Support We expect support for this program through grants from pharmaceutical and medical device companies. Accreditation This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through joint sponsorship of Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University and the New York Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. of Yeshiva University is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians. of Yeshiva University designates this live activity for a maximum of AMA PRA Category 1 Credits. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. Conflict of Interest The Conflict of Interest Disclosure Policy of Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University requires that faculty participating in any CME activity disclose to the audience any relationship(s) with a pharmaceutical or equipment company. Any presenter whose disclosed relationships prove to create a conflict of interest with regard to their contribution to the activity will not be permitted to present. of Yeshiva University also requires that faculty participating in any CME activity disclose to the audience when discussing any unlabeled or investigational use of any commercial product or device, not yet approved in the United States. Under the direction of expert faculty, this course is designed to improve endoscopic practice through live case presentations, video and handson demonstrations, didactic lectures including audience interaction and questions, and hands-on training using animal tissue models. The goals are to help participants improve their knowledge of gastrointestinal diseases and disorders, enhance the quality of their practice, apply state-of-the-art technology in a cost-effective way, understand trends in interventional endoscopic and surgical procedures, and to foster an evidence-based approach to endoscopic decision-making for commonly encountered and controversial problems in gastroenterology. Gastrointestinal endoscopy is experiencing a rapid expansion of knowledge and technological innovation. Advances in therapeutic endoscopy continue to challenge or entirely replace certain purely diagnostic endoscopy techniques. This course will enable participants to learn and apply new information and evolving technological innovations to the enhancement of patient care and outcomes. Assess the clinical utility of current advances in endoscopic technique and apply these to the improvement of patient care across a range of clinical gastroenterology topics Recognize the implications of health care reform for the practice of gastroenterology and understand health information technology as it impacts the endoscopist community Examine and discuss controversial endoscopic therapies in comparison with traditional medical and interventional treatments Recognize trends toward interventional endoscopic procedures such as ablation for early mucosal dysplasias including Barrett s esophagus and endoscopic management of complications and obesity Evaluate important issues in daily clinical practice including sedation, surveillance intervals for colon cancer screening, and quality in endoscopy The staff of NYSGE and the CCME of of Yeshiva University have no conflicts of interest with commercial interests related directly or indirectly to this educational activity.

11 Option 3 Advances in Medical and Surgical Approaches to Inflammatory Bowel Disease Wednesday, December 18 6:00 pm 8:30 pm Course Director Brian P. Bosworth, MD Guest Faculty Fabrizio Michelassi, MD; Ellen J. Scherl, MD Intended Audience Gastroenterologists, GI fellows, primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and other health care professionals involved in the care and treatment of IBD. This course is designed to provide an improved understanding of how current IBD therapies, from mesalamines to immunomodulators to anti-tnf therapy, may be optimized. New pathways of medical therapy and advances in bowel-sparing therapy will also be presented. Few physicians are aware of new developments in the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, a chronic relapsing remitting disease of the intestine. Course participants will learn how to monitor and optimize current and emerging therapies and appreciate how advances in surgical techniques can allow for improved bowel-sparing operations. Recognize the differences between mild, moderate and severe IBD Optimize use of mesalamines, biologics and immunomodulators to induce and maintain remission of IBD Understand the role of new agents for targeted therapy in treating inflammatory bowel disease Determine appropriate surgical candidates and understand the role of bowel-sparing nonmedical options Option 4 Advancements in Hepatitis Therapies Thursday, December 19 6:15 pm 9:00 pm Ira M. Jacobson, MD; Sonal Kumar, MD, MPH Guest Faculty Robert S. Brown, Jr., MD; Douglas T. Dieterich, MD; Paul J. Gaglio, MD Intended Audience Gastroenterologists, hepatologists, infectious disease specialists, and interested primary care physicians who treat viral hepatitis in their practices. This course is designed to provide physicians and other healthcare providers with up to date information on new therapies for hepatitis C and hepatitis B. The field of viral hepatitis therapy has been transformed with the use of direct-acting antiviral agents. Recent long term data provide new perspectives on what can be accomplished with nucleotide or nucleoside polymerase inhibitors for hepatitis B, including fibrosis or cirrhosis regression. New screening guidelines for hepatitis C have the potential to identify a large number of patients with HCV infection, but strategies are needed to optimize the application of these guidelines and ensure linkage to proper care. Treatment with protease inhibitors is no longer novel and new data continue to emerge, including the results of treatment in challenging populations. In the face of dramatic results being obtained with interferon-free regimens, clinicians must regularly assess the issue of whether to treat with currently available agents or await the advent of new treatment paradigms. The pace at which new information is emerging makes a symposium covering the latest developments highly opportune. Discuss recent observations on the long term outcome of HBV therapy with oral antiviral drugs Assess the impact of the recent CDC guidelines for HCV screening and present strategies for provision of care to newly identified patients Recognize the results of treatment of HCV infection with boceprevir and telaprevir, and interpret the recent data on new drugs that are expected to transform the landscape of therapy Choose practical approach to the treatment of HCV infection in patients with advanced cirrhosis and liver transplants Agenda 6:15-6:25 pm Registration and Light Refreshments 6:25-6:30 Introduction and Welcome Ira M.

Stavropoulos, MD Guest Faculty Gregory B. Haber, MD; Jüergen Hochberger, MD Sergey Kantsevoy, MD, PhD; Michael B. Wallace, MD, MPH; Naohisa Yahagi, MD, PhD Intended Audience Advanced GI endoscopists, surgical endoscopists, and others in the GI field who are interested in increasing their knowledge of techniques, equipment and devices used in cutting edge resection techniques such ESD and POEM. In this course, ESD and POEM will be demonstrated by experts in a live and interactive forum allowing free-flowing interaction between participants and faculty during the live demonstrations. Structured training sessions to expose participants to devices currently used for POEM, ESD and endoscopic closure will follow the live demonstrations. ESD was developed in Asia over a decade ago to allow endoscopic removal of early neoplasms and spare patients the standard approach of transabdominal surgery and organ resection. Due to the technical difficulty of ESD and extensive training required, adoption in the US has been slow. However, interest in this technique has increased with the advent of POEM, the first successful NOTES procedure now in an exponential growth phase. ESD is the parent technique for POEM and therefore an essential skill for POEM operators. There are very limited opportunities for US physicians to observe expert demonstrations of these techniques and engage in mentored hands-on exposure to the latest devices and techniques in tissue models. This course will provide such an opportunity. 12
