There are two types of enemas; high (large-volume) and low enemas. Enemas are administered by registered and experienced nurses. As a rule, the choice of method rests with the treating physician.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As far as the low enema is concerned, the special natural solution is inserted into the rectum by slow injection through a nozzle (the component at the far end of the medical apparatus), while as far as the high (large-volume) enema is concerned the solution is introduced through a special tube (catheter).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of administering an enema is peristalsis of the intestine in order to promote the evacuation of its content. The special natural solution injected into the rectum breaks the mass of faeces, smooths the wall of the rectum, and triggers the defecation reflex. Enema administration is carried out at the patient\u2019s home or place of residence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a rule, the service is provided to the patient on the same day. In some cases, it may be arranged for the the following day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The expected duration of enema administration varies depending on several factors such as the patient\u2019s cooperation with the nurse. As a rule, this procedure is easy, fast and performed responsibly by experienced nurses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, the patient may experience mild pain during the insertion of the nozzle or the catheter. Under no circumstances will unnecessary discomfort be caused to the patient, other than that of the inherent discomfort that may occur due to the insertion of the nozzle or catheter into the patient\u2019s rectum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indications for the administration of enemas:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Chronic constipation or after 2 consecutive days without emptying<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Before bowel endoscopy or other diagnostic tests<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Before surgery<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The time required for the enema to take effect varies depending on the patient\u2019s condition (whether they are bedridden or able to walk) and the number of days since their last bowel movement. In some cases, it may take effect immediately while the nurse is still present or during the next few hours, or at some point during the next 24 hours.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1573538891982{margin-top: -40px !important;margin-bottom: 10vh !important;}&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_gradient_switch=&#8221;no&#8221; row_reverse_mobile=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_disable_overflow=&#8221;0&#8243;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1497520246521{padding-top: 0px !important;}&#8221; offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-12<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":""},"class_list":["post-9353","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9353"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9353\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9494,"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9353\/revisions\/9494"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maltezosnfu.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
