Hot or cold? study tests water temperature to improve endoscopy experience

NCT ID NCT05454475

Summary

This study aimed to find the best water temperature to use during a specific type of sedated endoscopy (small probe ultrasound) to improve patient comfort and safety while getting clearer images. Researchers tested cold, warm, and hot water on 270 patients to see which temperature led to the best image quality, the fewest stomach movements, and the highest patient comfort scores. The goal was to create a standard, evidence-based practice for this common diagnostic procedure.
