Sweetheart, you make making absolutely NO sense. Please rethink your question and ask again.

Just guessing here.... PAT may stand for Pre-admission Testing. That means tests you have to have before surgery, like some blood work, may be a chest x-ray, an EKG, may be a Sleep Study. By "scope" perhaps you're referring to an Endoscopy. Most people have one before surgery. They sedate you and give you a drug called Versed. You won't remember anything - they put a tiny camera down your throat so the Doctor can take a look at your stomach and esophagus (food pipe). PAT is also the name of a heart arrhythmia where the heart beats faster than normal. Hope I was helpful..
