Proposed Algorithm for the Treatment of Crohn’s
Disease Based on a Treat-to-Target Approach1
PRACTICE AID
a
Consider anti-TNF monotherapy in patients at high risk of AEs, including patients older than 65 y, with history of malignant disease, or male and younger than 35 y.
b
Suggested interval assessment for tight monitoring: clinical assessment every 3 mo for patients with active disease (every 6-12 mo for patients in remission), ileocolonoscopy (or cross-sectional
imaging in patients who cannot be adequately assessed with ileocolonoscopy) every 6-9 mo for patients with active disease, and biomarkers (CRP/fecal calprotecin) every 3-6 mo.
CRP: C-reactive protein; TNF: tumor necrosis factor.

Shared Decision-Making for IBD Treatment Decisions
What is shared decision-making?
A process in which patients,
caregivers, and their healthcare
team work together to make
decisions about the patient’s
treatment and healthcare plan
What are the benefits of shared
decision-making?
• h confidence in treatment choice
• h treatment satisfaction
• May h treatment adherence
Key Steps to Participating in Shared Decision-Making
Support
Share personal goals,
values, preferences, and
insurance coverage, and ask
for support as you review
all options
Discuss
Talk through options
with your healthcare team
and make a decision together
based on medical evidence
and personal needs Follow Through
After making your decision,
remain in contact with your
healthcare team and ask
any follow-up questions
Information
Request and gather all
information about your
treatment options, including
the pros/cons and
benefits/risks

If you are taking IBD medication(s) and still experiencing
symptoms, it is important to share the following
information with your healthcare team:

Inquire about other possible treatment options, risks and benefits
of medications, and opportunities to participate in clinical trials
Any changes in
your symptoms
before or during treatment
Have your symptoms
improved, deteriorated,
or stayed the same?
The severity of
abdominal pain
Share pain level on
a 0-10 scale
Quality of life issues
Share your ability/inability
to attend work/school, eat,
socialize, and exercise
Your symptoms
in detail
Some examples:
