Pathophysiology of Bowel Obstruction
All events that occur after the pathophysiology of bowel obstruction. The main pathophysiological changes in bowel obstruction is the intestinal lumen is clogged, it became a place of bacterial growth resulting in the accumulation of gases and liquids (70% of the gas that is ingested). Gas and fluid accumulation can occur in the proximal or distal intestine. When accumulation occurs in the distal region resulted in an increase in intra-abdominal pressure and intra lumen. This can increase the occurrence of increased capillary permeability and extravasation of water and electrolytes in the peritoneal. is the same, regardless of whether the obstruction is caused by mechanical or non-mechanical causes. The main difference is the paralytic obstruction inhibited peristalsis from the beginning, whereas the mechanical obstruction peristaltic first amplified, then intermittent, and eventually disappear. Approximately 6-8 liters of fluid excreted into the gastrointestinal tract every day. Most
