Video Summary

In this video, Joe Vicari welcomes viewers to the ASGE Advanced Practice Provider video question of the week. He presents a case of a 50-year-old female who had a 5-millimeter tubular adenoma removed during a screening colonoscopy. The question asks when her first surveillance colonoscopy should be. The correct answer is seven years. Joe explains that according to the United States Preventative Task Force, if one to two tubular adenomas less than 10 millimeters are found during screening colonoscopy for an average-risk person, the recommended time for the first surveillance colonoscopy is seven to ten years. He invites viewers to join the upcoming Advanced Practice Provider course for more learning on screening modalities and other topics.
