    Episode #66: This Colonoscopy Prep Includes Chocolate Chip Cookies |Lisa Mathew & Jeff Scott | Happy Colon Foods
    Oct 23 2024
    Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Dr. Jeff Scott, a gastroenterologist and founder of Happy Colon Foods, a company that prepares meal kits that are compliant with the diet requirements before a colorectal screening. Happy Colon Foods is designed to mimic a typical day, with three meals and snacks in between, including mac n' cheese and cookies. Because smaller doses of laxatives are spread throughout the day, many patients can work either part or most of their prep day. A large, randomized trial published in 2013 compared the results of clear-liquid only and low-residue diets, and found that a low-residue diet, is just as effective than a diet restricted to clear liquids. Join Dr. Mathew and Dr. Scott as they explore how this type of colonoscopy prep can remove some of the difficulty of preparing for a colonoscopy and encourage people to get screened.

  • Episode #65: Identifying High-Risk Barrett’s Esophagus Patients | Lisa Mathew & Raman Muthusamy | UCLA School of Medicine

    Episode #65: Identifying High-Risk Barrett’s Esophagus Patients | Lisa Mathew & Raman Muthusamy | UCLA School of Medicine
    Oct 9 2024
    Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Dr. Raman Muthusamy, professor of clinical medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and medical director of endoscopy for UCLA Health, about a new clinical guideline for endoscopic eradication therapy to prevent the progression of Barrett’s esophagus to esophageal cancer. Esophageal cancer is preventable if high-risk patients, such as those with Barrett’s Esophagus, are treated with endoscopic eradication therapy to eliminate the Barrett’s tissue. Endoscopic eradication therapy is highly effective, but the challenge is identifying the high-risk patients to treat and the low-risk patients for whom long-interval surveillance may be appropriate. Join Dr. Mathew and Dr. Muthusamy as they explore new technologies for identifying patients who are most at risk and the potential innovations that could stop a majority of Barrett's Esophagus patients from progressing to esophageal cancer.
