Is Tangshan the best hospital for gastroscopy?

1. Try to relax and avoid being too nervous. Patients can choose ordinary electronic gastroscope and painless electronic gastroscope according to the situation.

2. If barium meal examination has been done, it is difficult to make gastroscopy diagnosis because barium meal may adhere to gastrointestinal mucosa, especially the ulcer lesion, so it is necessary to do gastroscopy 3 days after barium meal examination.

3. Patients with pyloric obstruction should fast for 2-3 days, and fully lavage their stomachs when necessary.

4. Patients who take anticoagulant drugs need to stop taking drugs for one week before they can do gastroscopy.

5. Fasting for at least 6 hours before the examination, drinking water after dinner the day before, and eating breakfast in the morning of the examination.

6. Laboratory tests such as viral hepatitis indicators need to be done before the examination to avoid cross-infection.

7. Patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease, arrhythmia and over 60 years old have ECG examination results.

8. After entering the examination room, according to the doctor's advice, untie the neckline and belt, remove the dentures and glasses, and take the left lateral position.

9. If you have had other examinations, such as barium meal examination of gastrointestinal tract, abdominal ct, previous gastroscopy report, etc., you should give them to your doctor for reference.

Matters needing attention in inspection

Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth during the examination; If saliva comes out, don't swallow it to avoid choking. After entering the mirror, don't rotate your body and head to avoid damaging the mirror and internal organs. There will definitely be uncomfortable feelings, such as nausea, bloating, abdominal cramps, etc., which should be properly tolerated. If it is really unbearable, you can signal to the performer (doctor or nurse) so as to take necessary measures.

Matters needing attention after inspection

1. Spit after checking. Because some air was injected during the examination, although it was sucked out when the mirror was removed, some people still have obvious abdominal distension and more belching, which is normal.

2. Due to pharyngeal anesthesia, there will be foreign body sensation in the pharynx after examination. Don't cough violently.

3. Because the anesthetic effect has not disappeared, avoid eating too early and drink water 1 hour after examination. If pathological examination is carried out (the doctor will inform you), semi-liquid or soft and rotten food should be cooled for one day after 2 hours of examination to avoid rough food rubbing the gastric mucosal wound and causing bleeding.

4. You may feel throat discomfort or pain within 1 ~ 4 days after the examination, but you can work as usual.
