This document discusses several disorders of the small intestine, including inflammation, infection, malabsorption, and obstruction or perforation. It covers the anatomy, physiology and risk factors. Specific conditions like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are examined in terms of their causes, symptoms, diagnostic tests and medical or surgical management. Nursing assessments and care plans are also outlined to address needs like pain management, nutrition, and anxiety reduction. A clinical study abstract analyzes symptoms, etiologies and diagnostic methods for small intestine diseases.
Intestinal obstruction is a significant or mechanical blockage of intestine that occurs when food or stool can not move through the intestine.
These obstruction may be complete or partial.
Bowel obstruction, also known as intestinal obstruction, is a mechanical or functional obstruction of the intestines which prevents the normal movement of the products of digestion. Either the small bowel or large bowel may be affected. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, vomiting, bloating and not passing gas.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

RAKCON
2. INTRODUCTION
In all ages group, a fast placed lifestyle, high level of stress,
irregular eating habits, and insufficient intake of water and minerals
and lack of fibers and water, and lack of daily exercise contribute to
GI disorder. There is a growing understanding of the biopsychosocial
implications of GI disease. That is, the mind & emotion can have a
profound impact on the GI system. Nurse can have an impact on
their GI disorders by identifying behavior patterns that put patients
risk, by educating the public about prevention and management and
by helping those affect to improve their condition and present the
complication.
4. PHYSIOLOGY
• Stomach food duodenum small intestine.
• Bile & enzymes from liver, pancreases& gall bladder help in further
breakdown.
• Ileum& jejunum fuctions: absorb nutrient from blood stream.
• Once the digested food leaves ileum, more than 95% nutrients of food
is absorbed.
5. SMALL BOWEL INFLAMMATION
• DEFINITION:
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) represents a group of intestinal
disorder that cause prolonged inflammation of the digestive tract .
Many disorder are included in this IBD umbrella term.
6. ThemostcommondiseaseareCROHN`SDISEASE&ULCERATIE
DISEASE.
• CROHN`S DISEASE
• Crohn`s disease is usually first
diagnosed in young adult &
adolescents. It causes inflammation
in small intestine which leads to
abdominal pain, fatigue.
•
• ULCERATIVE
DISEASE
• A Chronic, inflammatory
bowel disease that causes
inflammation in large
intestine.
• It is usually only in the
innermost lining of large
intestinal ( colon & rectum) .
7. CROHN`S DISEASE
Crohn’s disease is a sub acute and
chronic inflammation of the GI
tract wall that Extends through all
layers. I
t most commonly occurs in distil
ileum and to a lesser degree the
ascending colon. It is characterised
by periods of remission and
exacerbation
*/
9. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
The disease process begins with edema and thickening of the
mucosa.
Ulcers begin to appear on the inflamed mucosa. The clusters of ulcers tend
to take an classic cobblestone appearance as the lesions are not in
continuous contact with one another.
Fistulas ,fissures And abscesses foam as the
inflammation extends into the peritoneum.
As the disease advances, the bowel wall thickens And becomes fibrotic and the intestinal
lumen narrows.
12. COMPLICATIONS
Obstructions or strUcture formation ,Perianal
disease, Fluid electrolyte imbalance.
The most common type of fistula caused by
crohn’s disease is enterocutaneous fistula..
Patients with Crohn’s disease are also at an
increased risk of colon cancer.
13. ASSESSMENT
• PATIENT & FAMILY HISTORY
• Abdominal pain, diarrhoea, Weight loss, fever
• PHYSICAL ASSESSMENT
• Distention of abdomen, guarding, bowel sound, ulceration or
fistula in perianal area
• LABORATORY ASSESSMENT
• CBC
• Chemistry
• Genetic testing
• Anti saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies( ASCA)
• IMAGING ASSESSMENT
• Barium swallow or enema
• Ultrasound
• MRI
• CT
14. MEDICAL MANAGMENT
• Treatment of CD : location of inflammation
,severity of disease, complications,& response
of patient .
pharmalogic therapy :
AMINOSALICYLATES -Sulfasalazine
effective for mild and moderate inflammation
15. Surgical management
• Ultimately 75% patients of Crohn’s disease undergo
surgery within 10 years of diagnosis and Between 25%
and 60% require further repeat surgery within the
same time frame.
• intestinal transplant.
16. SMALL BOWEL INFECTION
• Numerous bacteria,
virus and parasites
causes diseases in
the intestine..
25. DIAGNOSTIC TEST
White blood cell count
Serum electrolyte study
X ray
Abdominal ultrasound
CT scan
MRI
Peritonial aspiration and culture sensitivity studies of aspirated fluid.
26. COMPLICATION
• Inflammation is most commonly not localised And the
entire abdominal cavity shows evidence of widespread
infection.
• Shock may result from septicemia or hypovolemia.
• The inflammatory process may cause intestinal obstruction,
primarily from the development of bowel adhesions .
32. Management
MEDICAL
FLUID:
• ANALGESICS:
• INTUBATION & SUCTION: I
• OXYGEN THERAPY:
• ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY:
• SURGICAL
• Surgical objectives include
removing the infected
material and Correcting the
cause. Surgical treatment is
directed towards excision,
resection with or without
anastamosis, repair and
damage .
37. PATHOPHYISOLOGY
Conditions that cause
malabsorption can be
grouped into the following
categories:
Mucosal (transport)
Disorders causing
genralised malabsorption
Infectious diseases
causing generalised
malabsorption
Lumenal disorders causing
malabsorption
Post operative
malabsorption
Disorders that cause
malabsorption of specific
nutrients
39. DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
• Stool studies
• Endoscopy with biopsy of mucosa
• Biopsy of small intestine
• Ultrasound studies
• CT scan
• X-ray
• CBC count
40. ASSESSEMENT
• Nutritional history
• Serum albumin
• Transferrin
• RBC & WBC count
• Serum electrolyte value
• Physical signs of poor nutritional intake
• Exact weight
41. MANAGEMENT
MEDICAL MANAGEMENT SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
Primary disease states may be
treated surgically as well.
