Welcome to the new endoscopy rooms that opened last spring!<\/p>\n

The Endoscopy Unit now has 5 examining rooms, instead of 3. Another big change: a new and improved patient-centred layout with several waiting rooms. This layout is much more efficient in terms of hygiene, work and safety standards. It saves time between examinations. And provides much better patient privacy. <\/p>\n

The relocation and redesign of the Endoscopy Unit arrived at just the right time. Not only did it help us catch up on the backlog created by the pandemic and reduce wait lists, we\u2019re no longer behind in cancer screening colonoscopies at the Hospital! And the Hospital is on the ready to respond to the new goals of the national colon cancer screening program. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

This is done using an endoscope, an optical tube equipped with a tiny camera and a lighting system. The images are transmitted to a screen. <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A colonoscopy is the exploration of the colon, a gastroscopy is the exploration of the esophagus or stomach, a thoracoscopy is the examination of the walls of the lungs, and so on. The endoscope is passed through a natural opening in the body, when possible, or through an incision. <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Thanks to you and this new fully modern and functional Endoscopy Unit, we can respond better and faster to the growing needs of the region\u2019s population.

    The first thoracoscopy successfully performed in our new endoscopy rooms. Thanks to your generosity, the Hospital is the third facility in Qu\u00e9bec to use a thoracoscope to diagnose lung cancer, in particular. <\/p>\n

    The procedure used to require a general anesthetic and a few days in hospital. Now, it takes less than half a day, and patients experience fewer side effects and recover faster. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
