Release Date: October 2026
Viewing Time: 11 hours
Description

Take on the most urgent and complex challenges in inpatient GI care with a high-impact program designed for real-world practice. Through dynamic case-based sessions and hands-on training, you’ll gain practical, guideline-driven strategies to confidently approach GI bleeding, hepatobiliary emergencies, perforations, malignant obstruction, acute severe IBD and more. Learn from expert faculty across advanced endoscopy, hepatology and inpatient GI and GI hospitalists as they walk through real-world decision-making, risk stratification and when to escalate care.

Put your skills into action during two extended simulation-based labs designed to strengthen hemostasis techniques, manage refractory bleeding and navigate critical interventions like emergency ERCP and PEG troubleshooting. With a focus on team-based care, workflow optimization and delivering high-quality outcomes in fast-paced hospital settings, this course equips you to respond with precision when it matters most.

This course contains recordings from the live course that took place in September, 2026.