Administration of supplements .
Dietary therapy
Folic acid supplements
Antibiotics
Antidiarrheal drugs
Parenteral therapy
42. Small bowel obstruction
• DEFINITION:: Intestinal obstruction exists when blockage prevents the
normal flow of intestinal contents through the intestinal tract. The
obstruction can be partial or complete. Its severity depends upon the site
of obstruction
• RISK FACTORS
• Hernia
• Crohn’s disease
• Abdominal, joint or spine surgery
• Swallowing a foreign body
• Decreased blood supply to small bowel
44. DIAGNOSIS
• Diagnosis is based on
symptoms described
previously and on
imaging studies.
• Abdominal xray
• CT findings
• Laboratory studies
(electrolyte studies and
CBC count)
COMPLICATIONS:
• Tissue death – Lack of
blood supply leads to
dead intestinal wall
• Infection – peritonitis
45. ASSESSMENT
• History collection
• Past medical and surgical history
• Color and characteristics of vomitus
• Stool examination for occult blood
• Assess vitals
• Assess I/O
46. MANAGEMENT
• MEDICAL MANAGEMENT:
• Decompression of bowel
through a nasogastric tube
• Enema can be given to
stimulate bowel movement
• Antibiotics, antiemetics,
analgesics
• SURGICAL
MANAGEMENT:
• Laparoscopic surgery
• Exploratory
laparotomy
• Bowel resection
47. PERFORATION
• Intestinal perforation, defined as a loss of continuity of the bowel wall
, is a potentially devastating complication that may result from a
variety of disease processes.

53. ASSESSMENT
• History of abdominal trauma
• History of pain, vomiting, hiccups
• Assess abdomen for any external signs of Injury, abrasion,
echymosis
• Assess breathing pattern
• Assess for tenderness
• Assess bowel sound
54. MANAGEMENT
MEDICAL MANAGEMENT
• Patient kept NPO
• Crystalloid therapy
• IV administration of
antibiotics
SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Treatment for intestinal
perforation is only
surgical
• Conventional laparotomy
• Laproscopic laparotomy
55. NURSING CARE PLAN
• NURSING CARE PLAN:
• PLANNING & GOALS:
• The major goals for the patient include relief of abdominal pain
and cramping, prevention of fluid volume deficit, maintenance of
optimal nutrition and weight, avoidance of fatigue, reduction of
anxiety
• NURSING DIAGNOSIS 1: risk for deficient fluid volume related
to vomiting and dehydration
• INTERVENTIONS:
• Maintain fluid volume: nurse keeps an accurate record of intake
of oral and IV fluid and output .
• The nurse monitors daily weight for fluid gains or losses and assess the
patient for signs of fluid volume deficit ( dry skin , oliguria )
• The nurse initiates measures to decrease diarrhoea ( Dieatry restrictions,
antidiarrheal agents)
56. NURSING DIAGNOSIS 2
• NURSING DIAGNOSIS 2:Acute pain related to increased
peristalsis and GI inflammation
• INTERVENTIONS:
• Relieving pain:Assess the character of pain and ask
about its onset
• Administer anticholinergic medication 30 minutes before meal
as prescribed to decrease intestinal motility
• Administer analgesics as prescribed for pain
• Position changes, diversional therapy and prevention of fatigue
are useful for reducing pain.
57. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
• NURSING DIAGNOSIS 4: Activity intolerance related to
generalized weakness
• Promoting rest: The nurse recommends intermittent rest
period during the day
• The nurse restrict or schedule Activities to conserve energy
And reduce the metabolic rate
• Nurse encourages activity within limits of patient’s capacity
• The nurse suggests bedrests to the patient who is febrile
58. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
• NURSING DIAGNOSIS 4: Anxiety related to impending surgery
• Reduce anxiety: the nurse tailors information about possible
impending surgery to the patients level of understanding and desire
for detail.
• If surgery is planned pictures and illustrations help explain the
surgical procedure .
59. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
• NURSING DIAGNOSIS 5: Imbalanced nutrition, less than body
requirement related to dietary restrictions come on nausea
and malabsorption
• INTERVENTIONS:
• Maintaining optimal nutrition: Parenteral nutrition is used for
example in cases of severe cases of IBD
• The nurse maintains an accurate record of intake and output of fluid
as well as weights daily
• Blood glucose level is monitored every six hours
• The nurse notes Intolerance if the patient exhibits nausea, vomiting,
abdominal distention
60. CLINICAL RESEARCH
ABSTRACT:
AIM: To evaluate the major clinical symptom,
etiology and diagnostic method in patients with
primary small intestinal disease in order to
improve the diagnosis .
METHODS:
A total of 309 cases with primary small intestinal
disease were reviewd and the major clinical symptoms,
etiology, and diagnosis ,methods were analyzed.
61. RESULTS:
THE MAJOR CLINICAL SYMPTOMS INCLUDED ABDOMINAL PAIN(71%),
ABDOMINA MASS (14%), VOMITING(10%), MALENA (10%), AND
FEVER((9%). THE MOST COMMON DISEASE WERE MAIGNANT TUMOR
(40%). DUODENAL DISEASE WAS INVOLVED IN 36% OF THE PATIENTS
WITH PRIMARY SMALL INTESTINAL DISEASES,.
CONCLUSION: abdominal pain is the most common clinical
symptom in patients with primary small intestinal disease.
