Pediatric Feeding Disorder: A Practical Approach

Pediatric feeding disorders lack a universally accepted definition. Dr. Phalen presents a unifying diagnostic term 'Pediatric Feeding Disorder ', using the framework of the World Health Organization International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health published in 2019 in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. This program addresses how to apply the diagnostic criteria to unify practice of clinicians that treat children with feeding disorders. Presented by James A. Phalen, MD, FAAP
