More About This Title Successful Training in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

English

Endoscopy is the primary diagnostic method for GI complaints and is replete with an ever expanding array of therapeutic capabilities. Successful Training in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy will provide all gastroenterologists with the exact set of skills required to perform endoscopy at the highest level. GI trainees will find it a crucial primer for learning endoscopy; teachers will find it a guide to understand how best to develop the expertise of their students; and experienced practicing gastroenterologists will find it a useful refresher tool to brush up on their existing endoscopic skills and to familiarise themselves with new procedures, including issues of safety and competence while performing them.

With contributions from internationally recognized leaders in endoscopy education and an endorsement by the World Organisation of Digestive Endoscopy, each chapter will examine the specific skill sets and procedure related tasks which must be mastered when learning a particular technique, including:

  • Specific descriptions of accessories required
  • Standard training methods for the procedure
  • Optimal utilization of novel learning modalities such as simulators
  • Quality measures and objective parameters for competency
  • Available tools for assessing competency once training has been completed

In addition to the 400 high-quality, outstanding colour photos, the book will come with a DVD containing over 130 annotated teaching videos of both actual procedures and ex-vivo animal model simulations. These videos will illustrate, in a step by step fashion the proper techniques to be followed, highlighting clinical pearls from the experts and the most common mistakes to avoid.

Successful Training in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy will be a key purchase for all gastroenterologists, whether in training or experienced, to allow them to develop and perfect their endoscopic skills. It will be a particularly useful guide for those interested in mastering the latest new techniques and procedures and an essential reference for teachers of endoscopy and students alike.

Note: DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file. These materials are available for download upon purchase.

English

"Jonathan Cohen’s textbook detailing the successful teaching and learning of endoscopy techniques is an important and innovative work. Situated between Peter Cotton’s Practical Gastrointestinal Endoscopyand Greg Ginsberg’s Clinical Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, this is a new and very useful textbook for all those who perform gastrointestinal endoscopy."  (Gastroenterology, 1 March 2012)

“This is a very useful addition to the GI endoscopy training literature. The authors have channeled their many decades of collective expert endoscopic experience into a book that clearly represents their prowess as teachers. I would rank this as essential for the bookshelf of GI endoscopists (especially trainees).”  (Doody’s, 6 April 2012)
