Performing esophagogastroduodenoscopy before colonoscopy in same-day bidirectional endoscopy reduces sedation needs and shortens recovery time. This sequence optimizes patient comfort and procedural efficiency.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopic Procedures

Background:

  • Same-day bidirectional endoscopy (BDE) is common, but optimal procedural sequencing under moderate sedation is unclear.
  • Investigating sequence impact on sedation, patient discomfort, and colonoscopy performance is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the optimal sequence for same-day BDE under moderate conscious sedation.
  • To compare sedation doses, patient discomfort, and colonoscopy outcomes between two sequences.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective randomized controlled study involving 120 patients undergoing BDE.
  • Patients were assigned to either colonoscopy followed by EGD or EGD followed by colonoscopy.
  • Sedation doses and patient/endoscopist questionnaires assessed discomfort.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in demographics, bowel prep, or colonoscopy performance metrics were observed.
  • The EGD-colonoscopy sequence required significantly lower doses of fentanyl and midazolam.
  • The EGD-colonoscopy sequence resulted in significantly shorter recovery times.

Conclusions:

  • Esophagogastroduodenoscopy followed by colonoscopy is the preferred sequence for same-day BDE.
  • This sequence reduces overall sedation requirements and accelerates patient recovery.
  • Optimizing BDE sequence enhances procedural efficiency and patient experience.
