Results: A total of 66 institutions provided valid answers, which revealed the following statistics. As a component of perioperative management of EGD, “time out” was introduced in 61% of the institutions. The answers provided for each item of the questionnaire varied among institutions. More than 60% of the institutions adopted patient names, examination contents, anti-thrombotic drugs, known allergies, and underlying diseases. In addition, “discharge criteria” was introduced in 65% of the institutions. Trends in the assessment of “discharge criteria” showed that the adoption of “institution-based criteria” (44%) and “anesthesia recovery score” (39%) created by the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Technicians Society were followed by majority of the institutions.
