It is a usual procedure that,<br> in this case,<br> surprisingly culminated in cardiac arrest,<br> as confirmed by their relatives.\n\u00a0\nGastroenterologist and endoscopist Pablo Cura (MP 115.256) explained to Infobae that an endoscopy \"is a minimally invasive medical study performed in all cases under general anesthesia.\"\n\n\"The type of anesthesia that is used is called neuroleptoanalgesia,<br> which is a minor anesthetic,<br> it is not the same as that used in surgery,<br>\" said the member of the Department of Abdominal Surgery and Proctology of the Institute of Oncology Angel H. Roffo. The risk of life in a diagnostic procedure has purely to do with the anesthetic risk \".\n\nAnd after ensuring that \"what is known is that the woman was hospitalized with acute epigastric pain,<br>\" Cura stressed that \"it is key that a good diagnosis has been made on admission.\"\n\n\"By means of endoscopy,<br> other therapeutic procedures can be performed,<br> in which,<br> for example,<br> biopsies are taken,<br> but when the study is only for diagnostic purposes there is no risk of complications,<br>\" Cura insisted. \"And when I say none,<br> it's zero,<br>\" he emphasized.\n\n\"It is a simple procedure; the risk is always anesthetic and the type of anesthesia depends on the doctor who is doing it,<br> \"he concluded.\n\nIn similar terms,<br> gastroenterologist Carlos Waldbaum said: \"Endoscopy is a safe practice,<br> important for the diagnosis and prevention of diseases,<br>\" he began.\n\nIn a dialogue with A24,<br> the specialist was forceful in stating that the risks are minimal: \"Emergency endoscopy is very common. The degree of complications is around one in a thousand and they are mild,<br> and one death is one in ten thousand. \"\n\nWaldbaum indicated that \"the complication could have come from the anesthesia\",<br> however he insisted on clarifying that \"in the usual practice the methods are very safe and the complication rate is more than extraordinary\".\n\nFinally,<br> he stressed the need to \"reassure the population in general\" because \"it is a very frequent and simple resource in the hands of experts\".",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"news\",<br>\"new\",<br>\"blog\",<br>\"story\",<br>\"life\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"http:\/\/fotos2013.cloud.noticias24.com\/endoscopia-muerte-riesgos-consecuencias.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " | | vote | "voter":"p4ul4",
