Is a painless gastroscopy painful? As the name implies!
At present, with the increasing improvement of people’s living standard, the painless state of hospital diagnosis and treatment operation is getting more and more attention and concern. Painless gastroscopy is the appropriate application of sedation during the examination, so that the patient can complete the examination or treatment in a state of wakeful sedation or light sleep. Since the patient is comfortable and painless during painless gastroscopy, it only takes a few minutes and the patient is awake immediately after doing the examination, so it is popular among patients. Some people worry about the side effects of anesthesia, which is completely unnecessary. This technology has been carried out in western countries for many years, and patients in western countries no longer have routine gastroscopy and colonoscopy, all of them are painless gastroscopy. Wang Yaojun, Department of Gastroenterology, General Hospital of Jinan Military Region Since patients have no discomfort and no memory of the examination process, many patients ask the doctor after the examination, “How can you let me go before you give me an examination? The doctor said, “Why did you let me go before you examined me?”. Some patients also said, “In the past, general gastroscopy was very painful, but I did not expect painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy to be so comfortable, so I will not be afraid of future re-examinations.” ……
Some hospitals in the market (mostly private hospitals or privately contracted departments) offer ultrasound examination of the gastrointestinal tract, which is actually unscientific. Gastroscopy is the gold standard for the examination of gastrointestinal diseases. Only gastroscopy can guarantee the quality of the examination and achieve no misdiagnosis and early detection of tumors.
