This course contains recordings from the live course that took place at DDW in Washington D.C. in May of 2024.
Gastrointestinal endoscopists across the globe look to future trends, such as the conversion of GI endoscopy data into 3D images, and how this and other technologies may advance endoscopic practice that improves patient care.  Yet, how can endoscopists integrate all these technologies when the cost of procedures continues to challenge early practice adoption? How do endoscopic practices address managing larger geriatric patient populations who present with increasing co-morbidities? Also, how does one manage the ever-changing patient lifestyle where unhealthy nutritional habits continue to grow, increasing other GI disease states? ASGE’s 2024 Postgraduate Course: Leveraging New Advances to Improve Patient Outcomes is guaranteed to provide essential endoscopic resources, current research highlights and forward practice trends. 

During the course, you’ll identify practice resources you can use with sessions that cover topics such as:

• Pancreatobiliary disease states
• Esophageal disorders
• Emerging trends in high-quality colonoscopy techniques
• Management of endoscopic varices
• And more!

• Appraise evidence-based practice recommendations in the management of colon polyps and high-quality colonoscopy
• Discuss critical updates in endohepatology and endobariatrics
• Recognize endoscopic complications and management techniques
• Identify management of pancreatitis and associated complications
• List key indications, contraindications and set-up of endoscopic procedures in pregnant and other high-risk patients
• Compare and contrast practical approaches to gastrointestinal health in LGBTQIA+ patients
• Discuss advancing endoscopy training throughout post-gastroenterology fellowship years

1. Close other applications and browser tabs. This decreases the load on memory so your computer or other device can focus on streaming.
2. Use a 5 GHz frequency if your router supports it. The common 2.4 GHz frequency is used by household appliances, so is more crowded. Avoiding it is like getting into the carpool lane on a freeway: smoother sailing.
3. Use Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi if possible but GI LEAP is built with Wi-Fi in mind. 
4. Monitor your internet connection. If your ISP has promised you 5MBps and you are getting only 1MBps, it's time for a phone call to your internet provider to sort that out.
