Objective:
It's still challenging to introduce colorectal (CR) ESD in Western countries. We assessed the feasibility of introducing and implementing CR-ESD in Sweden with hiring Japanese expert as a supervisor.
Methods:
We analyzed 71 consecutive CR-ESD cases performed by two endoscopists who had no (endoscopist A (E-A)) or 20 cases (endoscopist B (E-B)) of experience in ESD. E-A performed rectal lesions while E-B performed lesions in any locations. Factors associated with failure in en bloc resection and in self-accomplishment were analyzed.
Results:
Overall en bloc and R0 resection rates were 80.3% and 70.4%. Adverse event occurred in 7.0% including two perforations, two post-operative hemorrhage and one delayed perforation. Only case with delayed perforation underwent surgical treatment. Total self-accomplishment rate was 50% (10/20) for E-A, and 37.3% (19/51) for E-B. Dividing each performer's cases into three learning phases, self-accomplishment rates increased from 42.9% to 83.3% for E-A, and from 29.4% to 70.6% for E-B, as well as en bloc resection rates from 71.4% to 100% for E-A, and from 52.9% to 94.1% for E-B. Multivariate analysis revealed that location upper than rectum, lesions with formerly taken biopsy and lesions larger than 30mm were significantly associated with en bloc resection failure.
Conclusions:
Implementation of CR-ESD with hiring Japanese supervisor for certain period was safe for patients and effective for good learning curve.

Nursing Implementation
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.
Predicting Reaction Outcomes
Outcomes of Glycolysis
Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen). In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration starts with glycolysis and continues with pyruvate...
Heating and Cooling Curves
For instance, the addition of heat raises the temperature of a solid; the amount of heat absorbed depends on the heat capacity of the solid (q = mcsolidΔT). According to thermochemistry, the relation between the amount of heat absorbed or released by a substance, q, and its...
Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...
