Description:
This session will explore the pathophysiology of inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) focusing on the main clinical presentations and treatments for select disorders. Case studies will be used to highlight risks for decompensation and necessary interventions. The audience will appreciate the essential role of nutrition therapy in the management of IEMs in addition to barriers to treatment approaches. This session will also familiarize the audience with the scope of the metabolic dietitian in the interdisciplinary metabolic team, as well as resources for the emergency and nutrition management of inborn errors of metabolism.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
- Describe the pathophysiology, main clinical presentation and treatment of IEMs.
