Registry and Biorepository for IBD in Central Texas
This is a prospective, non-interventional registry and biorepository for patients with IBD. Longitudinal follow-up data is collected from both patients and their treating gastroenterologist during routine clinical encounters. The biorepository will consist of prospective collection of blood samples, tissue samples, and fecal samples for research purposes, while the participants are undergoing a clinically-indicated procedure (i.e. venipuncture for routine tests, IV catheter placement, and/or endoscopy). Participants may choose to provide any or all of the aforementioned information and/or samples. View More View Less
