Quality indicators for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
UEG and EPC, in cooperation with representatives from many UEG Member Societies, nurses and other experts are developing quality indicators for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The kick-off meeting took place at UEG Week 2024.
Stay tuned – results will be published in UEG Journal in 2026.
Quality Improvement in Endoscopy initiative
The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) and United European Gastroenterology (UEG) have a vision to create a thriving community of endoscopy services across Europe, collaborating with each other to provide high quality, safe, accurate, patient-centred and accessible endoscopic care. Whilst the boundaries of what can be achieved by advanced endoscopy are continually expanding, we believe that one of the most fundamental steps to achieving our goal is to raise the quality of everyday endoscopy. The development of robust, consensus- and evidence-based key performance measures is the first step in this vision.
