Clinical application of super-low-positioned intestinal decompression tube in the treatment of intestinal obstruction: a pilot study.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application and efficacy of a super-low-positioned intestinal decompression tube in the treatment of intestinal obstruction.

Methods: A total of 130 patients with postoperative small bowel obstruction were included in this study. The patients were divided into a super-low-positioned intestinal decompression group and a conventional intestinal decompression group.

Short-term outcomes of a new gastrointestinal decompression tube combined with conservative treatment in patients with esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage after total gastrectomy.

To compare the short-term outcomes of a new gastrointestinal decompression tube combined with conservative treatment in patients with esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage (EJAL) after total gastrectomy. We retrospectively analyzed the data of 81 patients with EJAL who had undergone total gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y reconstruction at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between January 2014 and December 2021. The patients were divided into experimental (12 patients with new gastrointestinal decompression tube plus conservative treatment) and control (69 patients with conservative treatment) groups, according to the different treatment methods they received.

Clinical Analysis of the Curative Effect of a Transnasal Ileus Tube in the Treatment of Small Bowel Obstruction Caused by a Phytobezoar.

Objective: To investigate the curative effect of a transnasal ileus tube in the treatment of small bowel obstruction caused by a phytobezoar.

Methods: Seventy-one patients with small bowel obstruction caused by a phytobezoar who underwent treatment in three provincial tertiary grade A hospitals in Fujian Province from March 2011 to February 2020 were included in this study. Patients were divided into the following two groups according to the treatment received: (1) conservative group, comprising patients who received medical conservative treatment, and (2) combined group, including patients who received combined medical conservative treatment and transnasal ileus tube placement.
