| الوصف: | Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is commonly performed for abdominal pain in children, and in the presence of alarm symptoms, the diagnostic yield of this procedure is high. The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of EGD when performed for uncomplicated abdominal pain in children in the absence of alarm symptoms. Charts of all children less than 18 years of age who underwent EGD at the University of Florida between January 2016 and October 2018 were reviewed. Of 1478 children who underwent EGD for any indication, 287 patients (male-to-female = 123:164) were discovered to have undergone EGD, in the absence of colonoscopy, for uncomplicated acute or chronic abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, gastroesophageal reflux, and/or dyspepsia, with no alarm symptoms. A significant change in clinical management was noted in 20 (7.0%) children. The findings of this procedure changed clinical management in a minority of our study participants. |
