Symptoms and treatment of intestinal paralysis

The clinical symptoms of intestinal paralysis mainly include abdominal pain, abdominal distension, constipation, nausea, vomiting, anal cessation of defecation, etc. During abdominal examination, visual examination reveals full abdominal distension, palpation reveals pressure pain, percussion reveals obvious drum sounds, and auscultation reveals diminished or absent bowel sounds. Treatment can be divided into gastrointestinal decompression, drug and surgical treatment: 1, gastrointestinal decompression: if the intestinal paralysis caused by peritonitis after abdominal surgery, or the presence of obvious abdominal distension, respiratory and circulatory functions are affected, gastrointestinal decompression can be carried out, which can reduce the accumulation of intestinal contents, reduce intestinal cavity expansion, facilitate blood circulation in the intestinal wall and reduce intestinal wall edema; 2, drug treatment: a variety of parasympathetic stimulants can be applied. Such as neostigmine, pituitary hormone, etc., have certain efficacy in the prevention and treatment of paralytic intestinal obstruction. In addition, sympathetic nerve inhibitors such as chlorpromazine can also be applied; 3, surgical treatment: for those who cannot be distinguished from mechanical intestinal obstruction, abdominal exploratory surgery is feasible, and whole-layer biopsy of the diseased intestinal canal can be performed to clarify the cause, and corresponding surgical treatment can be performed according to the location and degree of intestinal lesions; 4, treatment of the original disease: for those who have a clear cause, the original disease should be actively treated, and the phenomenon of intestinal paralysis can be relieved with the healing of the original disease.
