Key clinical point: The proximal serrated polyp (PSP) detection rate (DR) of an endoscopist is inversely associated with the incidence of interval post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer (CRC) and should be universally adopted as a separate quality indicator alongside adenoma DR (ADR) to accelerate CRC prevention.

Major finding: With each percentage point increase in PSP DR, the adjusted interval post-colonoscopy CRC rate reduced by 7% (adjusted hazard ratio 0.93; P < .0001).

Study details: This was a population-based study including patients aged 55-76 years with a positive fecal immunochemical test who underwent a colonoscopy; the data of 277,555 colonoscopies were included in the PSP DR calculations.

Disclosures: The study did not receive any funding. A few authors declared serving as speakers or advisory board members or receiving consulting fees or research grants from various sources.
