Quality assurance in flexible sigmoidoscopy: Medical and nonmedical endoscopists (2009)
Journal Article
Maslekar, S., Waudby, P., Avery, G., Monson, J. R. T., & Duthie, G. S. (2010). Quality assurance in flexible sigmoidoscopy: Medical and nonmedical endoscopists. Surgical Endoscopy, 24(1), 89-93. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00464-009-0553-9

Purpose: The clinical assessment of position in colon and hence completion during flexible sigmoidoscopy (FS) is believed to be inaccurate. The technique of applying endomucosal clips with follow-up X-ray has previously been used for establishing com...

Patient satisfaction with lower gastrointestinal endoscopy: doctors, nurse and nonmedical endoscopists (2009)
Journal Article
Maslekar, S., Hughes, M., Gardiner, A., Monson, J. R. T., & Duthie, G. S. (2010). Patient satisfaction with lower gastrointestinal endoscopy: doctors, nurse and nonmedical endoscopists. Colorectal disease, 12(10), 1033-1038. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1463-1318.2009.01989.x

Aim Assessment of patient satisfaction with lower gastrointestinal endoscopy (LGE) comprising colonoscopy and flexible sigmoidoscopy is gaining increasing importance. We have now trained non healthcare professionals such as nonmedical endoscopists (N...

Quality assurance in colonoscopy: role of endomucosal clips (2009)
Journal Article
Maslekar, S., Avery, G., & Duthie, G. S. (2010). Quality assurance in colonoscopy: role of endomucosal clips. Colorectal Disease, 12(7), 651-656. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1463-1318.2009.01874.x

Objective Quality assurance in colonoscopy is important, and subjective assessment of completion based on endoscopic signs can be inaccurate leading to missed lesions. We aimed to determine the technique of endomucosal clips with follow-up X-rays in... Read More about Quality assurance in colonoscopy: role of endomucosal clips.

Randomized clinical trial of Entonox ® versus midazolam-fentanyl sedation for colonoscopy (2009)
Journal Article
Maslekar, S., Gardiner, A., Hughes, M., Culbert, B., & Duthie, G. S. (2009). Randomized clinical trial of Entonox ® versus midazolam-fentanyl sedation for colonoscopy. British journal of surgery, 96(4), 361-368. https://doi.org/10.1002/bjs.6467

Background: Intravenous sedation for colonoscopy is associated with cardiorespiratory complications and delayed recovery. The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to compare the efficacy of Entonox ® (50 per cent nitrous oxide and 50 per cent o...
