A key aspect of pediatric gastroenterology practice is the ability to perform endoscopy procedures safely, effectively, and efficiently. Similar to adult endoscopy, performance of pediatric endoscopy requires the acquisition of related technical, cognitive, and integrative competencies to effectively diagnose and manage gastrointestinal disorders in children. However, the distinctive requirements of pediatric patients and their families and the differential spectrum of disease highlight the need for a pediatric-specific training curriculum and assessment framework to ensure endoscopic procedures are performed safely and successfully in children. This review outlines the current state of evidence as it pertains to pediatric endoscopy training and assessment.
儿科胃肠病学实践的一个关键方面是能够安全、有效且高效地进行内镜检查程序。与成人内镜检查类似,儿科内镜检查的实施需要掌握相关的技术、认知和综合能力,以便有效地诊断和管理儿童胃肠道疾病。然而,儿科患者及其家庭的独特需求以及不同的疾病谱凸显了制定针对儿科的培训课程和评估框架的必要性,以确保在儿童中安全且成功地进行内镜检查程序。本综述概述了与儿科内镜检查培训和评估相关的现有证据状况。
