Painless gastroscope is based on ordinary gastroscope, combined with propofol, fentanyl and lidocaine for intravenous injection.
Intravenous fentanyl and propofol have sedative and analgesic effects, and have the advantages of quick onset, quick recovery, short half-life, strong controllability and no accumulation in the body. During gastroscopy, patients will soon fall into snoring and sleep state, and the cricopharyngeal muscles will relax, which is helpful for the popularization of gastroscope.
The whole process of painless gastroscopy only takes 2 to 3 minutes. After examination and treatment, the average patient only needs to rest for about 5 to 10 minutes before going home.
Extended data:
In general gastroscopy, most patients will feel nausea, vomiting and pain, often accompanied by fear, anxiety and panic, so many patients often refuse to check, delaying the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
Before the general gastroscopy, the patients undergoing gastroscopy will be given local anesthesia such as esophagus or throat, and then breathing and other operations will be carried out under the guidance of doctors. Most patients with discomfort are still acceptable.
If you really resist ordinary gastroscope, you can choose painless gastroscope, but the detection rate of painless gastroscope is not as high as that of ordinary gastroscope, so at this time you will give the patient an appropriate amount of antispasmodic drugs, such as atropine, so that you can see the stomach more clearly.
