Domain II: Gastroenterological Procedures
|
Task A: Collaborate with the health care team during endoscopic procedures to provide safe and effective care.
|
Knowledge of:
|
1. Endoscopic procedures ( e.g. diagnostic, interventional)
|
2. Equipment and accessories
|
3. Normal and abnormal gastrointestinal anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology
|
4. Environment of care (e.g. thermal burns, chemical spills, radiation, time out)
|
5. Pharmacology(e.g. sedation medication, reversal agents, procedure medications, resuscitative medication)
|
6. Physiological, psychological, social, spiritual, and cultural aspects of wellness
|
7. Potential complications and anticipated interventions (e.g. hemorrhage, perforation, compromised airway, medication reaction)
