Original Abstract of the Article :
The routine use in 500 consecutive patients of a barium enema cannula incorporating stimulating electrodes is described. Barium retention was improved by the electrically maintained contraction of the anal sphincter. The cannula was connected to a battery-powered control unit which provided the stim...See full text at original site

Electrical Stimulation for Anal Sphincter Control: A Novel Approach to Barium Enema Examinations

Barium enemas, like a desert sandstorm, can sometimes be challenging to perform. This study, like a brilliant inventor, explores the use of electrical stimulation to improve anal sphincter control during these examinations. The authors, much like skilled engineers, devised a novel cannula incorporating stimulating electrodes.

A New Path: Electrical Stimulation for Improved Control

The study, like a camel caravan exploring a new route, reveals that electrical stimulation significantly reduced the failure rate of barium enema examinations. This finding, like a well-paved path through the desert, suggests a more comfortable and efficient approach for patients.

A Smoother Journey: Enhancing Barium Enema Examinations

This research highlights the potential of electrical stimulation to improve the comfort and effectiveness of barium enema examinations. This novel technique, like a clever camel rider using a new saddle, offers a more efficient and comfortable experience for patients.

Dr.Camel's Conclusion

This study, like a clever camel rider navigating a challenging terrain, demonstrates the potential of electrical stimulation to improve the accuracy and comfort of barium enema examinations. This innovative approach, like a well-worn path through the desert, promises a smoother and more pleasant experience for patients.
