Endoscopy in the outpatient setting.

Abstract:

:Office endoscopy is an accepted safe alternative to in-hospital care. Attention to detail will help to ensure that the vast majority of procedures will be successfully completed without incident. Although there are regional differences, in many parts of North America office endoscopy has become mainstream, and is preferred for common procedures. However, quality endoscopy is more complex than clean scopes and clean rooms. This article highlights many issues that serve to make office endoscopy a safe alternative to in-hospital procedures.
