    2017, Techniques in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
    Citation Excerpt :

    Short courses may have a potential role for experienced endoscopists to learn new techniques; however, they should not be regarded as an alternative primary training for ERCP [64].

  • Guidelines for privileging, credentialing, and proctoring to perform GI endoscopy

    2017, Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
    Citation Excerpt :

    “Minor skill” describes a new nonexperimental development that is a minor extension of an accepted and widely available technique or procedure (eg, radiofrequency ablation of Barrett’s esophagus, over-the-scope clips). For most GI endoscopists, obtaining competency in a minor skill should involve education and practical exposure such as that obtained from short courses, training videos, endoscopic simulators, and interactive computer programs.60 For a minor skill, the duration of training should not be fixed but rather reflect the time needed for the participant to master it.

    2014, Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
    Citation Excerpt :

    We therefore propose that the revised adenoma quality metric (adenoma/colonoscopy, APC) minimum detection benchmarks be set at 0.50 for men and 0.2 for women. Recent studies have shown ADRs routinely higher than the minimum detection benchmarks, approaching 60% to 70% in some studies.14 Our findings allow extrapolation to high-level adenoma detectors.
