ASGE Presidential Plenary “Endoscopic

Innovation at Center Stage”

Ballroom 6AB, Upper Level, SDCC

Saturday, May 18, 9:00 AM – Noon

ASGE members are invited to join their colleagues for

coffee, doughnuts and the latest research.

This session will feature brief presentations of top

abstracts submitted to DDW. Each will be followed by a

lively talk or debate featuring eminent experts on each

subject. Topics will be germane to all endoscopists.

See detailed schedule on page 26.

Description:

In recent years, global endoscopy devices have been

witnessing growth due to various driving factors.

Some of the primary drivers include the rising need for

minimally invasive procedures, a diversity in patient

populations, increasing obesity rates and a shift towards

more geriatric patients. Not surprisingly, our patients

continue to demand more from us along with greater

efficiency. They no longer are willing to wait hours to be

cared for and seek experts who leverage best practices

in endoscopy technology and techniques in combination

with efficient care delivery systems. These combined

trends are a major component of our practices’ patient

satisfaction today. Where are you in keeping up with

endoscopic technique, technologies and practice trends?

This session is designed to facilitate your learning

on critical trends, studies and anticipated new best

practices from experts in the GI endoscopy field who

are integrating innovative approaches and improving

the quality of patient care. Topic areas will include the

use of Hemospray, over-the-scope clips, prophylactic

hemoclipping, bariatric therapies, computer-assisted

diagnostic systems, managing patients with pancreatic

cysts, EUS tools and techniques, EFTR and STER for

gastrointestinal subepithelial tumors and much more. In

addition, we will hear from ASGE women leaders who

are addressing career pathways for our future women

leaders in gastroenterology and GI endoscopy. We will

highlight the past challenges, the progression made and

barriers yet to be addressed. On the behalf of the faculty

of this session, we look forward to seeing you and

engaging in questions, answers and discussions on how

our profession continues to grow.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand critical drivers that are affecting GI

endoscopy techniques and unit practices.

• Identify one key study that will impact your

endoscopy practice.

• Describe current trends for women in GI Endoscopy

and Gastroenterology practices.
