Why Gastroscopy is Performed

Gastroscopy serves as a vital tool in diagnosing various gastrointestinal conditions and diseases. Some of the key reasons why it is performed include:

Detection of Gastrointestinal Disorders: Gastroscopy aids in identifying and evaluating conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, celiac disease, swallowing difficulties, and unexplained abdominal pain

Diagnostic Biopsies: During the procedure, tissue samples or biopsies can be obtained for further analysis, allowing for the detection of abnormalities such as inflammation, infection, or malignancies.

Assessment of Treatment Effectiveness : Gastroscopy may also be performed to monitor the effectiveness of ongoing treatments or interventions for gastrointestinal disorders.

Procedure

During a gastroscopy procedure

Preparation: Patients are typically instructed to refrain from eating or drinking for a specified period before the procedure to ensure a clear view of the digestive tract.

Sedation: Sedation or anesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort and relaxation throughout the procedure.

Insertion of Endoscope: The lubricated endoscope is carefully inserted through the mouth and guided down the throat into the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.

Visualization and Examination: The endoscope transmits images of the digestive tract to a monitor, allowing the gastroenterologist to visually inspect the lining of the organs for any abnormalities.

Biopsy:If necessary, the gastroenterologist may take tissue samples or biopsies for further analysis.

Risks Associated with Gastroscopy

Although gastroscopy is considered a safe procedure, there are some potential risks and complications, albeit rare, including:

Perforation:The risk of perforation or puncturing of the digestive tract lining.

Bleeding:Minimal risk of bleeding, particularly if biopsies are taken during the procedure

Reaction to Sedation:Some individuals may experience adverse reactions to the sedative medications administered during the procedure.

Results After Gastroscopy

Following a gastroscopy procedure:

Diagnosis:The results of the gastroscopy provide valuable information for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders, enabling the development of tailored treatment plans.

Treatment Recommendations: Based on the findings, the gastroenterologist may recommend appropriate treatment options, which may include medication, lifestyle modifications, or further interventions.

Monitoring:For individuals with chronic gastrointestinal conditions, gastroscopy may be repeated periodically to monitor disease progression and treatment effectiveness.
