Filter by:The operative link on gastric intestinal metaplasia assessment (OLGIM) staging systems using biopsy specimens were commonly used for histological assessment of gastric cancer risk. But its clinical application is limited for at least biopsy samples. The endoscopic grading system (EGGIM) has been shown a significant correlation with the OLGIM. The investigators designed a computer-aided diagnosis program using deep neural network to automatically evaluate the extent of IM and calculate the EGGIM scores in endoscopy examination. This study is aimed at exploring the relevance of the EGGIM scores automatically evaluated by Artificial Intelligence and OLGIM scores.
Gastric intestinal metaplasia(GIM) is an important stage in the gastric cancer(GC). With technical advance of image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE), studies have demonstrated IEE has high accuracy for diagnosis of GIM. The endoscopic grading system (EGGIM), a new endoscopic risk scoring system for GC, have been shown to accurately identify a wide range of patients with GIM. However, the high diagnostic accuracy of GIM using IEE and EGGIM assessments performed all require much experience, which limits the application of EGGIM. The investigators aim to design a computer-aided diagnosis program using deep neural network to automatically evaluate the extent of IM and calculate the EGGIM scores.
A growing number of Chinese breast cancer patients are diagnosed at a young age. The quality of life of young breast cancer patients has been a critical issue. Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) not only removes the tumor but also maintains the appearance of breast. The Breast Tumor Center of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital is one of the first departments in China to perform breast-conserving surgeries. Endoscopic breast surgery has emerged as a promising surgical approach. However, it is hard to delineate the tumor margins in endoscopic BCS, which restrains its development. In traditional BCS, surgeons determine the tumor border by palpation, which is impossible in endoscopic BCS. For the first time, we performed the intra-operative navigation system-assisted endoscopic breast-conserving surgery, in which the tumor border was accurately delineated using the navigation system.
Study objective: To establish a quality control system for gastrointestinal endoscopy based on artificial intelligence technology and an auxiliary diagnosis system that can perform lesion identification, improving the detection rate of early gastrointestinal cancer while standardizing, normalizing, and homogenizing the endoscopic treatment in primary hospitals (including some of the primary hospitals, which are participating in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Medical Consortium) under Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Artificial Intelligence Cloud Platform as the hardware base. Study design: This study is a prospective, multi-center, real-world study.
According to the current published data and treatment mechanism, ARMS may led to more stenosis while ARMA may be less effective in long term follow-up. The changes of patient's life quality , UGI tract microbiota before and after different endoscopic treatment are also limited. So we want to conduct a exploratory prospective randomized controlled study in evaluating the mucosal healing, demand of PPI, life quality, emotion status, sleep quality, esophageal motility/ acid exposure and saliva microbiota between chronic GERD patients receiving ARMS and ARMA treatment.
Nitrous oxide (commonly known as 'laughing gas') is often used during dental and other outpatient procedures, because it is easy to administer, is short-acting and rapidly clears from the body following the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that use of Nitrous oxide during GI endoscopy may enhance patient comfort during the procedure and speed-up post-procedure recovery, while minimizing the fatigue and mental fogginess some patients report the day after receiving standard sedative and narcotic drugs used routinely for the procedure. The investigators are interested in determining if adding Nitrous Oxide to commonly used sedation drugs will decrease fatigue, mental fogginess, and nausea/vomiting, as well as determine when the patient felt fully recovered from the effects of all sedatives given for the procedure.
Endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract using fiberoptic endoscopes was introduced in the late 1950s and provided the first opportunity for direct visualization of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum and colon in vivo. GI Endoscopy is usually considered a safe and effective procedure. However complications do exist and procedure related costs are significant. There is a lack of prospective studies on complications of diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures.There is a lack of prospective studies on complications of diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures. Knowledge of potential endoscopic adverse events, their expected frequency, and the risk factors for their occurrence may help to minimize the incidence of adverse events. Review of adverse events as part of a continuing quality improvement process may serve to educate endoscopists, help to reduce the risk of future adverse events, and improve the overall quality of endoscopy.
Mitochondrial DNA mutations in normal gastric tissue, early gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer were identified by single cell sequencing, and the origin of gastric stem cells was traced and new molecular markers were found. At the same time, organize industry-university-research-medical inspection joint research, aiming at the advanced layout of new structural and functional imaging technologies, combined with some new imaging technologies, such as holography, fluorescence, etc., to explore and develop a new composite endoscopic imaging technology that is advanced, original and suitable for China's national conditions, in order to develop a prototype of multimodal structural and functional imaging digestive endoscope without contrast agent.
Background and Aim: Pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is an increasingly common procedure performed to investigate and diagnose problems in the GI tract in children. Procedures in pediatric endoscopy units are routinely performed under sedation and general anesthesia, unlike adult endoscopy. Nurses working in pediatric gastroenoscopy units where sedoanalgesia is applied have important duties and responsibilities in terms of quality standards in preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative periods. Considering the increasing need for high-quality pediatric endoscopy applications, the attitudes and behaviors of nurses about sedation in pediatric patients are important as a member of the team. There is almost no literature on the experience and awareness of pediatric endoscopy nurses in clinical practice, and this encourages our team to conduct a survey across our country and to develop knowledge and clinical practices. With this questionnaire survey, it was aimed to evaluate the experience and attitudes of the endoscopy nurses working in the pediatric endoscopy unit in our country on sedation/general anesthesia management for pediatric patients
The aim of the study is retrospectively evaluating all features of endoscopic and pathological diagnoses of cases who underwent upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy.
