Understanding Key Gastrointestinal Tests
Upper GI Endoscopy
Upper GI Endoscopy is a procedure that uses a flexible tube with a camera to examine the upper digestive tract. It may help evaluate conditions such as gastritis, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), peptic ulcers, oesophageal inflammation, structural abnormalities and certain abnormal growths that may require further investigation. The procedure is usually performed under sedation to improve comfort.
Hepatitis Screening
Hepatitis B (HBsAg) screening checks for hepatitis B infection, which can affect liver health and may require ongoing medical monitoring. Hepatitis C (HCV) is a viral infection that can affect the liver and may remain asymptomatic for many years.
Liver Function Testing
Liver function tests assess enzymes and proteins that provide information about liver health. Abnormal results may be associated with the conditions listed below, and further assessment may be required depending on the results.
| Abnormal LFT may be associated with | Examples |
|---|---|
| Metabolic | Fatty liver disease |
| Infective | Viral hepatitis |
| Structural | Bile duct disorders |
| Drug related | Medication-related liver effects* |
*Results should always be interpreted by a healthcare professional, who will advise whether further assessment is needed.

Common Digestive Conditions Evaluated
This screening can shed light on several common digestive conditions. Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) involves stomach contents flowing back into the oesophagus, potentially causing heartburn and irritation. Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining that may cause discomfort, nausea and indigestion. Peptic ulcer disease affects the stomach or duodenum and may cause abdominal pain. Fatty liver disease is a common liver condition linked to metabolic factors such as obesity, diabetes and elevated cholesterol. Viral hepatitis describes infections that affect the liver and may require specialist monitoring.
Preparation for the Gastro Check-up
Before endoscopy, fast for at least 8 hours before the procedure, avoid drinking water for the period advised by your doctor, inform your doctor about any medications you take regularly, discuss blood-thinning medications beforehand, and arrange transport home if sedation is used. Before blood tests, follow the fasting instructions provided at the time of booking and continue prescribed medications unless advised otherwise by your doctor.
