Inhaltsangabe

Build safer, more consistent endoscopy nursing practice from preprocedure preparation through discharge.

Endoscopy Nursing Procedures and Safety Manual is a practical clinical reference for nurses working across gastrointestinal endoscopy settings. Designed for bedside use, orientation, skills reinforcement, and unit-based education, this manual organizes the endoscopy nurse’s responsibilities around the full patient journey: preparation, verification, sedation support, physiologic monitoring, procedure assistance, recovery, complication recognition, discharge readiness, and follow-up.

Readers are guided through the safety-critical details that influence outcomes before, during, and after endoscopic procedures. The manual covers preprocedure assessment and readiness, infection prevention and room preparation, sedation and analgesia support, airway readiness and rescue, upper and lower gastrointestinal procedures, ERCP and EUS support, advanced endoscopy, accessories and electrosurgery, specimen management, medication handling, recovery surveillance, discharge education, emergency escalation, documentation, quality improvement, and team performance.

Each chapter is structured for clinical usability, with focused learning objectives, practical safety considerations, clinical pearls, red-flag alerts, documentation points, case-based reasoning, skills checklists, key terms, review questions, and concise chapter summaries. The emphasis stays on nursing judgment, workflow reliability, patient dignity, communication, and early recognition of deterioration.

Inside this manual, readers will find:

• Patient preparation, verification, and readiness workflows
• Sedation monitoring and airway safety principles
• Procedure-room setup, infection prevention, and equipment checks
• Nursing assistance for EGD, colonoscopy, ERCP, EUS, and advanced endoscopy
• Electrosurgery, accessory, specimen, and medication safety
• Recovery assessment and early complication recognition
• Discharge readiness, patient education, and follow-up guidance
• Emergency response, documentation, quality, and team-performance tools
• Practical appendices, glossary, and clinical topic index for quick reference

Whether used by an endoscopy nurse, perioperative nurse, ambulatory-care nurse, clinical educator, orientation preceptor, or nursing student entering procedural care, this manual provides a structured way to strengthen safety awareness, clinical reasoning, and consistent bedside practice.

A focused clinical manual for nurses who want endoscopy care to be prepared, monitored, documented, and completed with patient safety at the center.
