The Joint Advisory Group on Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (JAG) acknowledges that PSIs should be reviewed by endoscopy services and learning shared among staff. It is recognised that more could be done to promote shared learning as outlined by the JAG {\textquoteleft}Improving Safety and Reducing Error in Endoscopy{\textquoteright} strategy. The {\textquoteleft}Case of the month{\textquoteright} series aims to provide a broad selection of cases and subsequent learning that can be shared among services and their workforce. This review focuses on five case vignettes that highlight a variety of PSIs in endoscopy. A structured approach, based on incident analysis methodology, is applied to each case to categorise PSIs and develop learning points. Learning is directed toward the individual, team and healthcare organisation. A selection of methods to disseminate learning at local, regional and national levels are also described.}, issn = {2041-4137}, URL = {https://fg.bmj.com/content/12/7/636}, eprint = {https://fg.bmj.com/content/12/7/636.full.pdf}, journal = {Frontline Gastroenterology} }
