OUTLINE • DIFINITION ACUTE ABDOMEN • ANATOMY AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGY ABDOMINAL PAIN • ETIOLOGY OF ACUTE ABDOMEN • CLINICAL ASSESSMENT • HISTORY TAKING • PHYSICAL EXAMINATION • LABORATORY INVESTIGATION • IMAGING STUDY • KEY FEATURES OF COMMON CAUSES OF ACUTE ABDOMINAL PAIN • QUESTION
DIFINITIONdiagnosis and treatment immediatelymedical or surgical conditiontimimg 1-4 wk
pathophysiology Anatomy relate to abdominal pain • Peritoneum visceral and parietal peritoneum • abdominal organ intraabdominal and retroperitoneal organ • Abdominal wall
NERVE 1.Parietal peritoneum Abdominal wall inferior epigastric a. somatic sipinal nerve T7-L2 2.Intraabdominal organ Visceral peritoneum celiac trunk , SMA , IMA autonomous system
Type of abdominal pain • Visceral pain • Somatic pain • Refered pain • Migratory pain
Visceral pain abdominal organ • parasympathetic and sympathetic • C-fiber ,slow transmitter • dull and crampy not localized • midline pain (bilaterallity) • Stretching , compression , torsion, distention
Visceral pain foregut epigastium midgut periumbilical hindgut suprapubic
Somatic pain Irritate to Parietal peritoneum A-delta fiber , spinal nerve fast transmitters sharp and exquisite localized peritoneal sign : localized tender , guarding
Migratory pain Acute appendicitis
Migratory pain Peptic ulcer perforate
Refered pain • pain feltat asite distant from a disease process Pathophysiology multiple pain afferents in the posterior horn of spinal cord
Spinal nerve root C4 • Right shoulder diaphragm gall bladder liver capsule peumoperitomeun • Left shoulder diaphragm spleen tail of pancrease stomach splenic flexure of colon
The thoracic affernt T6-T8 • Right scapular gall bladder biliary tree • Left scapular spleen tail of pancrease
Refered pain • Groin/genitalia ureter kidney • Back- midline pancrease duodenum aorta
INFLAMMATION /INFECTION • PERITONEUM • PRIMARY PERITONITIS ; ASCITES • SCONDARY PERITONITIS: HOLLOW VICUS ORGAN PERFORATE • TERTIALY PERITONITIS : TB • B. HOLLOW VICUS ORGAN • APPENDICITIS , CHOLECYSTITIS , GASTROENTERITIS • DIVERTICULITIS, PEPTIC ULCER • C. SOLID VISCERA • PANCREATITIS , HEPATITIS • D. MESENTERY • LYMPADINITIS • E. PELVIC ORGAN • PID , ENDOMETRIOSIS , TUBOOVARIAN ABSCESS
2. MECHANICAL ( OBSTRUCTION /ACUTE DISTENTION) • HOLLOW VISCUS ORGAN • GUT OBSTRUCTION ; HERNIA ,TUMOR INTUSSUSCEPTION • BILIARY TRACT OBSTRUCTION: CALCULI TUMOR • SOLID ORGAN • ACUTE HEPATOMEGALY , SPLENOMAGALY • MESENTERY • OMENTAL TORSION • PELVIC ORGAN • OVARIAN CYST , ECTOPIC PREGNANCY
3. VASCULAR • INTRAPERITONEAL BLEEDING • RUPTURE LIVER AND SPLEEN • RUPTURE AORTA , SPLENIC ANEURYSM • RUPTURE ECTOPIC PREGNANCY • INTRAPERITONEAL ISCHEMIA • MESENTERY THOMBOSIS • HEPATIC INFRACION : TOXIMIA , PURPURA • SPLENIC INFRACTION • OMENATAL INFRACTION
Abdominal pain pathway Intraabdominal organ Parietal peritoneum Somatic pain Visceral pain Refer pain vagus Spinal nerve sympathetic History taking PE investigation Spinothalamic tract Inflammation Infection Obstruction Distention Bleeding infarction
HISTORY TAKING • CLINICAL ASSESSMENT
duration • Site of pain • maximum point of pain • initial location of pain
Nature in onset of pain • Sudden onset hollow viscus organ perforate ischemic process passage stone • Gradual onset inflammmation process
Progression of pain • Intermittent pain Colicky seconds( bowel) minutes (ureteric) tens of minutes (biliary) • Constant pain peptic ulcer, pancreatitis • Subside early colic • More severe late colic
Characteristic of pain • Burning peptic ulcer • Sharp or stabbing ureteric colic • Crampy gut ostruction gastroenteritis
Aggravate or relieve of pain • Posture lying still rolling around • GI function type of food
Associated symptom • Vomitting type of vomitus timing frequent • Anorexia • Bowel habits • fever
Refered pain or radiate pain
HISTORY TAKING age menstruation past illness familial history organ systemic review medication
CLINICAL ASSESSMENT Physical examination
BASIC CONSIDERATION A large number of different structures Small abdominal cavity Pelvic cavity and dome of diaphargm Abdominal wall muscle The brain cannot distinguish depend on tecnique of examination
preparation • The environment warm and private good daylight and oblique • The bed hard bed with a backrest rest head on pillow and flex hip
preparation • Exposure uncover the patients from nipple to knees genitalia and hernia orifices • Get the patients to relax rest his arm on his side breathe regularly and slowly
preparation • The position of the examination right side , hand and forearm horizontal position clean and warm hand short nail
The routine of examination • Inspection • Auscultation • Percussion • palpation
INSPECTATION Look at the whole abdomen symmetry buldging : organomegaly , mass distended : gas , ascitis, fat , mass scaphoid abdomen: malnutrition
inspectation • Scar • Spider nevi , superficial vien dilate • Visible peristalsis • Grey tunner and cullen sign • Hernia • umbilicus
auscultation • Bowels sound (all quadrants) peritalsis ; gurgling noise…mixture gas and air low pitched , every few seconds no bowel sound over a 15-30 seconds paralytic ileus intestinal obtruction : high pitch , freqent • Systolic bruit aortic or iliac aneurysm • Splashing sounds gastric outlet obstruction
