Gastroscopy can be done in the afternoon.
The gastroscopy can be done at a time that suits your situation. Whether it is in the morning or in the afternoon, this test can be performed without much effect on the results.
Usually gastroscopy requires fasting, and you should fast for 6 to 8 hours before the gastroscopy. You cannot eat or drink on the morning of the gastroscopy, and you cannot drink a lot of water 2 hours before anesthesia. Therefore, patients who choose to do gastroscopy in the afternoon should also fast at noon, and if symptoms of hypoglycemia appear, you can follow the doctor’s instructions such as intravenous glucose.
Therefore, gastroscopy can theoretically be performed in the afternoon, and the specific time can be adjusted according to the patient’s own arrangements and adjustments.
