Healthcare Quality in Endoscopy | October 2021-Updates in Colonoscopy Surveillance in 2021

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discussed updates in colonoscopy surveillance and presented case scenarios with questions about the best recommendations for further management. The main focus was on the recently released recommendations for follow-up after colonoscopy and polypectomy. The recommendations were based on evidence that showed similar outcomes for individuals with low-risk adenomas compared to those with no findings. The new recommended intervals for repeat surveillance colonoscopy were seven to 10 years for individuals with one to two small tubular adenomas, and three to five years for those with three to four small tubular adenomas. Additionally, the video mentioned recommendations for individuals with serrated polyps and discussed the limitations and considerations of the multi-target stool DNA test. Overall, the changes in surveillance guidelines aimed to provide more tailored and evidence-based recommendations to reduce the risk of subsequent neoplasia. The video concluded by highlighting the importance of surveillance colonoscopy and the value of high-quality care. No credits were mentioned in the video.
