GIT APPLIED/CLINICAL ASPECTS We will look at some important
conditions/diseases that can affect GIT. This lecture will introduce you to the
applied/clinical aspects, details of these conditions you will do later.

APPLIED ASPECTS Topics Vomiting Hunger Contraction Gastro Oesophagal Reflux Disorder Peptic Ulcer Jaundice Hepatitis [Viral] Liver Transplant Pancreatitis Celiac Disease [Gluten Entropathy] Irritable Bowel Syndrome Inflammatory Bowel Disease Food Poisoning Traveler's Diarrhea Parasitic Infections of Intestine

VOMITING It is forceful expulsion of gastric contents
through mouth. Major force of expulsion comes from
contraction of diaphragm and abdominal muscles.
There is vomiting center in Medulla, it co-ordinates the act of vomiting.
Contracting diaphragm descends downwards on the stomach.
5
VOMITING (cont) At the same time, abdominal muscles compress
the abdominal cavity and increase the intra-abdominal pressure.
Stomach is squeezed between the diaphragm above and compressed abdominal cavity below.
The gastric contents are forced upwards through relaxed sphincter and esophagus, out through the mouth.
6
CAUSES OF VOMITING Touching the back of throat e.g. seeing
the throat using the tongue depressor.
Distension of stomach.
Increased intracranial pressure e.g. head injury causing intra cerebral hemorrhage.
7
CAUSES OF VOMITING (cont) Motion sickness.
Drugs.
Renal Failure.
Psychogenic e.g. emotional factors
8
HUNGER CONTRACTION Gastric Contraction can sometimes be
felt and may be mildly painful [peristaltic wave].
Hunger Contraction are associated with sensation of hunger and play role in regulation of appetite.
9
Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disorder [GERD] Patient with reflux has persistent
symptoms. It occurs when lower Esophagal
sphincter tone fails to increase when patient is lying down or when intro-abdominal pressure increases.
Patient complains of heart burn.

12
PEPTIC ULCER Duodenal Ulcer [D.U] are more common
than Gastric Ulcer. 10 - 15% of population may suffer from
D.U. Patient complains of epigastric pain,
relationship of pain with food is variable and may not be helpful in diagnosis.
13
PEPTIC ULCER (cont) D.U pain is more when patient is hungry.
If long standing symptoms investigation like test for H.Pylori and Endoscopy can be done.

15
JAUNDICE We have already discussed three types
of Jaundice. (i). Prehepatic or Hemolytic Jaundice (ii). Hepatic e.g. Viral (iii). Post-hepatic or Obstructive e.g. Gall
stones
16
HEPATITIS-VIRAL
17
LIVER TRANSPLANT It is established treatment for number of
diseases. Acute Liver Failure. Chronic Liver Failure.
18
GALL STONES We have already discussed Gall Stones. Ultrasound is helpful in diagnosis. Cholecystectomy – Laparoscopic is
done now in requires 48hours stay in hospital.

24
PANCREATITIS Patient complains of pain in epigastric
region. Pain radiates to back. Acute Pancreatitis can be due to gall
stones, alcohol, viral infection e.g. mums, hyperlipidaemia.
Chronic Pancreatitis can be due to alcohol, hypercalcaemia.
25
PANCREATITIS (cont) Investigation which help in Diagnosis Blood test e.g. Serum Amylase will be
raised. Abdominal ultrasound.
26
Celiac Disease [Gluten Entropathy] We have discussed Celiac Disease.
Jejunal mucosa normal villi
Subtotal villous atrophy in Coeliac disease
27
Irritable Bowel Syndrome It is functional Bowel disorder.
More common in female than male.
Anxiety factor is common.
28
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (cont) Patient gives history of - Abnormal Stool Frequency – more than
3/day. - Abnormal Stool Form – watery, loose or
hard stool. - Feeling of incomplete evacuation. - Passage of mucus. - Abdominal Distension.
29
Inflammatory Bowel Disease [IBD] Two major diseases are- Crohn’s Disease [CD] – it can affect any
part of GIT.- Ulcerative Colitis [UC] – it affects large
intestine.

Parasitic Infections of Intestine GIT Parasites - Entamoeba Histolytica – Amoebiasis - Giardiasis Intestinal Worms - Thread worm – Entrobius Vermicularis - Round worm – Ascaris Lumbricoides - Hook worm – Ancylostoma Duodenal
