Allergy

Cow’s milk allergy (CMA) currently ranks as one of the most common infant food allergies and requires timely diagnosis and appropriate management to mitigate the impact on growth and developmental outcomes and minimise patient/parent distress. During this webinar, chaired by Prof. Yvan Vandenplas, Emeritus at KidZ Health Castle, University Hospital Brussels, Belgium, with Prof. Silvia Salvatore, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at University of Insubria, Varese, Italy, both leading experts in paediatric gastroenterology, allergy, and nutrition, discussed the complexities of differentiating disorders of gut–brain interaction (DGBI), previously known as functional gastrointestinal disorders, from CMA, and considered the potential role of the Cow’s Milk Related Symptom Score (CoMiSSTM) in ensuring infants follow the correct diagnostic pathway.
