Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to announce the formation of a new international collaborative called GRIFF or Global Research into Intestinal Failure and Fistula (GRIFF).
This initiative seeks to bring together key opinion leaders, surgeons and gastroenterologists who are clinically active in this space in an effort to better understand and improve the management of enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) and Intestinal Failure worldwide.
This brief preliminary survey is part of our groundwork for a future Delphi consensus process, exploring areas such as definition, classification, and management. We hope you will complete this straightforward (4-minute) survey to help us identify all interested parties as we move forward.
While the Delphi process itself will be conducted in subsequent phases, your participation in this initial survey will help us shape the next steps and identify key themes and contributors.
We particularly want to hear from you regarding any thoughts, concerns or suggestions you might have about how this important collaboration can be made as effective as possible.

The survey link will also be posted on our X account: @GRIFFcollab.
For any questions, feel free to reach out to us at griffcollaborative@gmail.com.
