Book Synopsis Esophageal Function Testing, An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics, by : John Pandolfino
Download or read book Esophageal Function Testing, An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics, written by John Pandolfino and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2014-09-26 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue devoted to Esophageal Function Testing highlights these tests that are complimentary to endoscopy and should be considered after endoscopy is performed. In fact, a prerequisite for performing many of these studies is a negative endoscopy and thus, the endoscopist should be well-informed regarding the indication and utility of these tests. Additionally, some of these newer technologies require endoscopy to be performed during the study as the placement or positioning of the measurement tool will require endoscopic landmarks or direct placement. There have been major advances in most of these older techniques, and new novel measurement paradigms have been created that allow for a more visual and accurate depiction of physiologic and anatomic data. These technologies have evolved to be more akin to an imaging technique and thus, the visual display and data acquisition is much more intuitive and easier to teach to trainees. This review would be of the utmost importance to readers of GI Endoscospy Clinics.

Book Synopsis Benign and Neoplastic Conditions of the Esophagus, An Issue of Gastroenterology Clinics by : Nicholas J. Shaheen
Download or read book Benign and Neoplastic Conditions of the Esophagus, An Issue of Gastroenterology Clinics written by Nicholas J. Shaheen and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esophageal diseases are amongst the most common gastrointestinal illnesses encountered by both the gastroenterologist as well as the primary care physician. Gastroesophageal reflux symptoms affect 20% of adult Americans on a weekly or more frequent basis, and Barrett’s esophagus, a pre-cancerous lesion of the distal esophagus associated with chronic GERD, is prevalent in 2-6% of the adult population. Additionally, there have been remarkable advances in the care of esophageal diseases in the last several years, with the development of new imaging modalities, new physiological tests, and promising data emerging with respect to biomarkers for esophageal neoplasia. A relatively new clinical entity, eosinophilic esophagitis, is being characterized in the literature, and the ubiquity of this condition is now recognized. Given the dynamic nature of this area, the strides being made in esophageal diseases, and the importance of these diseases to clinicians practicing both subspecialty and general medicine, a volume dedicated to esophageal diseases is timely and necessary. The goals of this work are to familiarize clinicians with advances in care of patients with esophageal disorders, and to update them on new trends in epidemiology and outcomes of these diseases.

Book Synopsis Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding Management, An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics, by : John R. Saltzman
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.
Book Synopsis Advances in Colonoscopy, An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics, by : Douglas K. Rex
Download or read book Advances in Colonoscopy, An Issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics, written by Douglas K. Rex and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonosocopy is the bread and butter for endoscopists and advances in the procedure to reduce time, improve efficiency, and prevent errors are very important for this group. The newest advances look at colonoscopy efficiency and a better way to target tissue sampling, which avoids random biopsies and instead looks at ways to predict areas for sampling. The Guest Editors have selected top experts to provide these important updates and they also address current thinking that questions the continued value of colonoscopies as predictors of colon cancer. The issue will be a very popular one, and it needs to be heavily promoted.
