An excellent study by @BilalMohammadMD et. al.!

Thanks @BilalMohammadMD for highlighting our study in @GIE_Journal. We miss you!
Great study by my awesome former co-fellow @TimothyKrillMD in @GIE_Journal 👀 at outcomes for esophageal #FoodImpactions
✅EGD w/in vs. beyond 12 hrs of symptom onset has similar outcomes
✅Adverse events increase with accessory use
Important❓ Can EGD wait until the AM

A great thread from @BrennanSpiegel. This is what I mentioned on the @CrohnsColitisFn Facebook Live event.
▶️ACE2 receptors (mode of entry for SARS-CoV-2) present in sm bowel
▶️SARS-CoV-2 detectable in stool
▶️Reasonable to think that fecal spread occurs
▶️WASH YOUR HANDS! ✋🤚
Evolving #COVID19 data, please share: Could COVID19 spread through stool? In this thread, I will summarize what our editorial team at #AmJGastro knows about the risk of fecal spread. I will start by emphasizing that we do *not* yet know, for sure, if it spreads though... (1/10)

During this #COVID19 pandemic - which endoscopy cases are urgent vs elective. The results of the #GITwitterverse poll are attached
Some asked for a pdf link as well (below)
Ofcourse every case is unique, but some guidance as to what other #GIs think

My general stance is that losing groups of staff (MDs, nurses, techs etc), can happen v. quickly and is devastating clinically (think of how many patients any given staff member can care for in a week)- so N95s probably the way to go across the board. #GIjournalclub

Hot off the Press: Study shows that up to 50% of #COVID19 patients may present with GI symptoms including #anorexia and #diarrhea. And these patients had a worse clinical course. Let’s make sure our colleagues and the @CDCgov recognize this new information #NotJustCough – at Manhattan, NY
Study from The American Journal of #Gastroenterology Reveals Diarrhea is Prominent Symptom of #COVID19
Wuhan data show that up to half of patients present w/ a digestive symptom as chief complaint

For this weeks @GIJournal #GIjournalclub we will be discussing GIE article "Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak: what the department of endoscopy should know” and the Gastroenterology article “ Evidence for gastrointestinal infection of SARS-CoV-2” Wed March 18th @9pm EST

Seeing the #Covid_19 trend from other countries, it seems that elective procedures willl eventually be cancelled & resouces better utilized where pts will “most” need it. Lets not wait for a pt or staff member to get sick before acting on it
Keeping staff safe = better for pts

Great study by #Bazerbachi et al in the @GIE_Journal 👀 at efficacy of EUS-LB in detecting fibrosis in NAFLD
✅Only NAFLD pts
✅EUS-LB better than MRE in establishing fibrosis
✅Can be helpful in pts w obesity
Important❓:How to incorporate EUS-LB in routine practice in NAFLD
GIE just published a new study by Bazerbachi et al, “EUS-guided core liver biopsy sampling using a 22-gauge fork-tip needle.” ow.ly/TuI330pWlPV
