When everyone is feeling unwell, it is important to promptly go to the hospital for examination. There are many examination methods for diseases in hospitals nowadays, and the most commonly used ones are X-rays, ultrasound, etc. If you go to a large hospital for a B-ultrasound, it usually requires an appointment and appointment number. So, what should I do if I have already made an appointment for an ultrasound?
If you have made an appointment for an ultrasound, you can go to the nurse's desk to explain the situation. Nowadays, hospitals are more humane and usually help patients reschedule their appointments, but patients need to queue up again for treatment. At this point, don't walk away casually, pay attention to the queue prompts, and just wait at the door with peace of mind.
Many people believe that an ultrasound should be performed on an empty stomach, but whether or not to do so depends on what type of ultrasound it is. If an abdominal ultrasound examination is performed, it is necessary to fast, and everyone should fast for 8 hours before the examination. This is because after eating, organs such as the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas will undergo some changes, and some organs may even change in position, such as the spleen, which will shift backwards and upwards after eating.
If you are doing a heart ultrasound, you don't need to go on an empty stomach. Moreover, women can also eat during routine gynecological ultrasound examinations. In addition, women do not need to undergo ultrasound examinations on an empty stomach during pregnancy, and the fetus can only stay in the belly more obediently after the pregnant woman has eaten enough, which is beneficial for the smooth progress of the examination.
