    • Respond to any complications or adverse reactions during procedures, including nausea, bleeding, or respiratory distress.
  • Post-Procedure Care and Monitoring:
    • Monitor patients post-procedure for adverse reactions, complications, and recovery from sedation or anesthesia.
    • Assess vital signs, oxygenation levels, and consciousness levels during the recovery phase.
    • Provide wound care for biopsy sites or areas that may have been treated during the procedure.
    • Ensure the patient is stable and ready for discharge, providing post-procedure instructions.
  • Patient Education:
    • Educate patients on preparation for future procedures, including bowel preparation for colonoscopies or dietary restrictions for certain tests.
    • Provide information on post-procedure care, including managing discomfort, avoiding certain activities, and understanding when to seek medical attention for complications.
    • Address any questions or concerns patients or family members may have regarding the procedure, results, or next steps in treatment.
  • Infection Control and Safety:
    • Adhere to strict infection control protocols, including sterilization of equipment, proper disposal of contaminated materials, and use of personal protective equipment.
    • Ensure aseptic techniques are maintained during the procedure, including handling endoscopes, biopsy tools, and other medical instruments.
    • Follow hospital and procedural guidelines for cleaning and sterilizing GI equipment between patient uses.
  • Documentation and Reporting:
    • Document all nursing assessments, medications, interventions, and patient responses in the electronic health record (EHR) in a timely and accurate manner.
    • Report any adverse events, complications, or changes in the patient's condition to the physician and the rest of the healthcare team.
    • Complete required documentation for billing, patient history, consent, and other regulatory requirements.
  • Collaboration and Communication:
    • Collaborate with gastroenterologists, endoscopy technologists, anesthesia providers, and other healthcare professionals to ensure optimal patient care.
    • Communicate effectively with patients, their families, and the healthcare team regarding procedures, potential risks, and care plans.
    • Participate in team meetings to discuss patient progress, concerns, and procedural adjustments as needed.
  • Quality Improvement and Continuing Education:
    • Participate in quality improvement initiatives to enhance patient outcomes, safety, and the efficiency of the GI lab procedures.
    • Stay updated on the latest advances in gastrointestinal care, nursing practices, and procedures, including new technologies and techniques in endoscopy.
    • Attend continuing education sessions to maintain professional certifications and stay current with best practices in GI nursing.
