After the procedure, firstly, the vital signs of the patient should be closely monitored. To prevent aspirations, until the gag reflex is whole again, the patient should not be given any foods or drinks. She or she should be monitored for any pain, bleeding or perforations. Following this, the patient should be assisted home to fully recover.
