How is monitoring done for stomach wash?(a) Air insufflation while listening to the stomach(b) Auscultation(c) Patting the stomach(d) UltrasoundI have been asked this question during an interview.My question is taken from Intravenous Cannulae, Stomach Wash Tubes, Infusion Pumps v/s Syringe Pumps in section Gastroenterology of Clinical Science

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) Air insufflation while LISTENING to the stomach

To EXPLAIN I would say: Air insufflation is the process in which air is filled in the cavity and then the cavity is monitored. For stomach wash, the ABDOMINAL area is filled with air and then the stomach SOUNDS are HEARD. This ensures that the tube is in the correct place.
