About Gastritis

Gastritis is not a procedure but a medical condition characterized by inflammation, irritation, or erosion of the stomach lining. A gastroenterologist diagnoses and manages gastritis through a comprehensive approach. This typically involves a detailed medical history, physical examination, and often an upper endoscopy (EGD) where a thin, flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the mouth to visually inspect the stomach lining. During the endoscopy, small tissue samples (biopsies) may be taken for laboratory analysis to determine the cause, such as H. pylori infection or autoimmune activity. Treatment is then tailored based on the findings and may include medications like proton pump inhibitors, antibiotics, or dietary and lifestyle modifications to reduce stomach acid, eliminate infection, and promote healing of the gastric mucosa.

Key Highlights

Accurate diagnosis through direct visualization of the stomach lining via endoscopy.Ability to obtain tissue biopsies to identify the specific cause (e.g., H. pylori, autoimmune).Guides targeted and effective treatment plans to relieve symptoms and promote healing.Helps rule out more serious conditions like ulcers or stomach cancer.Minimally invasive diagnostic approach with a quick procedure time for endoscopy.

Who is this surgery for?

Persistent upper abdominal pain, burning, or discomfort.
Chronic nausea, vomiting, or feeling of fullness soon after beginning to eat.
Unexplained bloating, indigestion, or loss of appetite.
Suspected H. pylori infection or need for confirmation.
Evaluation for potential causes of gastrointestinal bleeding (if present).
Monitoring of known conditions like chronic atrophic gastritis.
Failure of initial empirical treatment with acid-reducing medications.

How to prepare

Fasting: Typically, no food or drink (including water) for 6-8 hours before an endoscopy.
Medication Review: Inform your doctor about all medications, especially blood thinners (aspirin, warfarin, etc.), which may need to be temporarily adjusted.
Arrange Transportation: Sedation is often used, so a companion must drive you home after the procedure.
Medical History: Be prepared to discuss symptoms, diet, alcohol use, and any NSAID (painkiller) intake in detail.
Consent: You will sign a consent form after discussing the procedure's benefits and risks with your gastroenterologist.

Risks & possible complications

Reaction to sedation, such as respiratory issues or allergic reaction (rare).
Sore throat or hoarseness from the endoscope.
Minor bleeding at biopsy sites, which usually stops on its own.
Perforation (a tear in the stomach or esophageal wall) – an extremely rare but serious complication.
Infection risk, though very low due to sterile equipment.
Incomplete diagnosis if inflammation is patchy and not sampled.

Recovery & hospital stay

Immediate Post-Procedure: Rest in recovery until sedation wears off (1-2 hours). You may feel bloated from air introduced during the endoscopy.
Diet: Start with clear liquids and gradually resume a normal diet as tolerated, often the same day.
Activity: Avoid driving, operating machinery, or making important decisions for 24 hours post-sedation. Normal activities can usually resume the next day.
Symptom Management: Follow the prescribed treatment plan (medications, diet changes) as directed by your gastroenterologist.
Follow-up: Attend scheduled follow-up appointments to discuss biopsy results and adjust treatment if necessary.

Typical hospital stay: 0 days (outpatient) or 1 day if complications arise
Expected recovery time: 1-2 days for sedation effects; several weeks for stomach lining to heal with treatment

PATIENT REVIEW

I'd been to three other doctors...

I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Latha at MGM was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to everything I was saying. She ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something quite rare. She explained it all to me in plain Tamil, drew diagrams on a notepad. I was scared, but she laid out a clear plan. It's been a long road, but I finally feel like we're getting somewhere.
