Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

CEGAS

Accurate diagnosis for the treatment of gastritis, reflux, and stomach discomfort.

It is a medical procedure that allows the specialist to directly observe the interior of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum using a thin, flexible tube with a high-definition camera.

It is the most effective tool for directly examining the upper digestive tract, allowing timely detection of conditions such as gastritis, ulcers, or reflux with a precision that other examinations cannot achieve.

The study is performed under sedation assisted by professionals, which ensures that the patient remains asleep and calm throughout the entire process, eliminating any sensation of nausea or pain.

An 8-hour fast from solids and liquids is required. Additionally, it is necessary to be accompanied by a responsible adult due to the effects of sedation.
