Updated Training Syllabus for trainees in the field of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition by ESPGHAN
The Council of the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatolgy and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) has released the latest, updated version of the Training Syllabus for trainees in the field of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (PGH&N). This syllabus is one of the subspecialist syllabuses for training in Tertiary Care Paediatrics as defined by the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS). A Paediatric Gastroenterologist and Hepatologist is a trained paediatrician specialising in the investigation and treatment of children with gastrointestinal, liver and nutritional disorders. It is expected that most Paediatric Gastroenterologists and Hepatologists as higher specialists in PGH&N will practice within the setting of tertiary care medicine where they are able to offer a full range of diagnostic procedures and the facilities for the treatment of intestinal, liver or nutritional failure.
This training syllabus aims to:
-
Harmonise training in PGH&N between different European countries;
-
Establish clearly defined standards of knowledge and skill for tertiary PGH&N care;
-
Foster the development of a European network of competent tertiary care centres in PGH&N;
-
Further enhance the European contribution to international scientific progress in PGH&N.
