Chronic Constipation and Irritable Bowel Syndrome There are about a million Hong Kong people suffering from chronic constipation and half a million from irritable bowel syndrome. Many studies in this field have been conducted, including the use of new pharmacological agent. Gastrointestinal and Liver Cancer Screening The human gut harbors approximately 20% of all cancers. In Hong Kong, cancers from the gastrointestinal tract account for half of the ten major causes of cancer deaths in the recent years, i.e. colon, liver and stomach cancers rank second, third, and fourth respectively. Targeted Population:
Endoscopy Services With the collaboration of the Endoscopy Centre, the centre provides a full range of endoscopy services, including diagnostic and therapeutic upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, endoscopic retrograde chloangio-pancreaticography (ERCP), single balloon enteroscopy, double balloon enteroscopy, video capsule endoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, etc. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or acid reflux is a common disease in Hong Kong. Gastroesophageal reflux refers to the backflow of gastric juice into the esophagus. Symptoms include acid reflux, burning pain or discomfort in the chest, nausea and gas, foreign body sensation in the throat, difficulty in swallowing, persistent cough, and even lung infection. Studies have found that most patients do not find that their discomfort is related to gastroesophageal reflux in the early to mid-term. Prolonged gastroesophageal reflux may cause esophageal inflammation, esophageal stricture, and even develop into precancerous lesions in severe cases. Early diagnosis and Treatment is necessary. Please take 1 minute to complete the "GERD-Q Acid Reflux Symptom Questionnaire [7]" approved by the Chinese University of Hong Kong to help you assess your risk of gastroesophageal reflux. |
