1.Methods Gastric tonometry balloon was placed through nasal way for the measurement of PCO_2,which was used in the Henderson-Hasselbach equation to calculate the pHi. pHi≤ 7.32 was used to differentiate between normal and low pHi.
3.The treatment for peptic ulcer disease complicated with gastric outlet obstruction is either endoscopic balloon dilatation, stent implantation, or surgery, which may carry high morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients.
4.18 cases of cirrhosis with esophageal and gastric fundus varices hemorrhage who had been controled by pituitrin and (or) balloon temponade were treated bolusly with sandostatin 0. 1mg and maintained persistently at a dosage of 0. 05mg/h.
5.It is an excellent alternative choice other than balloon dilatation, stent implantation, or surgery for critically ill patients with delayed gastric emptying.
6.Microwave tissue coagulation via endoscope combined with rod dilation and self-help dilation with balloon foley catheter in the treatment of pertinacity anastomotic-stenosis after esophageal and/or gastric cardiac cancer operation
