    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Medical Imaging

    Context:

    • Emergency endoscopy utilizes advanced instrumentation for rapid diagnosis.
    • Upper gastrointestinal bleeding presents diagnostic challenges requiring timely intervention.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and advantages of emergency endoscopy for upper intestinal tract conditions.
    • To demonstrate the improved diagnostic gain using instruments with prograde optics.

    Summary:

    • Emergency endoscopy proved highly effective in diagnosing upper gastrointestinal bleeding, with ulcerous diseases of the stomach and duodenum as the most frequent causes.
    • The study highlights the significant advantage of identifying multiple findings (20%) during emergency endoscopy.
    • While upper endoscopy is effective, coloscopic emergency endoscopy is noted as more challenging.
