Video Transcription

Video Summary

The presentation discusses leveraging automation and AI in endoscopy to enhance clinical decision-making, workflow efficiency, training, and data connectivity. Key technologies include CAD-E (computer-aided detection), which highlights polyps during procedures to improve adenoma detection rates, and CAD-X, which aims to distinguish neoplastic from non-neoplastic polyps but currently has accuracy limitations. Automation also helps streamline administrative tasks like procedure reporting and patient scheduling, reducing documentation burden. The GI Quick registry, a gastroenterology-specific quality database, collects and analyzes procedural data to benchmark outcomes, identify care gaps, and support research and guidelines. Data integration from EHRs and endoscopy systems facilitates quality improvement and helps meet reimbursement measures. Emerging cloud platforms enable video storage and AI-assisted real-time lesion analysis, promoting continuous innovation. While many technologies are not yet widely adopted, automation holds great promise for advancing endoscopy quality and operational excellence with ongoing research and development needed.
