Summary

This study tests a virtual education program called LIFT-ECHO, where non-specialist doctors learn from experts how to better manage chronic intestinal failure. Researchers will enroll 150 patients and their doctors, tracking quality of life and disease activity over 12 months. The goal is to see if better-trained doctors lead to better patient outcomes.
