Popis: Gastrointestinal endoscopic (GIE) procedures present a known source of risk for COVID-19 transmission from patients to healthcare workers (GIE-HCW). Despite a growing body of clinical data including overall HCW transmission risk, no reports currently exist describing the risk or predictors of GIE-HCW infection in the GIE setting. Our international multicenter study aimed to describe outcomes and modifying factors in a cohort of GIE-HCWs matched to specific COVID-19 patient endoscopic exposures.
