Routine Polypectomy Practices Vary Widely Among US Endoscopists and Commonly Deviate From Guidelines: An Analysis of Colonoscopy Registry Data.
Introduction: Best practices for removal of <1 cm colon polyps exist, but adherence to this guidance is uncertain.
Methods: Using Gastroenterology Quality Improvement Consortium Registry (GIQuIC) data, colonoscopies with polyps <1 cm were analyzed for polypectomy technique used and differences in practices according to patient, procedure, and provider characteristics.
Results: Among 1,830,067 colonoscopies, cold forceps, cold snare, and hot snare polypectomy techniques were used in 35%, 58%, and 11% of cases, respectively. Technique varied by polyp type, geographic region, and provider specialty. Gastroenterologists' practices aligned with guidelines more closely than non-GI endoscopists.
Discussion: Polypectomy technique varies widely among US endoscopists and may not follow best practices.
