Views of patients with inflammatory bowel disease on the COVID-19 pandemic: a global survey
Patients with chronic diseases have experienced substantial changes to the routine management of their conditions during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.1,2 Although insights into the management of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) during the outbreak have been described,3 little attention has been paid to the patients’ point of view. Therefore, we did an anonymous web survey with the support of the European Federation of Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis Associations (EFCCA) between March 30 and April 16, 2020, to investigate the concerns, fears, and behaviours of patients with IBD during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.
