Abstract:

【Background】To investigate the safety, tolerance and comfort of the subjects in gastroscopy by

observing and comparing the effect of gastroscopy under two different breathing modes: nasal

breathing and nasal inspiration and oral expiration.

【Methods】A total of 60 subjects who underwent routine gastroscopy in our hospital from

February 2021 to June 2021 were selected as the research subjects. According to the willingness

of the subjects, they were divided into a nasal breathing group and a nasal inspiration and oral

expiration group. The differences in vital signs, adverse reactions, and visual analogue scale (VAS)

scores were compared between the two groups.

【Results】There was no significant differences in mean arterial pressure, heart rate and blood

oxygen saturation between the two groups before, during and after the examination (P>0.05). The
nasal breathing group had fewer adverse reactions such as nausea, cough, belching, restlessness, etc.

than the nasal inspiration and oral expiration group, and the difference was statistically significant

(P<0.01). VAS score of the nasal breathing group was lower than that of the nasal inspiration and

oral expiration group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).

【Conclusions】Subjects are more tolerant of nasal breathing mode, which cause fewer adverse

reactions, less pain, more comfort, and is more worthy to be popularized in primary hospitals.

Introduction

Due to its intuitive and clear features, gastroscopy is widely used in clinical practice and is a

common method for the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases [1-2] . Although more

and more sedative and analgesic gastroscopes are currently being carried out. The technical

requirements for anesthesiologists and the higher cost of gastroscopy compared with non-
