Risks of gastroscopy, contraindications to gastroscopy

Hello! It depends on whether you have a gastroscopy or a conventional gastroscopy.

Diseases of the esophagus, stomach, duodenum and other organs need to be diagnosed through gastrointestinal endoscopy. However, routine gastrointestinal endoscopy will cause patients to vomit repeatedly, which is not easy to accept. **The advent of gastroscopy has greatly reduced the pain of patients.

However, gastroscopy is not suitable for everyone, such as severe lung disease, respiratory diseases, heart dysfunction, hypertension, acute gastrointestinal bleeding, gastrointestinal infarction, etc., are not suitable for gastroscopy. **Gastroscopy is mainly used to reduce the pain of intubation by anesthesia of the patient. However, when the body is paralyzed, the nervous system and cardiopulmonary system will also slow down one after another, and if you suffer from the above diseases, your life may be in danger during the operation.

Therefore, before gastroscopy, patients should provide their health status or original medical history to the doctor, and cooperate with the doctor to do a routine examination before surgery. **The risks associated with gastroscopy are much greater than those associated with conventional gastroscopy.

However, the benefits of endoscopy for diagnosis are also obvious, and this will be the trend of gastrointestinal endoscopy in the future. Because the risks in anesthesia surgery are not possible, the vital indication monitoring during surgery is particularly important, which requires a series of formal detection and rescue instruments. It is necessary to choose a regular hospital for ** gastroscopy.

Gastroscopy under general anesthesia is rarely performed in patients, but some patients will also have a certain amount of ***, for example, patients who have eaten indigestible food before surgery due to insufficient time to fast water. During general anesthesia, patients may experience a risk of nausea and vomiting and choking.

Therefore, before performing general anesthesia, the anesthesiologist should routinely conduct a preoperative visit to the patient, explain some matters that the patient needs to pay attention to before the operation, and the time of fasting water.

At the same time, it is necessary to review the patient's various laboratory tests and ask about the patient's allergy history to ensure the safety of the patient during the gastroscopy under general anesthesia. It is relatively comfortable to perform gastroscopy under general anesthesia, and the patient is in a sleeping state during the whole examination, and the anesthetic is stopped after the operation, and the patient will slowly wake up in about 10 minutes.

Gastroscopy is a process in which the mucosa of the esophagus, stomach, duodenal bulb and even the descending part can be observed sequentially and clearly through gastroscopy, and the pathological and cytological examination of the living body can be performed. Gastroscopy is reliable and safe. So what are the contraindications to gastroscopy?

Below I will answer the question of what are the contraindications to gastroscopy.

Hello, I read the information, I also have non-atrophic gastritis, it's really not good, I did 3 gastroscopies last year, and now esophageal reflux has a feeling of tightness, see you have the same internal formula, may I ask where you looked, what medicine did the doctor prescribe for you, I hope to get your help, thank you.

Capsule gastroscopy will not be better. **Is gastroscopy just adding anesthetic? Frequent stomach pain. I was afraid of gastroscopy. I'm afraid of what you said about intubation or something. I did it once 10 years ago. At that time, it was said that there was too much spicy food. I'm scared now.

I have been suffering from chronic gastritis for three years, every time I do a gastroscopy I am uncomfortable to death, I took the medicine of the provincial hospital ** gastritis all over again, and then went to the hospital of traditional Chinese medicine to see a doctor, the first time I ate it was useless, the second time I ate two meals and it worked, and it didn't hurt after eating. Later, as long as I had stomach problems, I would go to the Chinese medicine hospital to see a doctor and prescribe medicine.

Three days ago, I almost died on the operating table after a gastroscopy at the Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. No heartbeat! Later, the doctor was relieved of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and compression. Until now, I still have chest and back pain, and I can't sleep!

Most hospitals have a tube, gastroscopy in the morning and colonoscopy in the afternoon, and the picture is made up by their own brain, but most hospitals will disinfect after each time, and the probability of cross-infection is very low!

I did three ** gastroscopies! The first is acid reflux esophagitis, and the second is a follow-up! The third is superficial gastritis stage III, and I feel fine every time! Didn't feel anything uncomfortable!

People over 40 years old can be screened for many early gastric cancers and stomach diseases by doing gastroscopy regularly, and there is no harm in it, and it is best to do it once every two years.

I was stabbed in the throat after doing a gastroscopy, and I suspected that the poison was not good, and my throat was always inflamed after the time, and there were tonsil stones, which had been five years, and it was not good to be old and intermittent.

The biggest danger is the shared use of intubation. If the disinfection is not good, and you encounter the first few stomach cancer patients, you are terrible to think about. The second is mechanical trauma to the esophagus.

I also had a gastroscopy, it was gastritis, and the doctor couldn't diagnose it well, so I diagnosed it myself. The stomach doesn't break down in a day or two, it's hard.

Grandma's own laryngitis is nauseous to death from gastroscopy, and her throat is bleeding, so it is really uncomfortable to not be able to do this kind of gastroscopy anymore.

