NHS Endoscopy Conference: Beyond the device

The NHS Endoscopy Conference: Beyond the Device will delve into the significant challenges facing NHS Endoscopy services. These include an outdated infrastructure struggling to meet rising demand and contemporary standards. The situation is compounded by a shortage of staff, leading to longer waiting times and overworked personnel.

Additionally, unclear leadership and fragmented oversight impede efforts to streamline services and implement cohesive strategies. There is also an urgent need to enhance connectivity, digitisation, and data sharing to improve patient outcomes, ensure efficient resource utilisation, and facilitate timely, accurate diagnoses and treatments. Addressing these issues is vital for maintaining the quality and accessibility of endoscopy services in the NHS.
