Every tenth inhabitant of the planet has stomach problems, and this is only according to official data. Many do not go to the doctor just because they know - they are waiting for fibrogastroscopy.
The procedure is unpleasant, but mandatory, since without it a diagnosis in some cases simply will not be delivered. To date, endoscopic studies are the most reliable, and are conducted under short-term medication sleep.
The concept of sleep gastroscopy
Sleep studies are a procedure performed after intravenous injection of a gentle, gentle anesthesia to the patient.
After awakening in 10-15 minutes the coordination of movements is completely restored, and in an hour you can go home, although on this day doctors do not recommend driving and performing work that requires a quick reaction.
Indications and contraindications
The procedure is carried out according to the indications, if the patient complains of pain or discomfort from the gastrointestinal tract:
- vomit:
- nausea;
- heartburn;
- bitterness in the mouth.
The method allows you to define;
- inflammation of the mucosa;
- erosive-ulcerative lesions of the esophagus and duodenum;Benign or malignant neoplasms.
Under medical sleep, the procedure is carried out not only at the request of the patient, but also according to indications, for example:
- with pronounced emetic reflex;
- with inflammation of the esophagus, when there are problems with swallowing.
For children, the procedure in a dream is not only desirable, but also necessary, as they have such manipulation can cause mental disorders.
Since the procedure under anesthesia is as gentle and painless as possible, there are no specific contraindications to its conduct. Possible complications include bleeding after a biopsy.
Advantages of
Gastroscopy under anesthesia is desirable for both the patient and the doctor. When the patient does not sleep, various reflexes can be activated during manipulation:
- cough;
- emetic.
In addition, a person moves, which prevents the doctor from working - he in such a situation can skip some point of the survey.
Preparing for the
procedure No complicated preparations are required for the procedure. The only necessary condition is an empty stomach. Therefore, for 6-8 hours before the examination it is forbidden to eat. 4 hours before it you can drink water, but not juices, coffee and so on.
In this regard, the best time for examination is early morning. On the eve of the last meal should be no later than 19 hours, and consist of easily digestible products.
Course of examination
During the gastroscopy next to the patient, an anesthesiologist is present who monitors his condition and maintains sedation. He decides which drug to use and in what dosage to use for anesthesia.
After the person falls asleep, lying on his left side, he is inserted into his mouth a special cap with a hole for the passage of a flexible probe.
Using a digital endoscopic complex, a physician can control the device by directing the camera with a light source to different areas. At the same time receiving clear images of the mucosa and gastrointestinal tract in the smallest detail.
The image of the inner surface is transferred to the screen, and a large magnification allows all to consider in detail. Through a separate channel of the device, you can stretch out the special tools necessary for accompanying manipulation( sampling or removal of the polyp).

Reviews
Valentina M. 31 year:
I have chronic gastritis, therefore, with the swallowing of the tube I know very closely. To say that for me the procedure is unpleasant - means not to say anything. Every time I went into the office, like hard labor. But the attending physician prompted the clinic in our city, where they began to conduct FGS in a dream. She did not regret 5000, although she was afraid of anesthesia. But in vain, since I did not even notice how the procedure went. I woke up - it's all over! And there was not even a retardation from anesthesia. I advise everyone.

I went through the procedure a month ago, and I will say it right - I would have gone ten times more, so everything is simple and without problems. The price bites a bit, but it's worth it. As it turned out, the procedure took 3 minutes, and after awakening there were no unpleasant sensations. True, I had to go home by taxi, since I was banned from driving.
