An evaluation was made of the feasibility of an instant upper-gastrointestinal endoscopy clinic for patients referred to hospital for the investigation of dyspepsia. A total of 200 patients underwent endoscopy using a small-diameter endoscope with only topical pharyngeal anaesthesia but no premedication or sedation. The procedure was successful in 187 of the patients. Its acceptability was high for both patients and doctors. The average duration of the hospital visit was 45 minutes. Instant endoscopy with a small-diameter endoscope provides a convenient and fast primary diagnostic service for patients with dyspepsia.
对为消化不良而转诊至医院的患者设立即时上消化道内镜门诊的可行性进行了评估。共有200例患者使用仅咽部局部麻醉但未使用术前用药或镇静剂的小直径内镜接受了内镜检查。该操作在187例患者中取得成功。其对患者和医生的可接受性都很高。患者的平均就诊时间为45分钟。使用小直径内镜进行即时内镜检查可为消化不良患者提供便捷、快速的初步诊断服务。
