Is painless gastroscope really painless? What is the difference between painless gastroscopy and general examination?

Hello, regarding your situation, I consulted Director Yang of Guangzhou Logistics Hospital for you. Compared with traditional gastrointestinal endoscopy, painless gastrointestinal endoscopy has the advantages of high definition, high resolution, no dead angle, no damage and high diagnostic rate. Painless gastrointestinal endoscopy is safe, short in time and high in diagnostic rate. Painless gastroscope: it can be used for examination and treatment. Through the endoscopic biopsy channel, the endoscopic injection needle is sent into the stomach, and the drug can be injected into the lesion site under direct vision. Such as hardener, anticancer drugs, etc. Sclerosing therapy of esophageal varices has been widely used, and injection of anticancer drugs to treat esophageal cancer has also been reported.

1, no pain: the patient has no discomfort during the examination and treatment. For patients who are nervous and afraid of gastrointestinal endoscopy, painless gastroscopy and painless enteroscopy are your ideal choice.

2. Minimal trauma: Under the painless electronic gastroscope, multiple minimally invasive treatments can be performed for gastrointestinal bleeding, polyps and ulcer stenosis, so that patients can avoid the pain of surgery.

3. Short time: excluding the preparation time before the inspection, it can be completed within a few minutes from the beginning of the inspection.

4. More accurate: Electronic gastrointestinal endoscopy has advantages that can't be replaced by other examination methods at present, especially some minor lesions and even mucosal lesions can be clearly diagnosed. And has an amplification function, thereby further increasing the accuracy of diagnosis.

Although painless gastroscopy has many advantages, there are also some taboos to pay attention to:

First of all, people who are too old, suffering from bradycardia, severe hypertension and serious cardiopulmonary diseases should not do painless gastroscopy;

Secondly, digestive system diseases complicated with gastric retention, liquid reflux is easy to cause suffocation, which is not suitable for painless gastroscopy;

Thirdly, patients with severe snoring and obesity will suffocate during the examination, so painless gastroscopy should be carefully selected; Finally, in order to avoid the influence of narcotic drugs, pregnant women and lactating women should not choose painless endoscopy.

In addition, after painless endoscopy, patients should be fully awake and accompanied by relatives before going home. They are not allowed to drive for 24 hours, and are not allowed to engage in high-risk operations, mechanical operation and calculation, logical analysis, etc.
