Detailed Summary
The IBSEN III study will investigate the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease in South Eastern Norway and describe the clinical course of the disease. The investigators will map newly diagnosed and treatment naive IBD patients at various levels (epidemiological, clinical, psychosocial and nutritional as well as immunological, genetic, epigenetic and microbial) as a basis to improve targeted and individualized treatment and care. The investigators will include incident IBD patients at all local- and university hospitals in the South Eastern Health Region in 2016-2018 and follow-up prospectively for five years. The investigators will use standardized and validated registration methods allowing comparability with previous national and international IBD cohorts, link data to national health registries and collect blood, feces and biopsies for bio banking.
