FOCUS: The Future of Fecal Calprotectin Utility Study for the Diagnosis and Management of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Hypothesis: Fecal Calprotectin will be useful in guiding the diagnosis and management of patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Fecal Calprotectin can be utilized as an alternative to colonoscopy in the management of patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Objectives: By means of a survey from the ordering physician we would assess: Primary Endpoint 1\. The Percentage of time that the Fecal Calprotectin result caused the physician to change the management of a patient. Secondary Endpoints 1. To determine if the Fecal Calprotectin result influenced the number of endoscopies performed 2. To correlate how well the Fecal Calprotectin correlates with Endoscopic findings when endoscopy was performed. 3. To assess the correlation between the Fecal Calprotectin level and symptoms as measured by the Harvey Bradshaw index or the partial Mayo Score (or full Mayo Score depending if endoscopy was performed).
