Our objective is to determine the impact of AI on the adenoma detection rate of Gastroenterology trainees. The secondary aim of this quality improvement study is to determine the impact of AI based endoscopy on the rate of recording of quality improvement metrics versus historical performance in our program.
Fellows will undergo educational session prior to the start of study, describing commonly used metrics for assessing quality of colonoscopy and how to use the artificial intelligence software. Gastroenterology fellows will be consented for the study prior to initiation. The fellows will be randomized on a daily basis to perform colonoscopies in a room. Outcomes will measure the effects of AI in fellows

You may be eligible if
All Gastroenterology fellows at USC performing Endoscopies will be included in the study.
You may not be if
If fellows refuse informed consent they will be excluded.
Procedures performed in the intensive care unit or the operating room will not be counted toward the study metrics as the AI system will only be available in the endoscopy unit.
If procedures are performed only by faculty, in which the fellow is not the primary operator, they will not be used for study metrics.
