Background:
Ultrasound classification can be used to determine the severity of adhesive intestinal obstruction and to guide the formulation of treatment plans.
Aim:
To explore the value of ultrasound classification in disease judgment and treatment plan formulation for patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction.
Methods:
The medical records of 120 patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction presenting at Taihe Hospital Affiliated with Hubei Medical College were retrospectively analyzed from January 2022 to January 2024 according to the severity of ultrasound images, divided into simple (mild), complex (moderate), and critical (severe), analyzing the imaging characteristics of patients with different ultrasound classifications, and developing the corresponding treatment plan according to the ultrasound typing results, that is, conservative treatment and surgical treatment, contrast the ultrasound signs of patients in the conservative vs surgical treatment groups, and the value of ultrasound classification in the treatment of adhesive ileus.
Results:
Among the 120 patients, P > 0.05, compared with the general data (sex, age, body quality index, time to onset, and history of onset), the proportion of bowel distension and abdominal effusion (P > 0.05), and the proportion of adhesion mass and cross-cross in the conservative treatment group, P < 0.05.
Conclusion:
Ultrasound typing can aid in the clinical evaluation of the severity of adhesive intestinal obstruction and provide an imaging reference for clinicians to develop targeted treatment plans.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
Assessment of the Abdomen I: Inspection and Auscultation
The abdominal examination is a cornerstone of clinical medicine, serving as a critical tool in diagnosing various gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. It involves a systematic approach that includes inspection and auscultation, each with distinct yet complementary roles in assessing the abdomen. This article will delve into these two primary methods healthcare professionals use to examine the abdomen.
