A prospective, multicenter, clinical study of duodenoscope contamination after reprocessing.

Objective: Several clinical procedures utilize duodenoscopes, which are processed for reuse after the procedures are completed. However, infection outbreaks due to improper duodenoscope processing occur frequently. To address this, we aimed to assess the contamination rates of duodenoscopes after reprocessing in nonoutbreak settings.

Registered dietitians' coding practices and patterns of code use.

Coding, coverage, and reimbursement are vital to the clinical segment of our profession. The objective of this study was to assess understanding and use of the medical nutrition therapy (MNT) procedure codes. Its design was a targeted, cross-sectional, Internet survey.
