Clinical guidance on endoscopic management of colonic polyps in Singapore

Colonoscopy with endoscopic resection of detected colonic adenomas interrupts the adenoma-carcinoma sequence and reduces the incidence of colorectal cancer and cancer-related mortality. In the past decade, there have been significant developments in instruments and techniques for endoscopic polypectomy. Guidelines have been formulated by various professional bodies in Europe, Japan and the United States, but some of the recommendations differ between the various bodies. An expert professional workgroup under the auspices of the Academy of Medicine, Singapore, was set up to provide guidance on the endoscopic management of colonic polyps in Singapore. A total of 23 recommendations addressed the following issues: accurate description and diagnostic evaluation of detected polyps; techniques to reduce the risk of post-polypectomy bleeding and delayed perforation; the role of specific endoscopic resection techniques; the histopathological criteria for defining endoscopic cure; and the role of surveillance colonoscopy following curative resection.

Chapter of Gastroenterologists professional guidance on risk mitigation for gastrointestinal endoscopy during COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore

In this paper, we aimed to provide professional guidance to practising gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopists for the safe conduct of GI endoscopy procedures during the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and future outbreaks of similar severe respiratory tract infections in Singapore. It draws on the lessons learnt during the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic and available published data concerning the COVID-19 pandemic. It addresses measures before, during and after endoscopy that must be considered for both non-infected and infected patients, and provides recommendations for practical implementation.

Chapter of Gastroenterologists professional guidance for management of patients with liver disease in Singapore during the COVID-19 pandemic

In this paper, we aim to provide professional guidance to clinicians who are managing patients with chronic liver disease during the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Singapore. We reviewed and summarised the available relevant published data on liver disease in COVID-19 and the advisory statements that were issued by major professional bodies, such as the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases and European Association for the Study of the Liver, contextualising the recommendations to our local situation.

Effect of preoperative carbohydrate treatment on patients in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Objective To evaluate the safety of preoperative oral carbohydrate treatment for the patients in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) and the treatment effect on the perioperative state of the patients.Methods A prospective controlled research was conducted in the patients who had received selective operation for fractures at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma,Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from August 2016 to August 2017.They were divided into 2 groups according to the floor where they stayed.In the traditional fasting group (group TF),fasting was performed one day before operation at 12:00 p.m.;in the preoperative carbohydrate treatment group (group PCT),12.6％ mahodextrin fructose beverage was indicated one day before operation and on the day of operation.The patients in both groups were managed according to ERAS requirements perioperatively.The fasting blood glucose values were measured at admission,just before operation,immediately after operation,and on the next day after operation.The subjective feelings,grip strength and adverse reactions in the 2 groups were observed and recorded.Results A total of 171 patients,112 in group TF and 59 in group PCT,participated in the whole observation.The blood gluco.se value just before operation in group PTC(5.9 ± 1.0 mmol/L) was significantly higher than that (5.2 ±0.6 mmol/L) in group TF (P ＜ 0.05).In group TF,the blood glucose values immediately before operation,immediately and on the next day after operation (5.2 ± 0.6 mmol/L,5.4 ± 1.1 mmol/L and 5.4 ± 1.0 mmol/L) were significantly lower than that at admission (5.7 ± 1.1 mmol/L) (P ＜ 0.05);in group PTC,the blood glucose values immediately and on the next day after operation (5.4 ±0.7 mmol/L and 5.2 ±0.7 mmol/L) were significantly lower than those immediately before operation and at admission (5.9 ± 1.0 mmol/L and 5.9 ± 1.0 mmol/L) (P ＜0.05).Patients in group PTC reported milder uneasy subjective feelings than those in group TF.The grip strength values immediately and on the next day after operation in group PTC (34.3 ± 10.4 kg and 34.5 ± 10.9 kg) were higher than those in group TF (29.1 ± 13.1 kg and 30.1 ± 12.0 kg).Patients in group PCT showed higher satisfaction with perioperative fasting management than those in group TF [9 (9,9) versus 8 (7,9)].All the above differences were significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Preoperative carbohydrate treatment by oral intake of maltose and fructose drinks may be safe and feasible in fracture patients,benefiting their energy storage during fasting and improving their perioperative subjective feelings.
