Transient Global Amnesia After Screening Esophagogastroduodenoscopy: Incidence and Risk Factors in a 20‐Year Single‐Center Cohort
The incidence of post-EGD TGA was very low at 15.2 per 100,000 examinations (0.0152%). Older age, female sex, transoral insertion, and treated dyslipidemia were independently associated with post-EGD TGA. A transnasal approach might be a potential risk-reduction strategy.
