GI medmal cases concentrate around missed colorectal cancer on screening colonoscopy (quality-indicator failures), colonoscopy perforation with delayed recognition, ERCP pancreatitis without prophylaxis, and polyp surveillance interval errors. USMSTF Quality Indicators for Colonoscopy, ESGE PEP Prophylaxis Guideline, and AGA bleeding management standards define the floors. Cross-exam walks the witness through the documented quality indicators — or their absence.
Try the 2-min Gastroenterology demo → All specialtiesGI cases turn on the procedure note's quality indicators: ADR, cecal intubation, withdrawal time, Boston Bowel Prep Score. The chart documents these or it doesn't. "It was a clean colonoscopy" without engaging the published quality indicators is impeachable. For ERCP cases, rectal NSAID PEP prophylaxis is the ESGE standard for high-risk patients.
CRC found within 5 years of "negative" screening colonoscopy; chart silent on ADR, cecal intubation, withdrawal time.
Post-colonoscopy abdominal pain; imaging not obtained promptly; perforation diagnosed hours later.
High-risk ERCP patient (young female, prior PEP, SOD) without rectal NSAID per ESGE.
Upper GI bleed with hemodynamic instability; EGD not performed within 24 hours per AGA.
Moderate/deep sedation without continuous ETCO2 per ASA monitoring standard; desat event.
Surveillance colonoscopy scheduled too late per USMSTF 2020 intervals; interval cancer.
Biopsies mislabeled or insufficient samples; pathology can't make diagnosis.
Sedation administered by non-anesthesia personnel in setting requiring deep sedation.
Lock the witness into "it was a clean colonoscopy" framing, then juxtapose against the USMSTF/ASGE quality indicators (ADR, withdrawal time, cecal intubation, Boston BPS) that the chart either documents or doesn't.
Why this lands: witness has framed a documentation gap as a clinical conclusion. The published quality indicators exist because "clean colonoscopy" is exactly the kind of subjective claim the field standardized away from.
GI cases turn on the procedure note's documented quality indicators (ADR, withdrawal time, cecal intubation, BBPS). The chart documents these or it doesn't. Generic depo-prep AI doesn't engage the USMSTF or ESGE canons.
