Topic Overview

Survey of pediatric surgeons reveals gap between guideline agreement and practice for esophageal atresia follow-up. While 75% support surveillance guidelines and 80% endorse routine endoscopy, only 37% schedule structured visits and 36% perform asymptomatic endoscopic surveillance, highlighting weak adherence despite consensus.

Key Takeaways

  • 75% of pediatric surgeons agree with current esophageal atresia follow-up guidelines, but adherence remains poor.
  • Only 37% of surgeons have structured post-discharge visit schedules for EA patients despite guideline recommendations.
  • 80% agree surveillance endoscopy is important, yet only 36% perform routine endoscopy in asymptomatic EA patients.
  • Significant gap exists between guideline acceptance and clinical implementation in EA long-term management.
  • Standardized follow-up protocols for EA repair are needed to improve consistency in postoperative surveillance.
