ASGE interventions to improve ADR

Pdf Summary

This document discusses various interventions to improve the adenoma detection rate (ADR) during colonoscopy. Feedback and education, including report cards and structured training programs, have been effective in improving ADR. Advanced imaging techniques such as narrow-band imaging and linked-color imaging enhance polyp detection. Split-dose bowel preparations and video recording of procedures also improve ADR. Nurse assistance during colonoscopy increases polyp detection rates. Financial incentives and public reporting of quality data have mixed results. Overall, tailored combinations of these interventions can improve ADR and colonoscopy quality.
