What a pleasant surprise to have your article mentioned on the cover of one of my favorite journals - @GIE_Journal

Our article on #NVUGIB in pts post PCI for acute myocardial infarction, and an excellent editorial on our article by #JohnSaltzman

An excellent study by @BilalMohammadMD et. al.!
Triaging advanced GI endoscopy procedures during the COVID-19 Pandemic: consensus recommendations using the Delphi method.

A must-read! @GIE_Journal @mikewallacemd! Congrats to all the team!

The decision regarding endoscopy timing should be made on a case by case basis, and patient comfort should be a strong consideration.

Thanks @BilalMohammadMD for highlighting our study in @GIE_Journal. We miss you!

[Mohammad Bilal, MD @BilalMohammadMD]

Great study by my awesome former co-fellow @TimothyKrillMD in @GIE_Journal 👀 at outcomes for esophageal #FoodImpactions

✅EGD w/in vs. beyond 12 hrs of symptom onset has similar outcomes

✅Adverse events increase with accessory use

Important❓ Can EGD wait until the AM

[Timothy S. Krill, MD @TimothyKrillMD]

@AustinChiangMD Agreed. There was a trend towards statistical significance for success of the push technique alone in the early group. This suggests that early intervention might be a/w decreased need for accessories. We need future studies with higher power to investigate this further.

[David T. Rubin, MD @IBDMD]

A great thread from @BrennanSpiegel. This is what I mentioned on the @CrohnsColitisFn Facebook Live event.
▶️ACE2 receptors (mode of entry for SARS-CoV-2) present in sm bowel
▶️SARS-CoV-2 detectable in stool
▶️Reasonable to think that fecal spread occurs
▶️WASH YOUR HANDS! ✋🤚

During this #COVID19 pandemic - which endoscopy cases are urgent vs elective. The results of the #GITwitterverse poll are attached

Some asked for a pdf link as well (below)

Ofcourse every case is unique, but some guidance as to what other #GIs think

Super helpful guideline from @NYSGE re defining elective vs urgent endoscopic procedures in era of #coronavirus @AmCollegeGastro #GITwitter

[Tyler Berzin MD, FASGE @tberzin]

My general stance is that losing groups of staff (MDs, nurses, techs etc), can happen v. quickly and is devastating clinically (think of how many patients any given staff member can care for in a week)- so N95s probably the way to go across the board. #GIjournalclub

[Mark B. Pochapin, MD @MarkPochapin]

Hot off the Press: Study shows that up to 50% of #COVID19 patients may present with GI symptoms including #anorexia and #diarrhea. And these patients had a worse clinical course. Let’s make sure our colleagues and the @CDCgov recognize this new information #NotJustCough

[GI Journal Club @GiJournal]

For this weeks @GIJournal #GIjournalclub we will be discussing GIE article "Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak: what the department of endoscopy should know” and the Gastroenterology article “ Evidence for gastrointestinal infection of SARS-CoV-2” Wed March 18th @9pm EST

[Mohammad Bilal, MD @BilalMohammadMD]

Seeing the #Covid_19 trend from other countries, it seems that elective procedures willl eventually be cancelled & resouces better utilized where pts will “most” need it. Lets not wait for a pt or staff member to get sick before acting on it

Keeping staff safe = better for pts
