This guideline document, prepared by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, aims to provide best practice recommendations based on scientific evidence and considering various factors. However, it acknowledges that clinical decision-making is complex and guidelines cannot substitute a clinician's judgment. Clinical decisions should consider the clinician's experience, local expertise, available resources, and patient values. The document should not be used as a legal standard or in support of medical complaints, legal proceedings, and/or litigation.
This guideline document was prepared by the Standards of Practice Committee of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy using the best available scientific evidence and considering a multitude of variables including, but not limited to, adverse events, patients' values, and cost implications. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide the best practice recommendations that may help standardize patient care, improve patient outcomes, and reduce variability in practice. We recognize that clinical decision-making is complex. Guidelines, therefore, are not a substitute for a clinician's judgment. Such judgements may, at times, seem contradictory to our guidance because of many factors that are impossible to fully consider by guideline developers. Any clinical decisions should be based on the clinician's experience, local expertise, resource availability, and patient values and preferences. This document is not a rule and should not be construed as establishing a legal standard of care or as encouraging, advocating for, mandating, or discouraging any particular treatment. Our guidelines should not be used in support of medical complaints, legal pro-ceedings, and/or litigation, as they were not designed for this purpose.
