ENDOSCOPY

DESCRIPTION

Endoscopy is a nonsurgical procedure used to examine a person digestive tract. Using an endoscope, a flexible tube with light and camera attached to it is passed into the tract so that the doctor can view the pictures of your digestive tract on a color TV monitor. An endoscopic examination and accurate diagnosis requires the detection of changes in the structure and color of the mucosa.
Endoscopes are minimally invasive and can be inserted into the opening of the body such as the mouth and anus. Alternatively, they can be inserted into small incisions. Modern endoscopy has relatively few risks and it delivers detailed images. Depending on the type of endoscopy, you need to fast for around 12 hours before the procedure.

LENGTH OF SURGERY

An endoscopy procedure takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

TYPE OF ANESTHESIA

For most endoscopic examination, a sedative or local anesthesia is been used. This increases the comfort of the person undergoing the examination. The sedation can be used through an injection into the vein. General anesthesia are used in only very special circumstances.

RISKS

Perforation.
Reaction to sedation.
Infection.
Bleeding.
Pancreatitis.

RECOVERY TIME

Recovery mostly depend on the type of procedure. For an upper endoscopy, you will be observed for some time after the procedure which is usually about an hour to two hours in order to get the sedative wear off. The effect of this examination are more prolonged. The medications you receive during the procedure impairs your judgement, perception, and coordination for the rest of the day. Therefore, you should not work or drive for the rest of the day.
