Most people think that stomach trouble is a minor illness, so just take some medicine. When the disease recurs, it becomes more and more serious until other symptoms appear, but at this time, stomach disease has often become the late stage of malignant lesions. Many people postpone gastroscopy for fear. In fact, gastrointestinal tumors can be prevented from worsening and cured as long as they are screened early and the lesions are found early!
With the application of optical fiber technology, electronic technology, ultrasound and other high and new technologies in gastrointestinal endoscopy, the comfort and diagnostic level of examination have also been significantly improved. Painless gastrointestinal endoscopy technique is to use intravenous anesthesia with drugs to make patients receive gastrointestinal endoscopy in sleep. In other words, checking up is like taking a nap. When you wake up and the examination is over, the patient has no feeling.
This not only relieves the pain of patients, but also avoids the mechanical damage caused by their involuntary restlessness, which is helpful for doctors to make more detailed examinations. It has the characteristics of no pain, no fear, no sequelae and safety. It is especially suitable for patients with gastrointestinal diseases who are afraid of examination because of psychological tension.
If you are over 40 years old (family history of digestive tract diseases can be advanced), or have bad living habits (smoking, drinking, irregular diet, liking greasy food, pickling, barbecue, etc. , and often stay up late), it is recommended to do a gastrointestinal mirror to make a clear diagnosis and minimize the risk.
Gastroscopy will cause certain damage to the mucosa of digestive tract. Gastroscopy is a common examination method for stomach diseases, and it is an invasive examination method, so it will have a certain impact. Endoscope needs to be placed through esophagus during gastroscopy, which will inevitably cause certain damage to throat, esophagus and gastric mucosa. Some people will bleed after gastroscopy, but the amount of bleeding is not large, and it will also cause nausea, vomiting and other symptoms because of the stimulation of mucosa during gastroscopy. Some patients can't stand the pain caused by gastroscopy and need painless gastroscopy. In this case, they need anesthesia. Narcotic drugs will have a certain impact on the body, some patients will have adverse reactions or side effects, and it will take some time for metabolism to return to normal.
