Video Summary
The session reviews key aspects of gastrointestinal (GI) anatomy and physiology, particularly focusing on small intestinal structure and its functions, such as nutrient absorption in the jejunum and bile acid absorption in the ileum. GI motility abnormalities, particularly in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU), are discussed, highlighting the phases of motility and the impact of both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The presentation also addresses the effect of various medications on GI motility and circulation during enteral nutrition. Key ICU conditions like stress ulcers, dysbiosis, necrotizing enterocolitis, esophageal atresia, pyloric stenosis, and duodenal atresia are discussed, including their diagnostic features and management strategies. Emphasis is placed on recognizing critical conditions like intussusception and midgut volvulus. Additionally, assessment and management of significant GI bleeding, pancreatitis, and abdominal compartment syndrome are explored, focusing on diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols.
