- Depression and anxiety in glioma cases - [1]
- IDH wild type. Works more on behavioral change.
- After first line treatment, glioblastoma OS is 2-9 months. [2]. But, gemini sez maintenance chemo (
Wed Jan 9, 2024
- Common enema fluids - [3]. MgPo is gentler than NaPo. They work by making intestines absorb water.
- Order of treatment for impaction: laxative, enema, disimpaction. [4]. If suppository needed, it should be doctor-ordered. [5].
- Digital disimpaction is not recommended to be done by oneself. [6]
- How to identify fecal impaction? [7]. If so, get out the gloves.
- Why does fecal impaction cause vomiting? [8]
- When is ER required for fecal impaction? [9]
Fecal impaction can be life threatening. [10]
- Fecal impaction is not constipation. It is result of constipation. [11].
More questions:
- What the patient considers "normal" BMs
- Usual bowel habit, duration of feeling constipated, date of last BM
- Current stool appearance (consistency, color, odor, blood, mucous)
- Associated symptoms (e.g., nausea, abdominal fullness, bloating, gas, diarrhea, tenesmus)
- Likely causes and contributing factors (see Table 2):
- Medication history, including laxatives, suppositories, enemas
- Medical conditions affecting laxative selection (e.g., vocal cord paralysis, which precludes mineral oil, or impaired renal function, which contraindicates magnesium salts)
- Current diet and desire to eat as well as fiber intake (can patient consume fiber to 30 G per day and drink sufficient fluids to maximize bulk effects and avoid exacerbating constipation?)
- Activity level, altered mobility, fatigue, or weakness, which may interfere with usual normal BMs.
- It is prudent to anticipate opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in patients starting or taking opioid analgesics and to start prophylactic management. [12]
- Megacolon - bowel distends to 4" [13]
- Acetylcholine - anticholinergics suppress it. [14]. Is that part of cancer treatment?
- 80-90% of terminal cases report constipation
- Paradoxical diarrhea - overflow diarrhea around hard stool. Par 2 [15]
- Anal fissure - tearing of ass
Assessment, no pun intended, for 'functional constipation' involves the 25% rule [16]
- Shits aren't well addressed for cancer patients - [17]
- Should a brain cancer treatment patient go to the ER for serious constipation - Could be serious if no shit for 1 week - [18]. If no BM after 1-2 days of laxative, go to ER.
- Fecal impaction - [19]. Suggested order is laxative followed by physical means. Careful about complications. Can take days to weeks to form over time [20]
- Dulcolax (bisacodyl) forces shit out. Miralax (polyethylene glycol) softens it first, takes longer. [21]
- Miralax - polyethylene glycol - works by softening shit with water by making stomach feed water into the shit. [22]
- Mechanism for hardening is sucking of water out the intestine walls, making shit hard. This occurs from retarded bowel movement. [23]
