COVID-19 Statement

Things have changed drastically since we started planning GIEQs.

COVID-19 restrictions mean we cannot plan a face-to-face event in 2020. We have therefore decided to stream the entire congress right here on GIEQs.com.

We remain committed to the face-to-face event and will reschedule this in 2021 and we very much look forward to welcoming you to Ghent!

Join us for GIEQs II

Released prior to the early bird deadline these 6, 1-2 minute video snippets demonstrate the attention to detail, deconstructed approach and rock solid evidence base of the GIEQs Approach.

1 - Over the Scope Clip for Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Use of OTSC as first-line for life threatening upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage.

2 - Early Gastric Cancer
Can you identify and characterise this early gastric cancer? Watch the video for more information including endoscopic resectability

3 - The Demarcated Area as a Predictor of Submucosal Invasion in Colon Polyps
the Demarcated Area has emerged as a stable predictor of submucosal invasive cancer. Find out more here.

4 - Dealing with Adverse Events at Colonic Polypectomy
To be able to competently perform colonic polypectomy you must be able to deal with adverse events. A deconstructed example is shown here.

5 - Complex EUS applications to make Everyday ERCP easier
Endoscopic Ultrasound is radically changing the way we approach biliary intervention and can make a difference to everyday endoscopic problems.

6 - Decision Making after Large perforation and life threatening Bleeding during Polypectomy
Many of the GIEQs faculty spend their normal working lives on complex endoscopy. Learning the lessons and approach from these procedures, deconstructing them and bringing them to the everyday is a crucial part of the GIEQs approach.

GIEQs Accreditation Statement

The 3rd Ghent International Endoscopy Quality Symposium (GIEQs), Gent, Belgium, 29/09/2021 - 30/09/2022 has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 16 European CME credits (ECMEC®s). Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity. Through an agreement between the Union Européenne des Médecins Spécialistes and the American Medical Association, physicians may convert EACCME® credits to an equivalent number of AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Information on the process to convert EACCME® credit to AMA credit can be found at www.ama-assn.org/education/earn-credit-participation-international-activities

Live educational activities, occurring outside of Canada, recognised by the UEMS-EACCME® for ECMEC®s are deemed to be Accredited Group Learning Activities (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. EACCME® credits.

Each participant can only receive the number of credits he/she is entitled to according to his/her actual participation at the event once he/she has completed the feedback form. Cf. criteria 9 and 23 of UEMS 2016.20.

CMEC®s per day:
29.09.2022 - 8.00
30.09.2022 - 8.00

The EACCME® awards ECMEC®s on the basis of 1 ECMEC® for one hour of CME with a maximum of 8 ECMEC®s per day. Cf. Chapter X of UEMS 2016.20.

At GIEQs we believe we can do everyday endoscopy better.
Together, using an emerging evidence base we can increase the quality of everyday endoscopic interventions.
