Gastroscopy;<\/strong> It is an examination method that allows the upper part of the digestive system (esophagus, stomach, upper part of the small intestine) to be viewed with the help of a flexible tube with a small camera at the end (endoscopy instrument).<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Why is it used?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Gastroscopy is used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the esophagus, stomach, and the beginning of the small intestine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Testing the causes of symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, difficulty swallowing and gastrointestinal bleeding, diseases such as indigestion, anemia, bleeding, inflammation, diarrhea and cancers of the digestive system, biopsy (collecting tissue samples),<\/span><\/p>\n

can be made to receive.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

How Should the Preparation for Gastroscopy Be?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Before gastroscopy, the stomach should be empty. For this purpose, it is necessary to stop eating and drinking for six to eight hours before the procedure. During the procedure, it may be necessary to stop taking blood thinners that increase the risk of bleeding (such as aspirin, coumadin, xarelto, eliquise, plavix, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Implementation<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n
    \n \t
  • Lying on back or side.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • Devices are attached to the body to monitor respiration, blood pressure and heart rate.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • Spray is sprayed into the throat to reduce the gag reflex.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • Anesthesia or similar drugs are given to relieve the discomfort and discomfort that may occur during the procedure.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • The endoscopy instrument is inserted through the mouth.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • The application takes 5-20 minutes depending on the situation.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • In the following hours, the anesthesia loses its effect, the monitors are disconnected, and the patient can go home after a short rest period.<\/span><\/li>\n \t
  • Patients who are given anesthesia or similar drugs should stay away from activities that require attention, such as driving a car after the procedure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Complications of Gastroscopy<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

    The risks listed below after diagnostic procedures are at very low rates, but may occur if therapeutic procedures will be used during the procedure. These complications are seen less than 1 in 1000.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

      \n \t
    • Bleeding, Infection, Perforation in the gastrointestinal tract, fire, Chest pain, Shortness of breath, Black or very dark stools, Difficulty in swallowing, Stomach ache, Bloating, Vomiting<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      What Should Be Done Before Gastroscopy?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

      In fact, there are not very important things to do before gastroscopy. Before gastroscopy, about 8 hours of fasting is sufficient for us.<\/span><\/p>\n

      If the patient is going to undergo gastroscopy as the first case in the morning, we recommend that he not eat or drink anything after 22:00 at night. However, the first thing that is important here is if the patient has any other disease, uses a blood thinner, if something is to be treated during the procedure, for example, if a polyp is to be removed, if an early stage tumor, which we call mucosectomy, is to be removed from this patient, blood thinners, aspirin, blood transfusions under the skin are in question. blood thinners, which we call coumadin, must be discontinued 3-5 days in advance, according to the medicine, in consultation with the doctor.<\/span><\/p>\n

      And the accompanying serious ailments must be shared with the patient who will perform the procedure before the procedure. Before we start the procedure, we apply the patient not only to do this procedure, but also to talk about other accompanying problems.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

      How is Gastroscopy Performed?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

      Gastroscopy procedure is not a very fearful procedure as is believed among the people. It can be done in two ways. It is done by putting a patient to sleep. It can also be done without being put to sleep according to the patient’s request or according to the physician’s preference. However, nowadays, we apply the procedures under the effect of short-term anesthesia, called sedation, since anesthetic drugs provide quite comfort. Patients recover completely half an hour after the procedure and can continue their daily activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Before the gastroscopy procedure, the technician or nurse friend or anesthesiologist in the team that will perform the procedure opens an vascular access to the patient and after the vascular access is established, the patient is monitored after the patient is placed on the table you see in the left side position.<\/span><\/p>\n

      In other words, there is a mechanism that will control the patient’s blood pressure, heartbeat, and oxygen status in the body when needles are given to relieve the patient during the procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

      Which Organs Are Detected by Gastroscopic Examination?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

      The gastroscopy device is a lighted device with a small micro-camera on the end that develops as technology develops, flexible thin and easy to swallow. It is purely diagnostic, much thinner than the bite we swallow, and can certainly be done over and over again. It does not have any irritating effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Gastroscopy uses white light and does not contain radiation. she’s worried. Gastroscopy and radiation have nothing to do with it.<\/span><\/p>\n

      During the gastroscopic examination, we usually examine the esophagus, stomach and duodenum and try to detect existing diseases in these regions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
