PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• Diverticula are saccular dilations or outpouchings of the mucosa that develop in the colon. Multiple
noninflamed diverticula are present in diverticulosis. Diverticulitis is inflammation of the diverticula,
resulting in perforation into the peritoneum. Clinically, diverticular disease covers a spectrum from
asymptomatic, uncomplicated diverticulosis to diverticulitis with complications such as perforation,
abscess, fistula, and bleeding.
• Diverticula are common, especially in older adults, but most people never develop diverticulitis.45
Diverticula may occur anywhere in the GI tract but are most commonly found in the left (descending,
sigmoid) colon. The etiology of diverticulosis of the sigmoid colon is thought to be associated with high
luminal pressures from a deficiency in dietary fiber intake. The disease is more prevalent in Western,
industrialized populations that consume diets low in fiber and high in refined carbohydrates. Diverticula
are uncommon in vegetarians. Inadequate dietary fiber slows transit time, and more water is absorbed
CLINICAL MANIFESTATION
• Left lower quadrant abdominal tenderness
• Low-grade fever
• Palpable mass
• Distressed appearance
• Muscle spasms
• Abdominal tympany
RISK FACTORS
• Smoking
• Low-fiber diet
• Obesity
• Sedentary lifestyle
• Advancing age (more common in over age 40)
• Constipation
• Previous Diverticula
PICTURES
LAB AND DIAGNOSTICS
• • History and physical examination
• • Testing of stool for occult blood
• • Barium enema
• • Sigmoidoscopy
• • Colonoscopy
• • CBC
• • Urinalysis
• • Blood culture
• • CT scan with oral contrast
• • Abdominal x-ray
• • Chest x-ray
NUTRITION
• High-fiber diet
• Dietary fiber supplements
• Stool softeners
• Clear liquid diet
• Mineral oil
MEDICATIONS
• Stool softeners
• Anticholinergics
• Clear liquid diet
• Oral antibiotics
• Mineral oil
• Bulk laxatives
Acute Care: Diverticulitis
• Antibiotic therapy
• NPO status
• IV fluids
• Bed rest
• NG suction
• Surgery
NURSING INTERVENTIONS
• -Antibiotic therapy
-NPO status
-IV fluids
-Bed rest
-NG suction
-Surgery
*Possible resection of involved colon for obstruction of hemorrhage
*Possible temporary colostomy
PATIENT EDUCATION
• -Disorder, diagnostic testing, and treatment, including the use of antibiotics and the need for a high-fiber
diet
-bowel and dietary habits (in uncomplicated diverticulosis), including foods allowed and those to be
avoided
-use of bowel rest with acute episodes
-prescribed medications, including the use of stool softeners and bulk-forming agents to promote bowel
elimination; duration of antibiotic therapy, if prescribed
-possible need for surgery if diverticulitis occurs, and appropriate preoperative teaching
-incisional or ostomy care as necessary
-The need to remain active overall but restrict activity when diverticulitis occurs
-Importance of continued follow-up and adherence to treatment regimen to prevent complications.

  • 1. DIVERTICULITIS TIFFANY NARANJO VANESSA PITTMAN MELISSA GONZALEZ NICOLE CARVER CLAUDIUS ALEXANDER
  • 2. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY • Diverticula are saccular dilations or outpouchings of the mucosa that develop in the colon. Multiple noninflamed diverticula are present in diverticulosis. Diverticulitis is inflammation of the diverticula, resulting in perforation into the peritoneum. Clinically, diverticular disease covers a spectrum from asymptomatic, uncomplicated diverticulosis to diverticulitis with complications such as perforation, abscess, fistula, and bleeding. • Diverticula are common, especially in older adults, but most people never develop diverticulitis.45 Diverticula may occur anywhere in the GI tract but are most commonly found in the left (descending, sigmoid) colon. The etiology of diverticulosis of the sigmoid colon is thought to be associated with high luminal pressures from a deficiency in dietary fiber intake. The disease is more prevalent in Western, industrialized populations that consume diets low in fiber and high in refined carbohydrates. Diverticula are uncommon in vegetarians. Inadequate dietary fiber slows transit time, and more water is absorbed

  • 8. MEDICATIONS • Stool softeners • Anticholinergics • Clear liquid diet • Oral antibiotics • Mineral oil • Bulk laxatives Acute Care: Diverticulitis • Antibiotic therapy • NPO status • IV fluids • Bed rest • NG suction • Surgery
  • 9. NURSING INTERVENTIONS • -Antibiotic therapy -NPO status -IV fluids -Bed rest -NG suction -Surgery *Possible resection of involved colon for obstruction of hemorrhage *Possible temporary colostomy
  • 10. PATIENT EDUCATION • -Disorder, diagnostic testing, and treatment, including the use of antibiotics and the need for a high-fiber diet -bowel and dietary habits (in uncomplicated diverticulosis), including foods allowed and those to be avoided -use of bowel rest with acute episodes -prescribed medications, including the use of stool softeners and bulk-forming agents to promote bowel elimination; duration of antibiotic therapy, if prescribed -possible need for surgery if diverticulitis occurs, and appropriate preoperative teaching -incisional or ostomy care as necessary -The need to remain active overall but restrict activity when diverticulitis occurs -Importance of continued follow-up and adherence to treatment regimen to prevent complications.
