Examine the differences between traditional tower-based endoscopy (TBE) and smartphone-based endoscopy (SBE) using objective measures of cost, setup time, and image quality....
Cost analysis study and randomized single-blinded prospective trial was performed at a tertiary academic health center. Twenty-three healthcare providers, 2 PA-C, 9 residents, 2 fellows, 10 attendings...
Cost savings was 95.8% ($39,917 USD) per system. Setup time for the smartphone system was 46.7 seconds less than video tower system on average (61.5 vs 23.5 seconds;...
Smartphone-based endoscopy was found to be cheaper, quicker to set up, and to have marginally better image quality when transmitted via messaging than tower-based endoscopy, although the clinical sign...
The thoracic surgeon, well versed in advanced endoscopy, has an array of therapeutic options for foregut pathologic conditions. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) offers a less-invasive means to treat ...
Since its inception, endoscopy has evolved from a solely diagnostic procedure to an expanding therapeutic field within gastroenterology. The incorporation of robotics in gastroenterology initially add...
Nonoperating room anesthesia for digestive tract endoscopy has its own specificities and requires practical training. Monitoring devices, anesthetic drugs, understanding of procedures and management o...
New data are available regarding risk factors for intra- and postoperative complications (based on anesthesia registries), airway management, new anesthetic drugs, techniques of administration and man...
Digestive tract endoscopy is a common procedure that takes place outside the operating room most of the time and has become more and more complex due to advanced invasive procedures. Prior evaluation ...
Endoscopic procedures for foreign body ingestion (FBI) and esophageal food impactions (EFI) performed during on-call hours are associated with increased stress, risk, and cost. We implemented a Foreig...
Using endoscopy records from multiple academic and community hospitals within a large integrated health system in the United states, we identified esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) performed for food i...
We identified 479 EGDs performed for FBI and EFI. The introduction of the FBA was associated with a shorter length of stay (LOS) for overall cases (0.35 vs. 0.8 d P <0.001), day cases (0.16 vs. 1.0 d ...
This is one of the largest studies of esophageal impactions and foreign bodies in adults in the United States, and the first to examine the effects of a protocol designed to avoid after-hours endoscop...
This ESGE Position Statement defines the expected value of artificial intelligence (AI) for the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal neoplasia within the framework of the performance measures ...
Gastroenterologists frequently face the dilemma of how to choose among different management options....
To develop a tool of medical decision analysis that helps choosing between competing management options of interventional endoscopy and surgery....
Carcinoma-in-situ of the esophagus, large colonic polyps, and ampullary adenoma serve as three examples for disorders being managed by both techniques. A threshold analysis using a decision tree was m...
If the decision in favor of surgery is focused exclusively on preventing death from a given disease, surgical intervention may seem to provide the best treatment option. However, interventional endosc...
Even if a management strategy surpasses its alternative with respect to one important outcome parameter, there is often still room for the lesser alternative to be considered as viable option....
In contrast to the "one-size-fits-all" approach, precision medicine focuses on providing health care tailored to individual variabilities. Implementing precision medicine in endoscopy practice involve...
Modern endoscopy relies on digital technology, from high-resolution imaging sensors and displays to electronics connecting configurable illumination and actuation systems for robotic articulation. In ...
Zenker's diverticulum is a rare disease that affects quality of life due to dysphagia and regurgitation. This condition can be treated by various surgical or endoscopic methods....
Patients treated for Zenker's diverticulum in three centers in the south of France between 2014 and 2019 were included. The primary objective was clinical efficacy. Secondary objectives were technical...
One hundred forty-four patients with a total of one hundred sixty-five procedures performed were included. A significant difference was found between the different groups in terms of clinical success ...
Flexible endoscopy appears to be as effective and safe as open surgery in the treatment of Zenker's diverticulum. Endoscopy allows a shorter hospital stay at the expense of a higher risk of recurrence...
