Reducing Readmissions Following Bronchoscopies
Wednesday, December 8, 2021 at 6:00 pm ET
Review the healthcare quality, patient safety, and infection prevention aspects of risks associated with bronchoscopies and the impacts on 30-day readmissions based on the type of device used in the clinical procedure.
GI Panel: Duodenoscope Advances to Reduce Infectious Transmission
Join three doctors with expertise and insight into endoscope cross-contamination as they discuss their first-hand experience with the latest innovations in duodenoscope technology.
Public Health
Flexible bronchoscopes are a valuable asset in places where tuberculosis continues to ravage and resources are constrained. TB is one of the leading causes of death worldwide.
Endoscopy Tech
A new system enables urologists to perform various endoscopic procedures with nothing more than a scope and their smartphone.
Preventing Infection
Bigger hospitals typically offer more complex services, putting added strain on reprocessing departments — and the quality of reprocessing depends on the resources made available to the teams that do that work.
Endoscopy Tech
Researchers set out to evaluate and rate the feasibility, safety, performance, and user experience of a disposable duodenoscope used in ERCP procedures.
Performing Procedures
Otolaryngologists from around the world acknowledge that aches and pains are common in their profession and that they have received little training in proper ergonomics along the way.
Patient Safety
Concerns over cross-contamination and flexible endoscopes continue to fuel research and conversation around endoscope reprocessing best practices.
Public Health
A pair of studies found patients with COVID-19 or those recovered from it may deal with lingering issues.
Bronchoscopy Procedure
A procedure-specific graphic narrative may be a “simple tool” to help ease patients through the consent process. Would it have a similar effect on alleviating stress before and after the procedure?
Preventing Infection
The findings are significant because reducing preventable hospital readmissions is a national priority for payers, providers, and policymakers seeking to improve healthcare and lower costs.
