Abstract
Good patient management already starts in advance with careful evaluation of the patient's history and condition with all comorbidities and strict indication of the endoscopic procedure, either for endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). This is necessary to avoid complications of these potentially risky endoscopic interventions. Another important requirement before endoscopy is informed written consent of the patient. During the endoscopic procedure, excellent patient management includes cautious sedation, simultaneous monitoring, radiation protection, an experienced endoscopy team considering prophylaxis and management of potential complications. Only by considering all these aspects a successful procedure and full patient satisfaction will be achieved.
