Round Table Discussion 1: Defining and Measuring Quality Endoscopy

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video transcript, a discussion kicks off with participants sharing their thoughts on various topics related to colonoscopy. One topic discussed is whether ADRs (adenoma detection rates) are lower when colonoscopies are performed by or with fellows. It is suggested that the quality of supervision plays a significant role in the accuracy of ADRs. The participants also discuss the use of FIT or Cologuard screening for adults with a history of small tubular adenomas, noting that it is not recommended by guidelines but may be considered in certain situations. Other topics covered include quality improvement in smaller institutions, handling serrated polyps in ADR calculations, and the recommended withdrawal time for colonoscopies.
