An estimated 4-36% of children have functional constipation in their childhood. Pediatric constipation accounts for 3% of all pediatrician referrals and 25% of pediatric gastroenterology referrals. Yet many providers are unaware of the strategies necessary to prevent, treat and reduce recurrence of chronic constipation in children. Many providers lack understanding of the numerous evidence-based natural treatments available to their patients. This 1-hour prerecorded class will give you confidence to treat complicated pediatric constipation cases.
