Study of delays in planning endoscopy and hospital outcomes
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how delays in planning an endoscopy procedure affect how long people stay in the hospital and whether they return within 30 days. It may help hospitals schedule endoscopy care more smoothly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You were admitted to the hospital for at least 2 days between Jan 1, 2016 and Dec 1, 2022
- You had an endoscopy procedure during that hospital stay (such as gastroscopy, ERCP, EUS, flexible sigmoidoscopy, or colonoscopy)
- Your hospital admission was not an elective (planned in advance) admission
- The procedure was not only to place a feeding tube (nasogastric or nasojejunal) without other diagnostic or treatment goals

This study follows people after planned, higher-risk surgery to learn what complications happen and how patients do long-term. It may help doctors predict risks and improve care for people having similar operations.
This study looks at how general health factors (like age and other medical conditions) might affect how long you need to stay in the hospital after a routine stomach or bowel exam called an endoscopy. The goal is to understand which patients may need extra care so hospitals can plan better.
This study looks at why some older patients need to stay in the hospital longer after a common digestive procedure called ERCP. Researchers want to understand the factors that affect recovery time, which may help improve care for future patients.
This study is tracking patients who receive new types of endoscopy procedures at specialized centers. It aims to gather information on how these newer techniques work in real-world practice.
This study checks how well a special endoscopy tool (a duodenoscope) works and records technical outcomes during ERCP or related procedures you need for your care. It may help improve future safety and performance of the equipment used in these procedures.
This trial collects information about how interventional endoscopy procedures affect patients and outcomes after the procedure. You may be able to join if you’re an adult and scheduled for an endoscopy procedure at the specified digestive disease center.
