@KevinWatsonJrMD @PedsGIChat @RossMaltz Bridge to a better surgery.

@deslilo @PedsGIChat @AustinChiangMD Same number of sensors over half the distance = higher resolution!!

Motilists right now:

@PLLU @PedsGIChat @AustinChiangMD There is a calculated degree of Goldilocks improvement I then look for - not too lax for reflux and not too tight for dysphagia. Some good studies have been done to calculate this.

[Muhammad Khan, MD @MuhammadKhanMD]

@PLLU @PedsGIChat @AustinChiangMD I get a baseline DI & pressure at the start of the procedure and understand what the DI is at the same pressure after the myotomy, under the same anesthetic conditions.

@PatReevesMD @drkeithsiau @DrDLerner As with any endoscopy:
1) Strive to be well trained (competently competent)
2) Learn how to manage endoscopic complications endoscopically
3) Know your limits

@deslilo @PedsGIChat Submucal expansion to prevent thermal injury or perforation of the muscularis mucosa when resecting a polyp.

@PedsGIChat Thank you for the opportunity @PedsGIChat My hands even thank you!

@PedsGIChat @PLLU @nationwidekids @deslilo @KarenDiefenbach Even the @AmerGastroAssn supports its use in motility/endoscopy centers of excellence!

@PedsGIChat @PLLU @nationwidekids @deslilo @KarenDiefenbach At the end of the day, this is a challenging population that we are still learning much about from the physiologic end, but there is a TON of interest in G-POEM and Gastric Electrical Stimulation!

@PedsGIChat @davidvitale Find an advanced endoscopist to help! We are (almost) everywhere!

[Muhammad Khan, MD @MuhammadKhanMD]

@PedsGIChat @davidvitale With all this technology available to us today, there’s no reason to make this child wait by getting MRCP (esp when NPV is 60%!), or even checking daily labs.

[Muhammad Khan, MD @MuhammadKhanMD]

@PLLU @PedsGIChat @davidvitale @DavidVitaleMD Yes, sorry @DavidVitaleMD !

@PedsGIChat @MeirMizrahi1 @MoamenGabrMD @Medtronic @olympusamericas @FujifilmUS @BostonSciWDD Maybe one day we can also have devices that help infants too?? Like an ERCP scope?? @olympusamericas @FujifilmUS @BostonSciWDD

[Muhammad Khan, MD @MuhammadKhanMD]

@PedsGIChat @MeirMizrahi1 @MoamenGabrMD The number of devices today from @Medtronic @olympusamericas @FujifilmUS @BostonSciWDD dedicated to just resecting polyps today is incredible! #technology #advancedendoscopy #endoscopy
