Everyone's gastrointestinal development and physical condition are closely related. Some people have very bad gastrointestinal conditions and are prone to gastrointestinal diseases. For this type of problem, gastrointestinal decompression surgery plays a very important role. Gastrointestinal decompression is still widely used in clinical practice and is beneficial to the healing of gastrointestinal surgery. So what exactly is gastrointestinal decompression surgery? 1. Gastrointestinal decompression Gastrointestinal decompression surgery utilizes the principles of negative pressure attraction and siphoning. A gastric tube is inserted through the oral or nasal cavity to suck out the gas and fluid accumulated in the gastrointestinal tract. This can reduce the pressure and expansion in the gastrointestinal tract for patients with gastrointestinal obstruction, prevent gastrointestinal contents from continuing to leak into the abdominal cavity through the rupture for patients with gastrointestinal perforation, and facilitate the healing of the anastomosis after gastrointestinal anastomosis. Therefore, it has a wide range of applications and is often used in acute gastric dilatation, intestinal obstruction, gastrointestinal perforation repair or partial resection. During the non-surgical treatment or observation of many acute abdominal diseases, Chinese medicine can be infused into the gastrointestinal tract through a gastrointestinal decompression tube. At the same time, when abdominal distension is severe and vomiting is frequent, gastrointestinal decompression can promote gastrointestinal emptying, which is beneficial to the infusion and absorption of oral drugs. 2. Preoperative Preparation During abdominal surgery, especially gastrointestinal surgery, continuous gastrointestinal decompression before and during surgery can prevent gastrointestinal distension, facilitate visual exposure and surgical operation, and prevent aspiration pneumonia during general anesthesia. It can also be used to treat scar-induced pyloric obstruction in gastric and duodenal ulcers. Before surgery, a thicker nasogastric tube is placed and the stomach is lavaged with warm saline every day for 3 consecutive days until the lavage fluid becomes clear to reduce gastric mucosal edema. Postoperative application is beneficial to the healing of abdominal surgical incisions and gastrointestinal anastomosis. 3.
