Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy01:29

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

1.9K
An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:

Endoscopic Procedures III: Video Capsule Endoscopy

1.2K
Capsule endoscopy, or wireless or video capsule endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure for examining the entire gastrointestinal tract. Patients swallow a capsule about the size of a vitamin tablet. The capsule is equipped with a transmitter, a battery, an LED light source, and a color video camera to capture images throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This procedure is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, tumors, polyps, ulcers,...

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

5.4K
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Endoscopic Procedures II: Colonoscopy

1.1K
The colon, or large intestine, is the final segment of the digestive system. Its primary functions include absorbing water and vitamins produced by gut bacteria and transforming waste from liquid to solid to form stool. In adults, the large intestine is approximately 5 feet long and consists of four main sections:

Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Endoscopy

    Background:

    • Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a crucial diagnostic tool for gastrointestinal (GI) and non-GI lesions.
    • There is a lack of data regarding EUS experience in Bangladesh.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the initial experience and clinical impact of EUS in Bangladesh.
    • To assess the safety, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness of EUS in the region.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective data collection of 204 EUS procedures from July 2013 to December 2014.
    • Recording patient demographics, referral details, diagnoses, management plans, and procedure indications.
    • Detailed recording of EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) data, including site, passes, and histology.

    Main Results:

    • The most common indications for EUS were pancreatobiliary (80.9%) and esophageal/gastric pathologies.
    • EUS led to changes in diagnosis in 34.4% and management in 45% of cases.
    • Additional investigations were avoided in 57.8% of procedures, highlighting cost-effectiveness.

    Conclusions:

    • EUS is a safe, accurate, and highly useful tool for diagnosing and managing GI disorders in Bangladesh.
    • The initial experience demonstrates a significant clinical impact, improving patient care.
    • This study provides the first report of EUS experience in Bangladesh, establishing its value in the country.
