Frequency and impact of repeat colonoscopy as a treat‐to‐target approach in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease
Adherence to the treat-to-target strategy recommending RC within 15 months of diagnosis was high, exceeding previously reported pediatric rates. Only 3% of patients/families declined RC despite this being a perceived barrier toward assessment of EH. Therapy adjustments post-RC were frequent, underscoring the importance of mucosal assessment in guiding treatment optimization.
