Painless Gastroenteroscopy

Expert answer: painless gastroenteroscopy has been carried out two years ago, according to the traditional method of gastroenteroscopy, the probe into the stomach and intestines, the examiner inevitably nausea, pain, choking and coughing and other adverse reactions. The painless examination is completed in sleep, the patient woke up unconscious. The patient thought "pain after waking up from anesthesia" is not valid.

The pain is minimal, the gas is released

Now the anesthesia medication is very advanced, after anesthesia examination can wake up in ten minutes, and the colonoscopy does not cause wounds, there is no question of pain without anesthesia. Therefore, the vast majority of patients do not have the problem of pain. This reader's pain is a rare case. It is possible that the atmosphere into the intestine during the operation, causing stomach distension or intestinal cramps.

If the pain of belly distension is unbearable, you can rub some medication to promote intestinal peristalsis, when I let the gas out (farting) to go to the toilet, the pain can be relieved, or you can ask the doctor to play antispasmodic drugs, while observing the condition.

Don't go under anesthesia for an asthma attack

When you go under anesthesia, you are completely unconscious. But hospitals have sophisticated testing equipment that monitors a person's breathing and heart condition. There are also physicians who can observe the condition of the examiner and take immediate emergency measures, such as artificial respiration and oxygenation, if they find that the patient is different, such as a purplish color that represents a drop in oxygen saturation.

In addition, there are no contraindications for painless gastroenteroscopy, and most people can undergo it. Only if the examiner has an acute upper respiratory tract infection, emphysema, bronchitis, is in an asthma attack is not suitable to do. This is because the anesthetics used have an inhibitory effect on respiration. It can be done when the condition is under control.

All other patients can choose painless endoscopy, especially the high mental tension, the fear of non-painless endoscopy has a good diagnosis and treatment results. Because painless examination can reduce the patient due to pain, the patient will not produce the unconscious commotion, thus avoiding the mechanical damage caused.

I hope to solve your problem.
