Abstract
Objective To explore the effect of modified anal injection on preventing fecal incontinence caused by glycerol enema and reliving constipation in elderly orthopedic patients. Methods A total of 78 aged patients with constipation was selected and divided into experimental group (38 cases, modified anal injection enema method) and control group (40 cases, traditional enema anus method) according to the random number table method. And then, we compared the situation of fecal incontinence and relieving constipation. Results In the control group, there were 10 patients with fecal incontinence, while there was no case of fecal incontinence in the experimental group, it was statistically significant between them (P<0.01). After using the enema, there were 14 ineffective cases in the control group and 5 ineffective cases in the experimental group, and the differences were statistically significant between the two groups (P<0.05). The effect in the experimental group was better than that in the control group. Conclusions Modified anal injection enema can prevent fecal incontinence caused by enema and relieve constipation in elderly orthopedic patients.
