GI bleeding is incredibly common - Accurate risk stratification is needed to allocate resources. Dr. Leiman from @Duke_GI_ and I discuss the future of using EHR-based Machine Learning to efficiently identify low/high risk UGIB patients in this editorial

Risk prediction in acute LGIB remains tricky, with limited data comparing validated tools and impact on outcomes. @NatalieTapaskar and I report results in @GIE_Journal comparing existing scores and adverse outcomes in acute LGIB @medchiefs @UChicagoGI

Great new Guideline - Well worth downloading and reading

And lastly concerns about volume - in the guideline we have used national incidence data to predict additional number of scopes - we think an extra 9500/year or 66 per hospital/year which is an additional 5 per month

I still maintain that in addition to quality #colonoscopy technique & adequate prep, advancements in colonoscope optics eg #FUSE, are needed. The #endoscope industry must be more innovative! See RCT by Kudo et al & accompanying editorial in #GIE 2018;88:5, what do others think? – at Israel
