Abstract
Introduction: Intussusception is a prevalent paediatric emergency condition. The standard of care involves the reduction using air or fluid enema is considered a safe procedure. Sedation-induced muscle relaxation thus optimising the treatment. We present a comprehensive 6- year study involving non sedative reduction (NSR) versus sedative reduction (SR) utilising ketamine and midazolam.
Materials and methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 2017 and July 2023 in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A total of 85 children diagnosed with intussusception underwent hydrostatic reduction, which employed water-soluble contrast administered into the rectum. Cases that were unsuccessful in reduction underwent immediate surgical intervention.
Results: Among the 85 children with intussusception underwent reduction, 22 children underwent the SR procedure and 63 underwent NSR procedure. We found a successful outcome in 17 cases (77%) of SR procedure with one recurrent and the other five (23%) got surgical reduction such as anastomosis resection (3 cases) due to Meckel- Diverticula. On the other hand, we found 24 successful cases (38.0%) in NSR procedure with one recurrent after case. 39 others who failed with NSR continued to surgical reduction. Manual reduction was done for 31 patients with one case mortality due to pulmonary bleeding. Anastomosis resection (4 cases) and, stoma (4 cases) were decided for others surgical reduction. The relative risk (RR) on this study was 2.02 (p value < 0.05, CI 95%).
Conclusion: Implementation of the SR procedure may reduce surgery rates in paediatric intussusception, thereby enhancing patient management. Furthermore, the success rate of hydrostatic reduction higher in under sedation procedure. We contribute to evolve insight of non-operative approaches of paediatric intussusception management, particularly in the Yogyakarta.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1890 this journal originated as the Journal of the Straits Medical Association. With the formation of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), the Journal became the official organ, supervised by an editorial board. Some of the early Hon. Editors were Mr. H.M. McGladdery (1960 - 1964), Dr. A.A. Sandosham (1965 - 1977), Prof. Paul C.Y. Chen (1977 - 1987). It is a scientific journal, published quarterly and can be found in medical libraries in many parts of the world. The Journal also enjoys the status of being listed in the Index Medicus, the internationally accepted reference index of medical journals. The editorial columns often reflect the Association''s views and attitudes towards medical problems in the country. The MJM aims to be a peer reviewed scientific journal of the highest quality. We want to ensure that whatever data is published is true and any opinion expressed important to medical science. We believe being Malaysian is our unique niche; our priority will be for scientific knowledge about diseases found in Malaysia and for the practice of medicine in Malaysia. The MJM will archive knowledge about the changing pattern of human diseases and our endeavours to overcome them. It will also document how medicine develops as a profession in the nation. We will communicate and co-operate with other scientific journals in Malaysia. We seek articles that are of educational value to doctors. We will consider all unsolicited articles submitted to the journal and will commission distinguished Malaysians to write relevant review articles. We want to help doctors make better decisions and be good at judging the value of scientific data. We want to help doctors write better, to be articulate and precise.
