Institutional Set Up Incorporating CADe and CADx Colonoscopy into your Endoscopy Unit

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video features Dr. Shayan Thakkar discussing the importance of implementing computer-aided detection (CAD) and computer-aided diagnostic (CADX) systems in hospitals and ASCs for colonoscopy procedures. These systems can increase adenoma detection rates, reduce healthcare costs, and decrease the need for pathology and cancer diagnoses. The financial benefits include increased ambulatory payment classifications, higher pathology revenue, and shorter surveillance intervals for patients with histologically significant findings. The healthcare value of these systems is demonstrated by improved outcomes and reduced costs, as shown through micro-simulation modeling studies. The implementation team should include physician and nursing leadership, IT representation, vendors, and education is crucial for success. Marketing frameworks, outcome measures, and alternative pathways for implementation, such as research grants, are also discussed. Overall, implementing CAD and CADX systems can optimize healthcare processes and improve patient outcomes. No credits were mentioned in the transcript.
