The burden of digestive disease across Europe: Facts and policies

2019 
Abstract The past decade has witnessed a significant increase in the incidence of GI diseases across Europe. There are clear differences in outcomes for patients in Europe based on geographical and economic differences, and there is a worrying inequality in the provision of healthcare across the continent. Recent demographic studies have highlighted the heavy burden of GI disease across Europe. There is increasing demand for endoscopic procedures which are becoming increasingly more complex and demand further expertise and training. A co-ordinated and cohesive approach to research, specialist training and healthcare funding is required to overcome these inequalities.
