Traditional endoscopy has long been a frightening examination and many people refuse to take endoscopy examination for this reason. The improvement of medical service quality allows the department to offer painless endoscopy examination under anesthesia.

Under the care by the anesthesiologist and anesthesia nurses, you may take gastroscopy or colonoscopy without any pain, which not only substantially reduces your fear but also makes the examination of colonoscopy easier and safer. The examination will not need to be interrupted due to the excruciating pain.

For safety purpose, all types of anesthesia come with certain risks. In the example of intravenous anesthetics, the probability of clinically meaningful complication is less than 0.1 % but all patients requiring anesthesia will be assessed by professional anesthesiologist before administering anesthetics to assure safety.

The average physicians need to spend four years in special anesthesia training before becoming the special anesthesiologist. The anesthesia nurses assist the anesthesiologists under the instructions of anesthesiologists. The anesthesiologists and anesthesia nurses will do their best to maintain your optimal physiological conditions during the surgery in addition to possibly reduce the side effects likely to occur from the surgical anesthesia.
