Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultra-thin transnasal esophagogastroduodenoscopy(EGD).Methods The patients(n=240)receiving diagnostic EGD were randomly assigned to 3 groups to undergo ultra-thin trails-nasal EGD(group A,n=82),ultra-thin trans-oral EGD(group B,n=79)and conventional trans-oral EGD(group C,n=79).The blood pressure,pulse rate,arterial oxygen saturation,myocardial oxygen consumption were monitored and recorded before and during the procedure,as well as the operation time.All patients completed a questionnaire after the procedure.Results No significant difference was found in drop of arterial oxygen saturation between three groups.Increases in pulse rate,blood pressure,rate-pressure product in group A were significantly lower than those in group B and C(P＜0.05).Patients in group A experienced the lowest VAS scores of discomfort and nausea during the procedure (P＜0.05).But examination time and insertion time were significantly longer in group A than those in group B and C.With the increase in number of cases,the insertion time for group A decreased gradually.Conclusion Ultra-thin trans-nasal EGD is well tolerated and has fewer hemodynamic effects.It is safe and may be the optimal route of intubation with ultra-thin scopes.
