Detect:
Symptoms - Colicky abdominal pain, distension, nausea and vomiting, constipation, inability to pass gas.Signs - High pitched, tinkling or absent bowel sounds
Often non specific
Describe:Hallmark- Obstruction leading to dilation upstream and decompression downstream
Warning Signs-
Complete: nothing getting past Incomplete or Partial: some air and fluid post Closed Loop: Obstructed bowel at 2 points along the GI tract Strangulated obstructionDifferential:
Differential goes back to our common causes so break it down into intrinsic, extrinsic or intraluminal
Decision:
Conservative: NG decompression, bowel restSurgical: Resection indicated in high grade obstruction, bowel ischemia, failure to improve with conservative management
Both clinical and radiological presentations can predict the need for surgical intervention
Clinical Predictors: Clinical signs of intestinal ischemia: abdominal pain worse despite conservative management, SIRS, Peritonitis, Metabolic Acidosis Failure of conservative managementCT Indications for surgical management Predictors of poor CT outcomes: 1.) Intraperitoneal free fluid 2.) Free intra-abdominal gas 3.) Duodenal distension 4.) High grade obstruction 5.) Signs of intestinal ischemia 6.) Closed Loop Obstruction Surgical Correctable causes of SBO: 1.) Volvulus 2.) Incarcerated Hernia 3.) Closed Loop Obstruction 4.) Small Bowel Tumour 5.) gallstone ileus 6.) Foreign body ingestionSigns of small bowel obstruction with equivocal outcomes in regard to conservative vs. surgical intervention: Mesenteric congestion, presence of a transition point, small bowel feces signProduced By Mike Spouge
