Journal ArticleDOI
Colonoscopic miss rates of adenomas determined by back-to-back colonoscopies.
Douglas K. Rex,Christopher S. Cutler,Gregory T. Lemmel,Emad Y. Rahmani,David W. Clark,Debra J. Helper,Glen A. Lehman,David G. Mark +7 more
TL;DR: Using current colonoscopic technology, there are significant miss rates for adenomas < 1 cm even with meticulous colonoscopy, and the results suggest the need for improvements in colonoscope technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relative Sensitivity of Colonoscopy and Barium Enema for Detection of Colorectal Cancer in Clinical Practice
Douglas K. Rex,Emad Y. Rahmani,Joseph H. Haseman,Gregory T. Lemmel,Steven Kaster,Joseph S. Buckley +5 more
TL;DR: Hospital quality assurance committees and/or third-party payors should review the sensitivity of barium enema and Colonoscopy by practitioners in their institutions when sensitivity deviates significantly below the standard set by gastroenterologists performing colonoscopy in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening for Barrett's esophagus in colonoscopy patients with and without heartburn.
Douglas K. Rex,Oscar W. Cummings,Michael Shaw,Mark Cumings,Roy K.H Wong,Raj S Vasudeva,Donal Dunne,Emad Y. Rahmani,Debra J. Helper +8 more
TL;DR: Overall, BE was not associated with heartburn, although heartburn was more common in persons with LSBE or circumferential short segments, and SSBE is relatively common in people age > or =40 years with no prior endoscopy, irrespective of heartburn history.
Journal ArticleDOI
Safety of propofol administered by registered nurses with gastroenterologist supervision in 2000 endoscopic cases.
Douglas K. Rex,Chris Overley,Karen Kinser,Michelle Coates,Annie Lee,Brody W Goodwine,Eloise Strahl,Suzanne Lemler,Brian W. Sipe,Emad Y. Rahmani,Debra J Helper +10 more
TL;DR: Safety of propofol administered by registered nurses with gastroenterologist supervision in 2000 endoscopic cases is found to be consistent with previous studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Failure of colonoscopy to detect colorectal cancer: evaluation of 47 cases in 20 hospitals.
TL;DR: Several factors that might improve the quality and sensitivity of colonoscopy are suggested: examiners should receive adequate training, cecal intubation rates should be high, and cecAL intubations should be verified by specific landmarks in all cases.
