Abstract:

Gastrointestinal motility disturbances in critically-ill patients often require treatment with prokinetic drugs. The aetiology of motility disturbances is complex, and involves electrolyte imbalances, hypervolaemia, reduced intestinal secretion, adverse effects of drugs (catecholamines, opioids, or sedatives) and disease- or treatment-related changes of microflora. However, the choice of prokinetics is narrow, and the multiplicity of pathophysiological mechanisms often limits their efficacy. Gastroparesis can be managed with gastrokinetics such as domperidone, metoclopramide and erythromycin. Their choice depends not only on efficacy, but also on adverse effect profile. The arrhythmogenic potential of domperidone limits maximum daily dose and treatment duration. Metoclopramide and erythromycin induce tachyphylaxis, which restricts treatment duration. The combination of metoclopramide and erythromycin serves as rescue therapy in severe gastroparesis. Neostigmine and laxatives are used to manage colonic paralysis, and these treatment options may eventually be extended by drug candidates, such as prucalopride, lubiprostone, and linaclotide, whose utility in the ICU awaits to be evaluated. Neostigmine’s prokinetic efficacy in colonic paralysis is limited, but well documented in patients with acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie syndrome). Care is advocated in dosing because higher doses of neostigmine inhibit motility. Alternative options include osmotic and stimulant laxatives, especially for prophylactic use. The opioid receptor antagonist alvimopan is used for the short-term management of post-operative ileus, while methylnaltrexone is indicated in palliative care and chronic pain management. Since its efficacy in critically-ill patients remains to be proven, the use of methylnaltrexone in the ICU is off-label and requires proper documentation.

Abstract:

Constipation is far more common in palliative care than diarrhoea and results not just from the use of opioids but also from the multifactorial effects of debility secondary to disease. Most palliative care patients will require regular administration of an oral laxative in a dose titrated against response, with the aim of avoiding the use of suppositories or enemas if possible as these are less liked. The lack of clear differences in laxative efficacy means that cost and patient choice are key factors in guiding treatment. Diarrhoea in palliative care most often results from excess laxative or from common infections that can be simply managed. Bowel shortening or diversion causes more resistant diarrhoea. Cytotoxic chemotherapy can lead to diarrhoea either as an adverse effect of treatment or from potentially life-threatening neutropenic colitis.

Abstract:

Right now, more than 2 million girls and women in the United States suffer from purging disorder, an eating disorder characterized by vomiting, misuse of laxatives, diuretics, or other medications to control weight or shape, and nearly half a million boys and men join them. But purging disorder’s status as an “other” eating disorder has left it invisible to all but those who suffer from it. This book provides the go-to resource for accurate, scientifically based information for those who suffer with the illness, their friends and loved ones, health professionals, educators, and anyone interested in learning about this hidden psychiatric illness. This book distinguishes purging disorder from the better-known eating disorders, explains what factors contribute to its unique development and maintenance and what treatments work, and describes outcomes associated with this illness. Topics include the emergence of purging disorder as a “new” eating disorder at the turn of the millennium; cross-cultural presentations of the illness; theories and research findings regarding social, psychological, and biological mechanisms driving this illness; medical complications associated with purging; approaches to assessment and treatment; and information on recovery from 10 weeks to 10 years following diagnosis with purging disorder. Case studies and quotes from those impacted by purging disorder present how the illness affects the lives of real people to underscore the severity, chronicity, and need for greater awareness of this invisible illness.
