In contrast, there was a trend towards more investigations in the year after the primary endoscopic procedure by a nurse.…”

“…1 This represents a significant increase in numbers when compared with figures from October 2000. 2 A survey in the USA in 1999 revealed that 15% (24 of 164) of units in a gastroenterology fellowship programme use paramedical personnel to perform flexible sigmoidoscopy 3 and this role was approved by state boards of nursing in most states.…”

“…Endoscopists were asked to record details of the endoscope used; drugs given; distance the scope was inserted (for FS); duration of examination; immediate complications; and need for assistance (Appendix 8). The data extracted were compared between doctors and nurses by 2 and t-tests.…”

“…Hospitals volunteered to take part in response to a letter of invitation to Discussion all members of the BSG in 2000, at a time when the numbers of nurse endoscopists in the UK was relatively small. 2 Thirty hospitals expressed initial interest. Seven dropped out between proposal development and the eventual start of the study for a variety of reasons, including staff changes and clinical workload.…”

HTA NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA Programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. Suggestions for topics are actively sought from people working in the NHS, the public, service-users groups and professional bodies such as Royal Colleges and NHS Trusts.Research suggestions are carefully considered by panels of independent experts (including service users) whose advice results in a ranked list of recommended research priorities. The HTA Programme then commissions the research team best suited to und...

“…The nurses knowledge for control group at pre and post program was changes, although they are not exposed them to instructional program, It is noticeable at most of program domains and total domains which as 47% of them don't know how to prepare the patients for endoscopy at pre-test and reduces the percent of not known between them to 43.5% at posttest, this finding is supported by Pathmakanthan et al,(2001) they presented in their study on 102 nurse endoscopists to determine the prevalence and potential benefits associated with attitudes towards nurse endoscopy in the UK. The significant advancements shown at the post-guidelines program period indicate these nurses were in real need for such information.…”
