1ENDOSCOPIC REMISSION AND RESPONSE IN CROHNS
DISEASE AN OBJECTIVE DEFINITION USING THE CDEIS

2Endoscopic assessment of disease activity in
Crohns disease
- Endoscopy is an important tool for management of
patients with Crohns disease in daily practice - Mucosal healing has become a major endpoint in
clinical trials - Quantitative assessment of mucosal lesions must
be reproducible and validated
3Crohns Disease Endoscopic Index of Severity
(CDEIS)
- Developed to quantify endoscopic severity in
patients with ileocolonic CD - Reproducibility elementary lesions, involved and
ulcerated surfaces, overall severity (133
colonoscopies). Modigliani et al. Dis Dis Sci

4CDEIS definition of remission and response
- Which is the CDEIS level that could be used to
define endoscopic remission ? - Which is the CDEIS change that could be regarded
as indicative of a clinically significant
endoscopic response ?

14Conclusion
Our data suggest that the CDEIS could be used to
define Endoscopic remission as . no lesion
or scars (complete mucosal healing) using a
CDEIS cutoff value of 3 or 3.5 . no
lesions, scars or minor lesions using a CDEIS
cutoff value of 6 or 7 Endoscopic
response as a CDEIS change of 4 or 5
