Abstract:
Polyethylene glycol-electrolyte lavage solution (PEG-ELS) is a whole gut lavage solution designed to cleanse the gastrointestinal tract prior to bowel surgery or endoscopy. This method relies on pediatric nurses safely administering a large volume of PEG-ELS, marketed as Golytely, to produce the flushing effect without significant absorption of the Golytely.
