The examination, including the physician&#8217;s assessment and the colonoscopy, will take approximately 30 to 45 minutes. However, this time may vary depending on the findings of the endoscopy or anatomical particularities. After the procedure, you will remain in the recovery area for about 30 minutes, or longer if needed, until you meet the discharge criteria, are sufficiently alert, and the physician has reviewed your results with you.<\/p>                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"ui-e-accordion-item ui-e-item\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"ui-e-acc-3\" id=\"ui-e-is-the-procedure-painful\">\n\n                    <h4 class=\"ui-e-accordion-title ui-e-title ui-right\">\n\n                                                    <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon ui-e-icon ui-e-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\n                                <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon-closed\">\n                                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-plus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg>                                <\/span>\n\n                                                                    <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon-opened\">\n                                        <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-minus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg>                                    <\/span>\n                                \n                            <\/span>\n                        \n                                                <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-title-text ui-e-title-text\" >\n                                                        Is the procedure painful?                        <\/span>\n\n                    <\/h4>\n\n                    <div class=\"ui-e-accordion-content ui-e-content\" style=\"display:none;\" aria-labelledby=\"ui-e-is-the-procedure-painful\" id=\"ui-e-acc-3\">\n                        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The procedure is performed under conscious sedation, using an analgesic to relieve pain and a sedative, making the examination much more comfortable. As with any medical procedure, you may experience bloating or discomfort. Certain conditions, such as diverticulosis, a history of hysterectomy, or anatomical particularities, may make the examination more challenging, but the sedation will be adjusted according to your needs to ensure the most pleasant experience possible. Many patients fall asleep during the procedure and do not remember it. Your safety is our priority: your vital signs are continuously monitored throughout the procedure.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"ui-e-accordion-item ui-e-item\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"ui-e-acc-4\" id=\"ui-e-will-i-be-asleep-during-the-procedure\">\n\n                    <h4 class=\"ui-e-accordion-title ui-e-title ui-right\">\n\n                                                    <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon ui-e-icon ui-e-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\n                                <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon-closed\">\n                                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-plus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg>                                <\/span>\n\n                                                                    <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-icon-opened\">\n                                        <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-minus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg>                                    <\/span>\n                                \n                            <\/span>\n                        \n                                                <span class=\"ui-e-accordion-title-text ui-e-title-text\" >\n                                                        Will I be asleep during the procedure?                        <\/span>\n\n                    <\/h4>\n\n                    <div class=\"ui-e-accordion-content ui-e-content\" style=\"display:none;\" aria-labelledby=\"ui-e-will-i-be-asleep-during-the-procedure\" id=\"ui-e-acc-4\">\n                        <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Our goal is to make you as comfortable as possible.
