Abstract

Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a fundamental diagnostic and therapeutic modality for various gastrointestinal diseases. As endoscopic techniques evolve, mastering the step-by-step process of EGD—including insertion, navigation, and systematic observation—is essential for ensuring patient safety and diagnostic accuracy. This video article provides a comprehensive, narrated demonstration of the techniques involved in EGD, from patient preparation to scope control and anatomical orientation. It emphasizes key technical details such as endoscope handling, the role of hand movements in scope navigation, and systematic evaluation of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. All demonstrations were performed using a simulation model (UGI Endoscopy Simulator; MEDICAL IP, Korea) with an Olympus GIF-HQ290 endoscope. This educational video serves as a practical guide for trainees seeking to refine their technique and increase procedural efficacy.
