ASGE Guideline on Minimum Staffing Requirements for the Performance of GI Endoscopy

Pdf Summary

The ASGE has developed guidelines on minimum staffing requirements for GI endoscopy. Staffing depends on the type of sedation and complexity of the procedure. The survey found that for routine procedures without sedation, one staff member is recommended. For advanced procedures, one RN and an additional staff member are recommended. Further research is needed to assess patient outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
