This document discusses intestinal stomas, specifically colostomies. It describes colostomies as openings of the intestinal or urinary tract onto the abdominal wall. There are two main types of colostomies: decompressing and diverting. Decompressing colostomies are temporary and act as a bridge to definitive treatment by relieving pressure in the proximal colon from distal obstructions. Diverting colostomies are permanent and reroute fecal flow when the distal bowel has been resected. The document provides details on determining colostomy location, types of decompressing stomas like blowhole and loop colostomies, and complications that can arise like stricture, necrosis, and herniasStomas

The duodenum is the C-shaped, initial part of the small intestine that receives contents from the stomach. Duodenal diverticula are pouches that can protrude either outside (extramural) or inside (intramural) the duodenum wall. Extramural diverticula are more common, located near the bile duct entrance, and their cause is not fully known. Most duodenal diverticula are asymptomatic, but some people experience abdominal pain, nausea, or jaundice. Complications can include gallstones or inflammation of the bile ducts and pancreas if the diverticulum obstructs these structures. Diagnosis involves imaging like barium X-rays, endoscopy, CTEsophageal Strictures

The document summarizes key aspects of the digestive system and four digestive terms:
1) The digestive system transforms food into fuel through mechanical and chemical digestion, absorbing nutrients and excreting waste.
2) Anastomosis is the surgical connection of two organs or vessels. Choledocholithotripsy is crushing gallstones in the bile duct. Cachexia is severe weight loss associated with illness. Extraction removes teeth by loosening and pulling them.
3) Common digestive system procedures and diseases are described like gallstone treatment options and symptoms of cachexia.Procedures Performed On Digestive System

The digestive system has several functions: breakdown of food, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of waste. Food moves through the digestive tract via peristalsis. The oral cavity breaks down food using teeth and saliva. The esophagus transports food to the stomach for further breakdown by gastric juices. The small intestine finishes digestion and absorption with the help of pancreatic juices and bile from the liver and gallbladder. The large intestine absorbs water and eliminates waste. The document defines many terms related to the anatomy and functions of the digestive system and associated diseases and disorders.Chapter 8 digestive

The document defines several medical terms related to the digestive system:
- Colonoscopy is a procedure to examine the inside of the colon using a flexible tube with a camera.
- Serum bilirubin is a liver test that measures bilirubin levels, which may indicate liver problems or gallbladder issues if elevated.
- Hernioplasty is a surgical hernia repair where mesh is often used to strengthen the abdominal wall.
- Anastomosis is a surgical connection between vessels, ducts, or bowel segments.The digestive system

The document discusses several terms related to the digestive system:
Colonoscopy is a procedure used to examine the inside of the colon and rectum using a flexible scope.
Choledocholithotripsy is a procedure to crush gallstones in the common bile duct.
Serum bilirubin is a blood test that measures bilirubin levels, which indicates liver function and the ability to process bilirubin.
Extraction refers to the surgical removal of teeth.Digestive System

- 1. The Digestive System Chapter 8 Report Lauren Fowlkes
- 2. Basic Definition The digestive system works to provide the body with important nutrient molecules that are brought into the body through the food we eat. Food is broken down mechanically and chemically, nutrient molecules are absorbed, and any food that is not digested or absorbed is eliminated in the form of solid waste.
- 3. This Presentation In this presentation, four terms relating to the digestive system will be explained. The terms are Bite-Wing X-Ray Serum Bilirubin Lavage Anastomosis
- 4. Bite-Wing X-Ray This is a type of dental radiography that is used to view the posterior teeth on each side of the mouth. Part of the film holder is held between the teeth while the film is parallel to the teeth.
- 5. Uses of Bite-Wing X-Ray Examination of interdental caries (i.e. cavities) Examination of recurrent caries Representation of bone loss in teeth
- 6. Serum Bilirubin This is a blood test used to determine the amount of bilirubin, a waste product excreted in bile and urine, in the blood stream. Jaundice, a yellow coloring of the skin and eyes, often leads a health care provider to suggest this blood test.
- 7. Indications Normal Bilirubin levels are 0.3 to 1.9 mg/dL of blood Abnormal Levels may indicate Hemolytic anemia Transfusion Reaction Cirrhosis Hepatitis Gilberts Disease Biliary Stricture Cancer of the pancreas Gallstones
- 8. Lavage Gastric lavage is the use of a nasogastric (NG) tube in order to clean out the contents of the stomach. It is often done following the ingestion of a dangerous substance, overdose on a drug such as alcohol or before surgery.
- 9. Anastomosis This is the surgical procedure of creating a connection between two organs or vessels. In terms of the digestive system two ends of the intestines are joined together following the removal of a section.
- 10. Common Anastomoses Colostomy- between the bowel and the abdomen Bowel Resection- section is removed and the two ends rejoined Roux-en Y- technique used in several procedures that include: Gastric Bypass Gastrectomy Bile Duct Obstructions
