Infection prevention and control is vital throughout the patient journey and this also includes the decontamination processes of endoscopes and accessories. Staff involved in patient care and decontamination processes need training and knowledge to prevent patient and self-contamination.  In addition, advanced endoscopy nursing skills have been established for the treatment of various gastrointestinal diseases.

Since its foundation in 1996, ESGENA has been establishing a close co-operation with ESGE and has co-authored various guidelines, statements and curricula on hygiene, sedation, quality assurance and endoscopy techniques.
