ACG Offers Updated Clinical Guidance for Managing Pregnant Patients

Physician experts from the American College of Gastroenterology have released an updated educational monograph highlighting the unique clinical challenges of caring for women with chronic digestive disorders during pregnancy and managing GI complications relating to pregnancy.

“Given the large number of pregnancies each year complicated by GI disorders, gastroenterologists need to be aware of the underlying physiologic changes in GI motility during pregnancy and provide appropriate therapy for pregnant patients with special consideration being given to the safety of the mother and fetus,” according to ACG President Amy E. Foxx-Orenstein, DO, FACG.

This seven-chapter monograph entitled, “Pregnancy in Gastrointestinal Disorders,” provides up-to-date clinical recommendations on managing common gastrointestinal disorders and challenges during pregnancy:

* Constipation
* Diarrhea
* Hemorrhoids
* Heartburn
* Nausea
* Vomiting
* Hyperemesis gravidarum
* Liver diseases in pregnancy
* General guidelines for sedation and surgery
* Endoscopy in pregnancy
* Managing inflammatory bowel disease during pregnancy

The monograph explores the physiologic changes during pregnancy that may contribute to GI disorders in pregnant patients. Various studies attribute increased levels of female sex hormones, particularly progesterone, with changes in GI motility in pregnancy. Another highlighted study found elevated levels of progesterone accompanied by increased intra-abdominal pressures from the enlarging uterus, may lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure contributing to heartburn symptoms, one of the most commonly reported complaints of pregnant women.

Another important focus of the monograph addresses the challenges encountered in the treatment and management of chronic digestive disorders in pregnancy. It includes a discussion of pharmacologic and alternative therapies available to treat GI symptoms in pregnancy and, importantly, identifies which medications are safe for use in pregnant women and those which should be avoided.

“The major risk to the fetus is encountered during the first trimester of pregnancy,” says Dr. Foxx-Orenstein. “It is important for physicians and expectant mothers to maintain a high level of concern for the use of prescription and over-the-counter drugs to treat GI symptoms during pregnancy.”

The authors of the monograph also evaluated the safety of endoscopy during pregnancy. Based on a review of published scientific studies, they conclude endoscopy appears to be a safe modality for evaluating GI symptoms in pregnancy.

A full text of the research and findings highlighted in the monograph can be found on the ACG website at http://www.acg.gi.org/physicians/pdfs/PregnancyMonograph.pdf
