If you feel pain above your belly button during the second trimester of pregnancy, this may indicate that the pregnant woman has a gastrointestinal disease. The impact of gastrointestinal disease on patients cannot be underestimated, because it will affect the digestion and absorption ability of pregnant women, and will also have a certain impact on the development of the fetus. Therefore, when there is pain above the navel, pregnant women must check their gastrointestinal tract in time. Here I will introduce to you the examination methods for gastrointestinal diseases! 1. 13C breath test This method is the gold standard for detecting Helicobacter pylori HP. Helicobacter pylori is a major cause of gastrointestinal diseases, including gastritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, and gastric cancer. Endoscopic manifestations: redness, swelling, erosion, and even ulcers of the gastric mucosa. If Helicobacter pylori infection is detected, a corresponding anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment plan can be made. 2. Serum anti-HP antibody determination It is simple and convenient, but the rise and fall of HP antibodies are time-sensitive, and the false negative and false positive rates are high, so it cannot be used to judge the efficacy of the test. 3. X-ray examination The patient takes contrast agent or barium enema. After a period of time, the contrast agent passes through the peristalsis of the digestive tract and fills the entire digestive tract. X-ray examination can be used to understand the morphological characteristics of various organs in the digestive tract. Currently, we mainly understand the motility function of the digestive tract. 4. Digestive endoscopy It is the most important examination method for diagnosing organic gastrointestinal diseases. The lesions were detected by high-definition endoscopy and pathological biopsy was performed. Through electronic high-definition endoscopic examination, the gastroscope enters the mouth, esophagus, cardia, stomach, and duodenum, and the colonoscope enters the anus, rectum, sigmoid colon, descending colon, transverse colon, ascending colon, cecum, and terminal ileum. The camera at the tip of the endoscope can be used to directly photograph the surface of the gastrointestinal mucosa and learn in detail whether there is congestion, edema, erosion, ulcer, tumor, etc. 5. Capsule endoscopy If no lesions are found during endoscopic examination and small intestinal lesions are clinically considered, capsule endoscopy can be performed without intubation, and only a capsule that is charged for 8 hours needs to be taken. Your life and work will not be affected, there will be no pain, and you can clearly observe various lesions in the entire gastrointestinal tract. As capsule endoscopy is gradually put into clinical use, patients with gastrointestinal diseases will no longer have to endure the pain of intubation during traditional examinations. 6. Gastric juice analysis Gastric juice analysis can help us understand the secretory function of the stomach and often helps in the diagnosis of certain gastric and duodenal diseases and the observation of treatment effects. 7. Electrogastrogram Electrogastrogram, as a method of examining stomach diseases, can detect abnormal gastric electrical rhythm and is mainly used to diagnose gastrointestinal motility diseases, such as gastroparesis and habitual constipation. |
