The clinical sites of the PediCODE consortium welcome the opportunity to evaluate patients with possible congenital diarrheas and provide advice to referring physicians. Patients may be referred for a variety of reasons including:
The clinicians in the PediCODE consortium are experienced in the co-management of patients with CODE disorders at referring medical centers. We welcome the opportunity to help with the initial evaluation and then periodically re-evaluate the patient but leave the day-to-day management to the referring physician. Often these re-evaluations can coincide with research visits or obtaining research samples.
