Study Notes

Definition and Classification

  • Invasive procedures: medical interventions that involve the insertion of instruments or devices into the body through the skin or a body cavity.
  • Classified into three categories:
    1. Minimally invasive: procedures that use small incisions or natural orifices to access the body, e.g., laparoscopic surgery, endoscopy.
    2. Semi-invasive: procedures that involve a combination of open and closed techniques, e.g., percutaneous nephrolithotomy.
    3. Open invasive: procedures that require a large incision to access the body, e.g., traditional surgical procedures.

Examples of Invasive Procedures

  • Surgical procedures:
    • Laparoscopic surgery
    • Open-heart surgery
    • Neurosurgery
    • Organ transplantation
  • Diagnostic procedures:
    • Endoscopy
    • Colonoscopy
    • Bronchoscopy
    • Biopsy
  • Therapeutic procedures:
    • Angioplasty
    • Stenting
    • Radiofrequency ablation
    • Cryotherapy

Risks and Complications

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Organ damage
  • Adverse reaction to anesthesia
  • Blood clots
  • Scarring
  • Pain

Benefits

  • Improved diagnostic accuracy
  • Effective treatment of various diseases and conditions
  • Reduced recovery time and hospital stay
  • Minimally invasive procedures offer less pain and scarring
  • Improved patient outcomes and quality of life

  • Defined as medical interventions that involve the insertion of instruments or devices into the body through the skin or a body cavity.

Classification of Invasive Procedures
