French Prospective Cohort of Innovative Endoscopic Interventions in Expert Centers

Diagnostic and therapeutic digestive endoscopy has been booming over the last 10 years. Many new techniques in digestive tract or hepato-bilio-pancreatic endoscopy are introduced every year. France is the Western country with the most technical skills in terms of the number of experts relative to the size of its territory, but is lagging far behind in terms of the promotion and reimbursement of these techniques by health insurance funds. France is also experiencing difficulties in centralizing health data from the thousands of endoscopies performed in the country every year. Pooling this data across the country, following the example of certain European and international partners (the Dutch, English and Australians), would make it easier to exploit data from innovative, sometimes rare or confidential digestive endoscopy procedures, and to justify their reimbursement once their usefulness has been confirmed through large-scale descriptive prospective studies associated with national multicenter publications.

The creation of a multi-center French cohort pooling data from innovative endoscopies carried out in France every year would make it possible to produce excellent scientific results and analyze on a large scale the results of our current practi
