During a colonoscopy, a patient’s privacy was inadvertently exposed due to the examination room door being left open, garnering widespread attention.

Recently, veteran host Tao Chun of Shanghai Television shared his health check experience on Xiaohongshu. He underwent a health check at a top-tier hospital in Shanghai and noticed that the doors of the endoscopy rooms across from the waiting area were wide open, leading to an embarrassing situation where a patient receiving examination was exposed.

Tao explained in the video that colonoscopy procedures require patients to wear special protective pants, yet during his wait, he realized the examination room was open, revealing a doctor focused on a monitor showing intestinal images. Particularly shocking was that the patient with the instrument inserted was facing right towards the waiting area.

Tao believes such occurrences expose shortcomings in hospital management and stress the importance of patient privacy. Additionally, some netizens commented that in busy hospitals, saving lives must be prioritized over excessive criticism.
