Gastrointestinal endoscopy carries inherent risks. Physicians should practice risk management, conduct yearly self-reviews, and engage with hospital quality assurance for improved patient safety and physician education.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Risk Management
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • Gastrointestinal endoscopy is a common medical procedure.
  • The practice of endoscopy is associated with potential patient risks.
  • Effective risk management is crucial for safe endoscopic procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To emphasize the importance of risk management in gastrointestinal endoscopy.
  • To guide physicians on applying risk management principles to their practice.
  • To highlight the role of quality assurance in enhancing endoscopic safety.

Main Methods:

  • Discussion of risk management tenets relevant to endoscopy.
  • Recommendation for annual retrospective review of endoscopic practices.
  • Emphasis on the integration of physician education within quality assurance.
