Validation of the Global Polypectomy Assessment Tool (GPAT)

Colorectal polypectomy is offten incompletely performed with high variability between endoscopists, resulting in interval cancer or repeated procedures. Current available scoring systems for polypectomy technique are lacking in different areas so the investigators developed the Global Polypectomy Assessment Tool (GPAT) which is an online video-based assessment tool for any colorectal polypectomy.
The goal of the study is to assess the validity of GPAT through demonstrating the inter-rater agreement (Fleiss Kappa (κ)). GPAT has 20 items, contains evidence-based statements to aid interpretation, calculates an overall quality score and a complexity score.
