This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constipation, Obstipation and Intestinal Stasis (Autointoxication) The object of this volume is to present to the profession a concise and practical treatise on the etiology, pathology, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of constipation and obstipation (intestinal obstruction), During the past fifteen years such flattering success has been mine with the non-medical and surgical treatment of these affections that I have thought it worth while to emphasize in this work the drugless management of constipation and obstipation. From what I have been able to find in the literature and from my conversations with medical men, in addition to my favorable experience, I feel that the manifold benefits to be derived from psychotherapy, diet, and physical measures, such as bodily movements, massage, mechanical vibration, and elec tricity, have not received the marked attention they deserve by phy sicians in general when outlining a plan of treatment for the relief and cure of the different types of costiveness. When discussing the various non-medicinal measures designed for the relief of this complaint I have endeavored to point out as closely as possible their exact indi cations, and to give briefly, in simple language, the technic of their application.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ...the most useful preparations of aloes are aloin, to 2 gr. (0.015-0.12 gm.); purified aloes, 1 to 10 gr. (0.060.6); tincture of aloes and myrrh, fsss to ij (2.0-8.0 cc), and in the form of pills in combination with other remedies (see Formulary); the dose of the latter varies from one to five pills (at night), depending upon the strength of the ingredients and the obstinacy of the case. Rhubarb (Rheum) should never be independently employed in the systematic treatment of chronic constipation, nor should it be prescribed in large doses to secure an immediate evacuation, for the reason that its astringent qualities produce a secondary constipating effect after its cathartic action has subsided. Rhubarb acts very well indeed in the uncommon cases of alternating constipation and diarrhea; it is also a reliable remedy to employ in the treatment of habitual constipation, when used in combination with medicines which will counteract its astringent effects, because of its tendency to improve the appetite and digestion, to increase intestinal secretion and the flow of bile, and to strengthen the intestinal musculature. Rhubarb may be prescribed in the form of a pill (Pilula rhei) containing 2 gr. (0.12 gm.) of rhubarb and ij gr. (0.09 gm.) of aloes; fluidextract, 10 to 30ITI, (0.6-2 cc); aromatic tincture, fess to j (2.0-4.0 cc); syrup, fsj to vj (4.0-24.0 cc), or in one of the combination cathartic pills given in the Formulary. Podophyllin always acts slowly, is a laxative when administered in small doses, and a purgative when larger amounts are given, and, like other remedies of this class, is more effectual in pill form when used in connection with other medicines. In liberal doses, podophyllin increases the biliary and other secretions in from...
Download or read book Colonic Motility written by Sushil K. Sarna and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three distinct types of contractions perform colonic motility functions. Rhythmic phasic contractions (RPCs) cause slow net distal propulsion with extensive mixing/turning over. Infrequently occurring giant migrating contractions (GMCs) produce mass movements. Tonic contractions aid RPCs in their motor function. The spatiotemporal patterns of these contractions differ markedly. The amplitude and distance of propagation of a GMC are several-fold larger than those of an RPC. The enteric neurons and smooth muscle cells are the core regulators of all three types of contractions. The regulation of contractions by these mechanisms is modifiable by extrinsic factors: CNS, autonomic neurons, hormones, inflammatory mediators, and stress mediators. Only the GMCs produce descending inhibition, which accommodates the large bolus being propelled without increasing muscle tone. The strong compression of the colon wall generates afferent signals that are below nociceptive threshold in healthy subjects. However, these signals become nociceptive; if the amplitudes of GMCs increase, afferent nerves become hypersensitive, or descending inhibition is impaired. The GMCs also provide the force for rapid propulsion of feces and descending inhibition to relax the internal anal sphincter during defecation. The dysregulation of GMCs is a major factor in colonic motility disorders: irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and diverticular disease (DD). Frequent mass movements by GMCs cause diarrhea in diarrhea predominant IBS, IBD, and DD, while a decrease in the frequency of GMCs causes constipation. The GMCs generate the afferent signals for intermittent short-lived episodes of abdominal cramping in these disorders. Epigenetic dysregulation due to adverse events in early life is one of the major factors in generating the symptoms of IBS in adulthood.
