Methods of intestinal drainage for an acute mechanical ileus

Kutsyk, I. B.

There were examined 362 patients with acute small intestine ileus (SII). It was established, that retrograde intubation according to Zhitnyuk is necessary to apply while treating low SII, especially in patients of elderly and senile age with concomitant cardiovascular and respiratory systems diseases. In patients with an adhesive SII the application of nasogastrointestinal intubation in combination with respiratory therapy is indicated. The jejunostomy with one-stage intestinal intubation via enterotomic hole application is mandatory for high SII, especially if an early enteral feeding is necessary. One-stage intestinal intubation via enterotomic hole as the independent method may be applied for intestinal preparation before the one-stage radical operation conduction.
