Study Notes
Endoscopy Exam Notes
- Endoscopy: A procedure used to view and operate on internal organs and vessels of the body.
- Endoscopy Uses: Investigating unusual symptoms, performing certain types of surgery, removing small tissue samples.
- Endoscopy Types
- Laparoscopy (abdomen or pelvis)
- Hysteroscopy (uterus)
- Cystoscopy (bladder)
- Gastroscopy (upper GI)
- Colonoscopy (colon)
- Sigmoidoscopy
- ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography)
- Bronchoscopy (lungs)
- Laryngoscopy
- Arthroscopy (joints)
- Nasopharyngoscopy
- Otoscopy (ear)
- Indications for Endoscopy: Diagnosing and treating sources of bleeding, polyps, inflammatory bowel diseases, abnormal tissues.
- Endoscopy Advantages: Less invasive than open surgery, descriptive documentation, low morbidity and mortality.
- Endoscopy Disadvantages: Only view surface of the organ, limited area viewed at a time.
Capsule Endoscopy
- Capsule Endoscopy: The latest technique using a small-sized video capsule to examine the digestive tract.
- Capsule Endoscopy Procedure:
- Capsule with camera swallowed.
- Images transmitted as it passes through.
- Sensors are attached to a belt around the waist to record data.
- Images displayed on a computer.
- Capsule Endoscopy Considerations:
- Should eat and drink nothing 1-2 hours before.
- No strenuous activity.
Endoscopy B
- Da Vinci Surgical System: Robot-assisted surgery, improves dexterity, better control, reduces hospital stays, less staff/risk.
- Conditions Typically Treated with Endoscopy: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), reflux esophagitis, esophageal ulcer disease, diseases of the esophagus to jejunum, malignancy.
- Therapeutic Procedures: Hemorrhage, injections, clips removal of foreign bodies, dilation of strictures, stenting.
- Other conditions: Gastroesophageal reflux disease, unexplained bleeding, esophageal blockage.
Endoscopy A
- Investigating Symptoms: Vomiting blood, difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), persistent diarrhea, persistent abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, unexplained vomiting.
Types of Endoscopy (cont'd)
- Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): Combines endoscopy and X-rays to visualize bile and pancreatic ducts.
- Endoscopic Ultrasound: Uses high-frequency sound waves to identify digestive system and lung diseases.
- Marrow and Imaging: Filtered light is used for better visualization of internal organs.
- Chromolendoscopy: Dyes are installed to identify lesions before endoscopy.
Endoscopy C
- Gastroscopy Reliability: Reliable test to identify abnormalities in the upper digestive tract (stomach, duodenum).
- Gastroscopy Limitations: Not foolproof, may not detect very early or subtle conditions (such as early-stage ulcers or cancers).
- Colonoscopy Indications: Constipation, abdominal issues, post-polypectomy surveillance, bleeding per rectum, unexplained anemia, and weight loss.
- Colonoscopy Procedure: Examining the large intestine through the anus.
Endoscopy B (cont'd)
- Surgical Techniques: Insertion of self-expanding metal stents, dilation of strictures, ERCP after procedures (such as Billroth, Roux-en-Y).
- Types of Endoscopy: Upper GI endoscopy, enteroscopy, colonoscopy.
Endoscopy D
- Anal Canal: Very short segment of the gastrointestinal tract from the anal verge to the dentate line.
- Terminal lleum: Part of the small intestine, used for procedures that access the lower digestive tract.
- Enteroscopy: Procedures used to examine the small intestine that is inaccessible by traditional endoscopy.
Endoscopy E
- Therapeutic Bronchoscopy: Insertion of an endotracheal tube for general anesthesia, extension of neck, endobronchial bleeding tamponade, brachytherapy, lung insertion of radioactive material.
- Bronchoscopy Complications: Pneumothorax (collapsed lung), hemorrhage, hypoxemia.
- Bronchoscopy Preparation: Fasting 6-12hrs, no drinks, no smoking previous day.
- Post-procedure: Vital signs, no food/drink for a specific time frame.
Endoscopy F
- Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): Special procedure used to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the bile ducts, gallblader, pancreas and liver. Combine endoscopy and fluoroscopy.
- ERCP Indications: Detect causes of gallbladder or pancreatic duct problems.
Endoscopy G
- Cystoscopy: Examine the inside of the bladder and urethra and used in procedures such as uretero-renoscopy (URS).
- Cystoscopy Indications: Frequent urinary tract infections, blood in the urine (hematuria), frequent and urgent need to urinate, unusual cells in the urine, urinary pain, urinary blockage.
- Cystoscopy Types: Rigid and flexible.
- Ureteroscopic/Ureterosopy (URS): Examination of the upper urinary tract and renal pelvis.
Endoscopy H
- Proctoscopy: Examine the rectum and anal canal with a short, rigid endoscope.
- Proctoscopy Purpose: Detect diseases of the rectum, assess rectal bleeding causes, monitor polyp growth.
- Proctoscopy Complications: Excessive bleeding after exam, difficulty urinating, severe pain.
