An Overview of OGDscopy Course for Medical
Professionals
2
An OGDscopy is known in medical terms as
oesophago-gastroduodenoscopy. Doctors sometimes
refer to the procedure more simply as a
gastroscopy. During an OGDscopy, the doctor
examines the patients gullet, stomach, and
duodenum. The checks are performed with the help
of a tool called a gastroscope. The gastroscope
can send images on a screen for the endoscopist
to view in order to make a diagnosis.

An OGDscopy is generally performed when patients
complain about facing symptoms such as vomiting,
black stools, indigestion, or issues in
swallowing. As part of the diagnosis, the doctor
may also take a small section of tissue from the
digestive tract a procedure known as a biopsy.
This sample will be sent for further
investigation. An OGDscopy is carried out
keeping patient comfort in mind. To that effect,
a sedative or anaesthesia spray may be
administered. It is important that the patient
does not eat or drink anything for a couple of
hours before the process.

Pursuing an OGDscopy Course An OGDscopy calls
for extremely deft movements on the part of the
doctor performing the procedure. Any mistakes can
lead to a perforation in the stomach lining or
damage to the patients teeth. Owing to the skill
required to carry out this examination, medical
practitioners often opt to pursue a special
OGDscopy course. An OGDscopy course is
generally targeted towards program participants
who are practising gastroenterologists,
practising physicians, practising surgeons, and
practising endoscopists. The course may also be
pursued by gastroenterologist fellows.
5
A good OGDscopy course generally involves a
blended learning approach that includes a period
of observation followed by hands-on learning and
training. Course participants may also benefit
from traditional lectures, printed and video
learning material, and discussions with other
attendees as a part of the training module.
Admission to an OGDscopy course generally forms
a part of continuing medical studies (CME).
Reputed medical platforms reward trainees with a
certificate of completion that boosts their
efforts at CME. These certificates help affirm
that the medical practitioner is up-to-date with
the latest developments in medical studies and
are thus, competent enough to offer their
patients the best in health care. An OGDscopy
course is generally conducted by an expert in the
field of gastroenterology. The educators will
usually have several years of experience in
training endoscopists as well as an exemplary
record practising medicine.

Towards Continuing Medical Learning Medical
practitioners often seek out courses as part of
their efforts for CME. CME helps a healthcare
professional earn necessary licences or
certificates that prove they are qualified to
practice. It also enables them grow in their
field professionally. Medical Learning Hub (MLH)
is a platform that offers a wide range of courses
for CME for doctors. The courses span across many
specialities in medicine and are conducted by
field experts. The modules include a variety of
learning techniques such as live observation,
lectures, video lessons, and simulation, among
others to truly help course participants get the
most out of their training. To view a complete
list of the available courses and webinars, long
