Description: Gregory Snigur will present a clinical case that exemplifies the complexities underlying the delivery of psychiatric medications in patients status-post extensive gastrointestinal surgery. Dr. Paul Noufi will serve as the expert discussant and provide a high yield and clinically relevant dialogue surrounding the alternative routes of delivery for certain psychiatric medications. The case presentation and facilitated discussion will be followed by a live audience question and answer session moderated by Dr. Fipps. The case conference will provide trainees an opportunity to learn about C-L psychiatry and augment C-L education at their institutions. Attendees will learn how to succinctly present a case, observe C-L psychiatrists work through diagnostic challenges, and appreciate management dilemmas that arise in C-L psychiatry, namely alternative routes of administration of psychiatric medications when the oral route is not possible.
