Full Description
This book is an all-in-one resource on providing and establishing high quality care in clinical gastroenterology. The text provides an in-depth analysis of not just guideline-based care, which is usually covered in shorter articles, but a combination of guidelines, quality metrics, and general standard of care in all areas of clinical practice and endoscopy. The book also covers high quality care for specific gastrointestinal disease states, such as inflammatory bowel disease, motility disorders, and pancreatic diseases, reviewing the appropriate timing of procedures for those conditions. Each chapter features a table of key quality measures for easy use and access. The chapters also discuss avoiding overuse of procedures, as well as instances where it may not be indicated to perform procedures. In addition, this volume combines the standards put forth by many different societies and groups into a single source for providers to use as a blueprint for standards of high quality care. Quality in Gastroenterology summarizes everything a practicing clinician needs for providing high quality care in one convenient place.
