ASGE Annual Postgraduate Course: Clinical Challenges and Real-Time Decision Making in GI Endoscopy (On-demand) | May 2023-Session 7 - Video Based Lecture 1 - Real Time Endoscopic Decision Making for Colon EMR

Session 7 - Video Based Lecture 1 - Real Time Endoscopic Decision Making for Colon EMR

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses real-time endoscopic decision-making for colon EMR. The speaker emphasizes the importance of making confident and efficient decisions during colonoscopy to improve outcomes. They demonstrate two examples of decision-making based on visual cues and discuss the different treatment approaches for each case. The speaker highlights the importance of classification systems, such as the PARIS classification system, in informing decision-making for optimal treatment. They also discuss the technique of dynamic injection to mold flat lesions into more polypoid shapes for easier resection. The video concludes with take-home points emphasizing the need to characterize lesion size, morphology, and predicted histology in real-time decision-making and to use existing classification systems and evidence to guide treatment decisions.
