[Correction of enteral distress syndrome in acute intestinal obstruction]

On the basis of a comprehensive assessment of the functional state of the intestine in acute mechanical small bowel obstruction, to justify adequate schemes of its protection.

A clinical and laboratory study of 48 patients with acute small bowel obstruction developed against the background of abdominal adhesions, strangulated abdominal hernia was conducted. The first group (n=25) of patients who underwent laparotomy, removal of intestinal obstruction (adhesiolysis and/or herniation, hernial gate plastic surgery), intestinal intubation, standardized therapy after surgery. The second group (n=23) - patients, therapy included Remaxol (Polysan Pharmaceutical Plant, Petersburg): 400.0 enterally intraoperatively through a probe after nasointestinal intubation, evacuation of stagnant contents and intestinal lavage with isotonic saline solution; 400.0 - intravenously for 5 days. A number of indicators of homeostasis (endogenous intoxication, oxidative stress), structural and functional state of the intestine were evaluated.

It was found that the inclusion of remaxol in complex therapy (intraoperatively and in the early postoperative period) leads to the optimization of the treatment process of patients with acute intestinal obstruction. The number of complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification decreased from 17 (first) up to 5 (second group) (χ²=3.988, p=0.046). Hospital stay decreased from 12.8±1.1 to 10.1±0.8 bed days (p<0.05). The effectiveness of the developed scheme is based on its ability to correct the phenomena of enteral distress syndrome relatively quickly, which was confirmed by laboratory and instrumental methods. The most important manifestation of this was a significant decrease in the phenomena of endogenous intoxica tion against the background of a significant decrease in the activity of peroxidation of membrane lipids - triggers of catabolic intestinal lesions.

Studies document the effectiveness of the developed treatment regimen for patients with acute intestinal obstruction. The inclusion of remaxol parenterally and enterally makes it possible to significantly optimize the course of the early postoperative period. One of the main objects of its implementation was the relatively rapid restoration of intestinal function, reduction of manifestations of enteral distress syndrome. This provided rapid relief of endogenous intoxication and, as a result, prevented the progression of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, which together determined the optimization of the early postoperative period.
