Examen de ácido estomacal - Riesgos

Nombres alternativos

Examen de secreción de ácido gástrico

Cuáles son los riesgos:

Existe un leve riesgo con la colocación de la sonda a través de la tráquea y luego a los pulmones, en lugar de ser a través del esófago hasta el estómago. El médico verificará la colocación correcta de dicha sonda, antes de continuar con el examen.

Si el examen incluye inyección de insulina, existe el riesgo de inducir síntomas de azúcar bajo en la sangre.
