Insights
Prolonged peridural blockade and novocain injections prevent dynamic intestinal obstruction. This method shortens hospital stays and reduces complications and mortality in 200 patients.
Area of Science:
- Surgery
- Anesthesiology
- Gastroenterology
Context:
- Dynamic intestinal obstruction is a common postoperative complication.
- Effective prevention strategies are crucial for patient recovery and reducing healthcare costs.
Purpose:
- To evaluate the efficacy of prolonged peridural blockade and novocain injections in preventing dynamic intestinal obstruction.
- To assess the impact of these interventions on postoperative recovery, complications, and mortality.
Summary:
- A study involving 200 patients utilized prolonged peridural blockade and intravenous/intra-aortal novocain injections, timed with the pathological process phase.
- These interventions were shown to facilitate the passage of flatus and stools.
- The treatment successfully reduced hospital stays, postoperative complications, and mortality rates.
Impact:
- Demonstrates a novel therapeutic approach for preventing dynamic intestinal obstruction.
- Highlights the potential of anesthesia-related interventions to improve surgical outcomes.
- Provides evidence for reducing patient morbidity and mortality in the postoperative period.
Abstract:
In order to prevent the development of the dynamic intestinal obstruction the prolonged peridural blockade, intravenous and intraaortal injection of the solution of novocain were used with reference to the phase of the pathological process. Results of the examination of 200 patients has shown that these measures facilitate passage of flatus and stools, shortens the staying of the patients at the hospital and reduces the amount of postoperative complications and lethality.
