Abstract

Background: Celiac disease, a chronic autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten consumption, poses significant challenges to patients' physical, emotional, and social well-being. Effective management requires a thorough understanding of the problems faced and interventions adopted by patients. This study aims to explore these dimensions and develop a comprehensive assessment tool for use in selected hospitals of Maharashtra.
