For severe illness and physical weakness and difficulty in supporting physical strength after fasting, hypertonic glucose solution should be injected intravenously before the examination.

The preparation for gastroscopy is relatively simple, mainly including the following points: 1. Past history and vital signs, to see if the patient has serious diseases, such as myocardial infarction, angina, more serious cerebrovascular disease, etc., blood pressure should also be measured, and electrocardiogram should be done to assess whether the patient can withstand gastroscopy or gastroscopy. 2. Some hospitals also need to be tested for infectious diseases, such as hepatitis.

Many patients with gastric problems will feel that gastroscopy is a very scary examination method before having a gastroscopy, thinking that it will be painful to do a gastroscopy, and there is some fear in the psychology. So as a gastroenterologist, I often do gastroscopy and colonoscopy for patients and so on, and I myself have personally been in contact with colonoscopy and gastroscopy. So does gastroscopy hurt or not?

Let me tell you. In a word, as long as we cooperate with the doctor 100%, ordinary gastroscopy is actually not so painful.

There are two reasons for the fear of gastroscopy. The first is that they are too nervous before the examination, and many patients will be scared and anxious before the first gastroscopy. Some patients will ask their friends who have had gastroscopy, what is it like?

Actually, it doesn't help much, because everyone feels differently about having a gastroscopy. Just like drinking wine, some people find it fragrant and tastes good. However, if you don't drink alcohol, you will find it bitter and spicy, and it will be difficult to swallow.

Therefore, before doing gastroscopy, we should relax and not imagine the examination process too much and cause fear.

I just don't know how to cooperate with the doctor. Some people will be overly nervous when they are in an unfamiliar environment, and their hands and feet will not obey the call, and the right thing to do is to relax their mind. In general, the doctor will explain some precautions before the examination and tell the patient not to be overly nervous.

However, due to the large number of patients, some doctors may explain too simply. At this time, we should try to adjust ourselves, in the process of doing the examination, try to breathe deeply, do not swallow saliva, try to keep ourselves in a calm state, gastroscopy is actually very simple.

I've had a gastroscopy, it's so uncomfortable, I don't want to have a gastroscopy again in my life, it's a disgusting feeling.

1. Prepare in advance, at least 8 hours before the examination, do not eat, enter water, (generally make an appointment in the hospital in advance to do it on an empty stomach the next morning) food in the stomach is easy to affect the doctor's diagnosis, and easy to promote nausea and vomiting of the examinee. In order to reduce throat discomfort, the medical staff will spray an anesthetic on the patient's throat 3 minutes before the examination.

Hello, gastroscopy is to clearly see the mucous membrane of the digestive tract, and it is necessary to make the area to be examined clean, that is, there is no food and no blood clot remaining. If the gastroscopy is done in the morning, no food or drink will be avoided and smoking will be prohibited after 8 p.m. on the day before the examination. If you have a gastroscopy in the afternoon, you can drink some sugar water before 8 o'clock in the morning of the same day, but you can't eat anything else, and you can't eat at noon.

In the case of pyloric obstruction. Gastric lavage must be performed the night before the examination to thoroughly wash the stomach contents until the flushed reflux fluid is clear.

The main thing to pay attention to when doing gastroscopy is to eat, and you should not eat for seven or eight hours before the examination. If there is no tissue biopsy after the examination, you can generally drink water for one hour, eat semi-liquid food for two hours, and cannot use hot water, and there will be small mucosal vascular damage during gastroscopy. Drink water and eat too early.

This can increase bleeding. It is recommended to drink water after one hour, and the warm water should not be too warm. If a tissue biopsy is taken, this time is extended to six to eight hours.

The first is fasting. This is basic medical knowledge. Doctors usually ask patients to fast for six hours or more and fast for four hours or more.

Gastroscopy mainly requires fasting, can not drink water and eat, generally needs to fast for 12 hours, you can choose ** gastroscopy and ordinary stomach.

Precautions before gastroscopy.

1. Pay attention to fasting.

You can't eat for 8 to 10 hours before gastroscopy, and you shouldn't take water for 4 hours. Generally, everyone goes to the hospital in the morning for a gastroscopy, so they should stop eating after dinner the day before and go for a gastroscopy without breakfast the next day.

2. Avoid smoking.

Smoking is harmful to health, everyone should pay attention not to smoke on the day of gastroscopy, smoking is not only easy to cause cough, but also easy to promote the secretion of gastric acid, causing interference to gastroscopy.

3. Consult a doctor.

There are also some necessary examinations before gastroscopy, such as blood pressure measurement, blood routine, infectious disease examination, and the elderly may also have to do an electrocardiogram, which may vary from hospital to hospital. It is best to ask your doctor before having a gastroscopy.

4. Whether to make an appointment.

Some hospitals are busy, and gastroscopy needs to be booked in advance, so it is best to ask before you plan to do gastroscopy to see if your local hospital gastroscopy needs to make an appointment, so as not to cause unnecessary waste of time.

Precautions after gastroscopy.

You can only eat two hours after eating and drinking, and it is best to use some liquid food and semi-liquid food on the same day, such as porridge and the like, and the diet can return to normal the next day.

Whether it is uncomfortable or not. If you feel unwell after gastroscopy, you need to raise it in time so that you can check it in time. On the one hand, you can feel whether there is great discomfort in the stomach, and on the other hand, you can observe whether there is black stool in the stool.

Check the results. The gastroscopy report can be obtained after the gastroscopy, but if you still have a pathological examination, you generally need to take the pathology examination report after a few days, be careful not to omit it. If you are unsure, you can ask your doctor.

Try to relax and avoid being overly nervous. In general, gastroscopy is a less painful examination and the doctor can directly see the condition of the organs being examined, which is better than barium x-ray. It can intuitively find the lesion, preliminarily judge the nature of the lesion, and if necessary, take a small sample at the lesion site, do pathological examination, and see the condition of the diseased cells under the microscope.

Gastroscopy is a medical examination method for gastric discomfort symptoms, which can smoothly and clearly observe the condition of the stomach, esophagus and duodenum through gastroscopy, and its diagnosis and safety are extremely high. It can be examined for some unexplained diseases, such as indigestion, loss of appetite, anemia, weight loss, etc., and find out where it is. So what do we need to pay attention to before the gastroscopy so that our gastroscopy can go smoothly.

1. Fasting for more than six hours. If you check in the morning of the same day, you will not be allowed to eat or drink after 12 p.m. the night before, and you will not be allowed to eat breakfast in the morning of the same day.

2. Regulate your emotions, try to minimize tension, and reduce gastric peristalsis and secretion. Although there is a painful feeling during gastroscopy, it is a very painful test, and the doctor can judge the condition based on the examination organs seen.

3. It is strictly forbidden to smoke, for some patients who have a relatively large smoking addiction and want to smoke all the time, it is best not to smoke three days before gastroscopy, because smoking will make gastric acid secretion excessive, affect the results of the examination and avoid the pain caused by smoking and coughing during gastroscopy, especially for pregnant women, can not smoke before pregnant women do gastroscopy, so as not to be affected differently.

Fourth, cooperate with the doctor, do not need to worry too much, and have a good attitude.
