Main description:

This guide walks you through the set-up, supplies, nursing considerations, troubleshooting, and steps to successfully assist during cutting edge interventional Gastroenterological procedures that are being performed to offer patients a safer and more cost effective treatment option.

This key resource contributes, as the first of its kind, by helping endoscopic surgical centers to prepare for and train staff in order to offer these new and on the rise procedures to their patients. It goes into detail on each procedure and why a patient would benefit from it. Pictures will be included to demonstrate what the procedure will look like. A detailed step-by-step manual including photos will be put together on each case describing the set-up, pre, intra, and post-procedure care and responsibilities.

This step-by-step guide includes a full range of highly advanced procedures that are on the forefront of medicine. It will help Endoscopy nurses and technicians, as well as radiology technicians and endoscopists, who are being trained to perform or assist in these new and complex procedures.
