Last Updated: 2024/11/22, In recent years, with reference to animal gastric lavage and human nasal feeding, 19 cases of poisoning in pigs and dogs were treated by gastric lavage and achieved good results. It is reported below for reference. 1 preparation work (1) Baoding: standing or right minister Baoding, piglets and dogs can lift their forelegs and stand up. (2) gastric tube selection: 1.5 × 2m long gastric tube or rigid rubber tube with a diameter of 4mm in length for big pigs, and human catheters for small dogs. The distance from the mouth of the nasal cavity to the xiphoid process is equivalent to that from the mouth to the xiphoid process.

In recent years, with reference to animal gastric lavage and human nasal feeding, 19 cases of poisoning in pigs and dogs were treated by gastric lavage and achieved good results. It is reported below for reference.

1 preparation work

(1) Baoding: when standing or on the right side, piglets and dogs can lift their forelegs and stand up. (2) gastric tube selection: 1.5 × 2m long gastric tube or rigid rubber tube with a diameter of 4mm in length for big pigs, and human catheters for small dogs. First measure the distance from the mouth of the nasal cavity to the xiphoid process, which is equivalent to the distance from the mouth to the body of the stomach, marked with adhesive tape.

2 gastric lavage

2.1 insert the gastric tube head slowly with oil through the nostrils (can also be inserted through the mouth). When the gastric tube reaches the pharynx, it should be gently stimulated to cause swallowing, such as throat paralysis without swallowing action, can be applied directly to the throat later, if there is no resistance to continue to insert, this, it is necessary to connect the enema and the mouth of the gastric tube. Press the ball by hand to send air into the gastric tube, and then release the ball. If the ball cannot be inflated, it has been inserted into the esophagus and can be inserted into the place of adhesive tape, which is equivalent to the position of the gastric tube entering the body of the stomach. Remove the enema and replace it with a funnel.

2.2 gastric lavage (1) the variety and concentration of gastric lavage fluid can be determined according to the poison, and the temperature should be mild. High temperature can easily cause telangiectasia of the digestive tract and promote the absorption of poisons; cold water is irritating to the stomach and had better not be used. If it is impossible to judge what kind of poison bait is accidentally eaten, use warm water to lavage your stomach. (2) after the gastric tube is inserted, the contents of the stomach are extracted and then cleaned. 1000~2000ml gastric juice can be lavaged each time. When giving medicine, the liquid should not be interrupted. When it is almost finished, the funnel should be lowered below the gastric horizontal line, the "siphon" phenomenon should be used to make the gastric lavage fluid flow back, and the right rib should be massaged constantly. If the reflux of gastric lavage fluid is not smooth, the 100ml metal syringe can be used for continuous suction. When the extraction is equivalent to the amount of gastric lavage, it can be reinjected into gastric lavage fluid, and then be extracted for 2 or 3 times, so that the characteristics of suction and injected gastric lavage juice are similar. (3) as poisons can be re-secreted from the gastric mucosa after absorption, and there may be residues of toxins in the stomach wrinkle wall and some parts that are not easy to wash, the gastric tube can be retained for repeated gastric lavage or laxative and antidote administration. Retention force: the mouth of the gastric catheter can be clamped with a clip and fixed on pigs and dogs to prevent slippage and prevent air from entering the stomach from the gastric tube to cause discomfort and vomiting. The author has encountered that due to the slip of the gastric catheter in dogs, gastric juice reflux into the trachea, resulting in respiratory asphyxia and death. During autopsy, gastric lavage fluid was found to flow into the trachea and bronchi.
