, adherence to biopsy guidelines, time to first follow-up endoscopy, and overall surveillance endoscopy rates have not been robustly studied. Using a population-based cohort of children diagnosed with EoE in Utah, we assessed adherence to guidelines across multiple provider types, including academic pediatric gastroenterologists (PGIs), private practice PGIs, and adult-trained providers performing endoscopy in children.
