Summary

Colonoscopy is one of the most frequently performed procedures for the early diagnosis and treatment of intestinal diseases and plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of lower gastrointestinal disorders. However, for many patients, colonoscopy is considered an invasive, highly painful, and extremely uncomfortable procedure. Furthermore, the anxiety and fear felt before the procedure can affect patients in many ways. These negative feelings can disrupt patient comfort and cause the pain to become even more severe.
