Your health, my commitment.
The difference between electronic colonoscopy and painless colonoscopy is whether anesthesia is performed, the state of examination, contraindications, etc.
1. Whether anesthesia is performed
If ordinary electronic colonoscopy is performed, anesthesia is generally not performed; painless colonoscopy requires anesthesia.
2. The state of examination
is performed by ordinary electronic colonoscopy. The patient's consciousness may be conscious and the patient may feel pain; painless colonoscopy is performed under anesthesia, and the patient is unconscious during the examination.
3.
Contraindications for electronic colonoscopy include anal stricture, intestinal perforation, etc.; contraindications for painless colonoscopy include sedation, anesthesia allergy, and other anesthesia risks.
