Effect of propofol on anal sphincter pressure during anorectal manometry.
We evaluated the effect of propofol on resting anal sphincter pressure (RP) during anorectal manometry performed under general anesthesia in 20 children with chronic constipation. After propofol bolus administration, there was a significant decrease in the RP in 95% of children from a mean of 51.5 ± 15.3 to a mean nadir of 21.7 ± 10.5 mmHg (P < 0.001). The new postpropofol RP of 47.0 ± 12.4 mmH...
متن کاملObstetric anal sphincter injury
Obstetric trauma following childbirth is the primary cause of faecal incontinence in women. Injury to the anal sphincter complex is common: it has been clinically diagnosed in 0.4–2.5% of vaginal deliveries involving a mediolateral episiotomy and in up to 19% of cases of midline episiotomy. Studies using endoanal ultrasound have reported occult anal sphincter injury in up to 35% of women after ...
متن کاملObstetric anal sphincter injury.
Anal sphincter injury during childbirth is a leading cause of anal incontinence. In a study of more than 20 000 consecutive vaginal deliveries, clinically diagnosed obstetric anal sphincter injury occurred in 2.9% of primiparous women and 0.8% of multiparous ones. Of women who have sustained such an injury, 60-80% are asymptomatic at 12 months, of whom most report incontinence of flatus only, r...
متن کاملAnal Incontinence and Obstetric Anal Sphincter Tears
PURPOSE: To evaluate the prevalence of anal incontinence (AI) in primiparous women five years after their first delivery; to investigate if an 8-12 hour time delay of primary repair affects AI at 1-year follow-up; to study the association between endoanal ultrasonography and anorectal manometry in relation to AI in primiparous women; to evaluate whether an endoanal ultrasonographic derived sphi...
متن کاملTopical diltiazem and bethanechol decrease anal sphincter pressure and heal anal fissures without side effects.
PURPOSE Topical glyceryl trinitrate heals anal fissures, but a majority of patients experience headache. Topical gels of the calcium channel blocker diltiazem and the cholinomimetic bethanechol significantly lower anal sphincter pressure in volunteers. This study investigated the use of these two new pharmacologic agents in the treatment of patients with chronic anal fissure. METHODS Two stud...
