Clinical Study of Octreotide on Intestinal Obstruction

Objective:To investigate the effects of Octreotide on intestinal obstruction.Methods:One hundred and fifty patients suffering from intestinal obstruction were randomly divided into control group and experimental group.The patients in the control group were treated with routine therapy including gastrointestinal decompression,intravenous replacement of fluid and electrolytes,total parenteral nutrition and antibiotics.The patients in the experimental group received hypodermic injection Octreotide(q8h) plus routine therapy.Results:The clinical symptoms were significantly improved in the experimental group,the average volume of gastrointestinal decompression reduced in experimental group compared to the control group(256±126) ml/d vs(578±189) ml/d(P0.O1) .Conclusions:Octreotide combined with routine treatment is an effective method to treat intestinal obstruction.
