Preparing for a colonoscopy

What do you need to know before video colonoscopy?

Videocolonoscopy is an endoscopic examination method that allows you to visually evaluate the inner surface of the rectum, sigmoid and colon to the dome of the cecum. A colonoscope is a flexible long probe with a built-in video chip that transmits a color image from inside the body to a monitor.

Information about the condition of the colon obtained through colonoscopy is unique; it allows you to make an accurate diagnosis and choose an adequate treatment method. Videocolonoscopy (VCS) is a low-risk procedure.

For maximum comfort and information content of the study in our center, patients have the unique opportunity to undergo VCS under medicated sleep.

On the day of the study after medicated sleep, driving is prohibited!

Methodology

To undergo the examination, you will need to remove all clothing below the waist, including underwear, then put on disposable shorts and lie down on the couch on your left side. For your comfort, we recommend that you bring a change of T-shirt with you for the examination. After direct digital examination of the rectum, the doctor inserts a colonoscope, lubricated with Vaseline or a special gel, into the anus.

For the first three days, you should include breakfast of rolled oats with fruit in your menu. The rest of the day they drink water.
For the next 4 days they eat porridge in the morning, eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese or chicken at lunch.
It is important to drink 2 liters of water every day.
For the next 7 days, the diet includes three meals a day. This includes fermented milk products, proteins, and grains. The best option would be vegetable salads.
In the 3rd week, flour products and carbohydrates are added. You can rarely eat pasta, potatoes, and sweets. Breakfast should be hearty.

Then they adjust the menu themselves. After a month, all bans are canceled. In any case, you should not indulge in junk food in the form of fast food, otherwise the excess weight will return.

Competent entry into the diet, or the right start

You can’t overeat today and suddenly start losing weight tomorrow. If you look at the results of even a week of drinking diet, then only trained people lose weight well. They consciously approach studying the rules, the menu, and change their diet a few days before the start.

How does this happen:

liquid porridges and soups are used for breakfast;
Second courses and bread are removed from lunch;
whole fruits and vegetables are excluded, purees are used;
Instead of a hearty dinner, they eat fermented milk products, vegetable stew, and mashed potatoes.

You also need to take care of purchasing preparations for various drinks in advance. Drinking only water or tea several times a day will quickly get boring. You need to take care of cocoa, coffee, herbal preparations of various types. It is advisable to learn how to cook jelly, make uzvar, and various compotes from healthy ingredients.

Purchasing a blender and juicer is also a kind of preparation for a diet. These kitchen appliances will help you quickly diversify your diet without wasting time and effort. A working person is recommended to purchase bottles with tight lids that are convenient to take with them.
