Facilities Offered at Calwin Hospitals
UGI Endoscopy
At Calwin Hospitals, we offer Upper GI endoscopy, a procedure to diagnose, treat, and manage all problems related to the upper gastrointestinal tract. An upper GI endoscopy covers the food pipe, stomach, and the first part of your small intestine. It involves sending a thin and flexible tube to the mouth and throat. The catheter is fitted with a tiny camera and light to capture images of the affected area.
We diagnose and treat common conditions like gastro-oesophageal reflux, H. pylori infection, and peptic ulcers.
Among other things, our surgeons perform emergency treatment for variceal bleeding, application of thermal current, endoscopic treatment for peptic ulcers application of thermal current or Haemoclips, Endoscopic treatment for bleeding peptic ulcer by injection, placement of Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) tube or jejunostomy as a feeding device for neurologically impaired patients or those who are not able to swallow. We also perform endotherapy for early cancers and place stents to treat obstructive malignant lesions.
Colonoscopy
Colonoscopy helps understand signs and symptoms like rectal bleeding, chronic diarrhoea, etc. The procedure refers to inserting a flexible tube inside the rectum to look for swollen or irritated tissues, polyps, and even cancer in the large rectum. Surgeons screen for colon cancer, look for polyps, and even for treatment, i.e., remove an object or place a stent.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography
ERCP helps diagnose and treat liver, gallbladder, bile, and pancreas problems. The surgeon inserts an endoscope (a flexible tube fitted with a camera) through the patient’s mouth and into the upper digestive tract to check for stones, blockages, fluid leakage from the pancreas, tumour, or even bile duct infection.