My stomach has always been uncomfortable, and I was afraid of having a gastroscopy, so I finally mustered up the courage to do one last week, and I had an ordinary gastroscopy for chamethysis and never wanted to do it a second time. Everyone really really has to take care of their stomachs, stomach problems are too uncomfortable.

My mother did an ordinary gastroscopy, drank anesthesia and went into the gastroscopy room, and the doctor was there to pick up **, and said that it took a long time to hang **. Then the anesthetic was too strong, and the tube was hard intubated. The old man didn't understand the first time he did gastroscopy, but he could imagine how painful it was.

It was a long time before my mother said this, and if she had told us at the time, she would not have spared the unscrupulous doctor.

I did it once, and it was chronic superficial gastritis, and there were stomach polyps, and I cut it out when I did a gastroscopy, and I said it was benign, and I always had stomach bloating and hiccups.

I don't do gastroscopy anymore in this generation, it's just gastritis. But after doing it, I often choked on drinking water. Alas. Regret dying.

I did it twice in two months, the first time I said that the ulcer, I took medicine, and after a month, I rechecked, it was even more terrible, the ulcer was much better, but the good esophagus was red and swollen, isn't this the gastroscopy that hurt the esophagus? After taking medicine for another month, I didn't have a follow-up ......I don't know if it's all okay now? It feels like it's okay! Ha ha.

Gastroscopy is a common examination method for digestive tract diseases, and it is also the most advanced technology for examining the stomach. There is no harm to the body in doing gastroscopy itself, mainly in the process of doing gastroscopy, there will be some nausea symptoms, and the symptoms will slowly reduce after the gastroscopy, and it will not cause harm to the stomach itself. If you have an upset stomach for a long time and go back and forth, you should go to the hospital for gastroscopy for further diagnosis and understand the condition as soon as possible.

The doctor asked him to go for a gastroscopy when he had a stomachache, he couldn't speak while biting the tube, silently shed tears, detected chronic gastritis and a slight gastric ulcer, prescribed medicine, and survived for more than a month.

Gastroscopy will definitely hurt the stomach, and it will be more uncomfortable, the machine will definitely be uncomfortable in your stomach, and it will hurt the stomach, unless necessary, or generally do not do gastroscopy easily.

1. In fact, doing gastroscopy is not as painful as people think, it will be a little uncomfortable, I feel very nauseous, like I am going to vomit, but it will not produce greater pain, and the examination will usually be completed relatively quickly.

2. Usually before gastroscopy, the patient will be given local anesthesia, therefore, there will be no pain during intubation, and the patient should do swallowing to cooperate, so that the entry of the tube is smoother.

3. After the tube is inserted, it will be examined, at this time the doctor will move the tube, which will have the feeling of wanting to vomit, you can do deep breathing to reduce the feeling of discomfort, and follow the doctor's instructions to reduce the uncomfortable feeling.

4. After the examination, the anesthesia will disappear quickly, and the patient will feel uncomfortable in the throat and may have pain, which can be relieved by taking some related drugs.

Gastroscopy is not painful compared to some examination items, and some people may be more sensitive, so the pain is aggravated. However, there is now ** gastroscopy, which is more suitable for sensitive people.

Most people shy away when they hear about gastroscopy. In fact, whether it is for the diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal diseases or health examinations, gastroscopy is very important. The life of Malaysians is becoming increasingly stressful, and the number of people suffering from gastrointestinal diseases and stomach cancer is also increasing.

Therefore, gastroscopy is also worthy of further understanding by the public.

If you understand the inspection process and have prepared for it beforehand and after the event, you will no longer be afraid.

Preparation should not be eaten at least 8 hours before the examination, as food in the stomach can easily affect the doctor's diagnosis and easily promote nausea and vomiting in the subject. In order to reduce throat discomfort, the medical staff will spray an anesthetic or take some topical anesthetic on the person's throat 3 minutes before the examination.

During the examination, first change into loose clothing, lie on your left side, and bend your legs slightly. When the doctor inserts the gastroscope through the plastic device contained in the examinee's mouth, he should relax the whole body and swallow slightly, so that the gastroscope can pass through the throat and enter the esophagus. There will be pain and vomiting for a few seconds when passing through the throat, which is the more uncomfortable time during gastroscopy.

When the doctor is making a diagnosis, do not swallow, but inhale through the nose and exhale slowly through the mouth so that the examination can be completed smoothly. Some people feel bloated and nauseous as air travels through the tube into their stomach. If you feel pain or discomfort, make a gesture to your health care provider and don't grab the tube or make a sound.

After-the-fact treatment: Do not eat within 1 to 2 hours after the examination, and if the throat does not feel uncomfortable, drink water first; If there is no choking, you can eat soft food first to avoid bleeding from the esophagus or stomach caused by coarse food. Some people have a brief sore throat or a foreign body sensation that usually recovers in 1 to 2 days.

If you don't eat or drink, rest well, and don't have too much psychological burden.
