This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a short few decades, the field of pediatric endoscopy has matured from the exploratory to the routine. Performance of endoscopic procedures in children is now a fundamental aspect of the practice of more than 2000 pediatric gastroenterologists in North America, and endoscopic instruments are increasingly being developed with an eye to their pediatric applications. Ensuring safe and effective endoscopy in children requires specific medical knowledge and technical competency, in addition to appropriately designed equipment and settings. Obtaining consent from parents, as well as assent from patients, for the purposes of performing diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal procedures begins with a deep understanding of risks and benefits that endoscopy affords and is typically gained through formal training in the field. Diagnostic endoscopy may help to confirm common pediatric conditions including eosinophilic esophagitis and inflammatory bowel disease, while therapeutic procedures to treat strictures in the GI tract may help children avoid more invasive surgeries. Using endoscopy in children to achieve hemostasis or to remove commonly swallowed foreign bodies, such as lithium batteries or high-powered magnets, can be lifesaving, and the insertion of feeding tubes can help medically complex patients to thrive. In short, pediatric endoscopy is an integral component of healthcare for children, and gaining and understanding of its best practices may help all clinicians to better recognize its role in pediatric disease outcomes.

This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is timely that this issue [is] focusing on a wide array of pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, has identified many of those disorders that may result from or be exacerbated by COVID-19. The authors also describe COVID driven changes in clinical practice, such as dramatically increased use of telemedicine, more intensive sterilization practices before and after GI procedures, and how these changes may impact the health care of children. Given that COVID-19 is likely to remain a global pandemic that is impacting children, it is important that we take this into consideration as we train our current and future pediatricians, including but not limited to those whose professional focus is pediatric gastroenterology. Dr. Pall and the authors who worked with him on this issue have done an excellent job balancing the new COVID necessitated changes in GI practice with other breakthroughs in pediatric GI to bring us this very timely issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America." -- Foreword.

Download or read book Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding Management An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics written by John R. Saltzman and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is the leading emergency leading to hospitalization and urgent endoscopy. The field of gastrointestinal bleeding is rapidly evolving. The epidemiology is changing with more complex older patients on anticoagulant and antithrombotic agents presenting with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The initial management has rapidly evolved with new transfusion thresholds, the use of risk stratification scores and no more nasogastric tubes. There is new data and recommendations on optimal timing of endoscopy. Medical therapies have also evolved with changes in proton pump inhibitor administration and the use of prokinetics to improve endoscopic visualization. Many modifications in endoscopic therapy have recently been advanced including the use of endoscopic ultrasound guided angiotherapy, topical sprays (i.e. Hemospray) and over-the-scope clips. In order to give optimal care to patients, it is critical that practicing gastroenterologists are aware of the many recent advances in management of patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
