The ASGE Guidelines

The ASGE (American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy) Guidelines provide recommendations for diagnosing and managing digestive system conditions using specialized procedures like endoscopy. They aim to ensure safe, effective, and evidence-based care by guiding healthcare providers on best practices, appropriate use of procedures, and when to perform tests. These guidelines help balance the benefits and risks, optimize patient outcomes, and promote quality standards in gastrointestinal healthcare. Essentially, they serve as a roadmap for clinicians to deliver consistent, high-quality care tailored to individual patient needs.
