'''Historical data and physical examination findings can help initial characterization of the GI pathology in the vomiting patient.'''
<br>
<FlashCard questions="2">
|q1= Match the color and content of the vomitus with the likely location of GI pathology and any possible characterization of the problem.
Vomitus: White or clear foamy; Blood streaked white liquid; Dark ‘coffee grounds’; Yellow liquid;
Green liquid; Dark brown fetid liquid; Bright red bloody liquid
Possible location: Stomach; Upper duodenum; Lower duodenum/ileus; Upper ileum
Potential pathology: Acute onset; Intestinal obstruction; Ulceration
|a1= White or clear foamy: stomach; typically acute. Blood streaked white liquid: gastric irritation from vomiting. Dark ‘coffee grounds’: pathologic gastric bleeding, ulceration; metabolic cause possible. Yellow liquid: stomach, digested reflux bile; not acute; metabolic cause possible. Green liquid: upper duodenum, reflux of bile; ileus/obstruction; typically acute. Dark brown fetid liquid: lower small bowel; ileus/total obstruction. Bright red bloody liquid: gastric hemorrhage; acute bleed; ulceration.
|l1= Replace text with name and subsection of relevant WikiVet page if in existence eg. Feather - Anatomy & Physiology#Structure & Function
|q2= Complete the chart above (Localization of vomiting) with the following options (use each once only): peripheral receptor input; gastric atony; gastric/esophageal reflux; GDV; pyloric outflow obstruction; gastric/upper duodenal ileus; or outflow obstruction.
|a2= Retching with abdominal palpation: Peripheral receptor input. Passive efforts; no abdominal contractions: Gastric/esophageal reflux. Vomiting undigested food (≤6 hours): Gastric atony, pyloric obstruction. Projectile force of vomiting: Pyloric/upper duodenal ileus or outflow obstruction. Non-productive vomiting efforts: GDV.
|l2= Replace text with name and subsection of relevant WikiVet page if in existence eg. Feather - Anatomy & Physiology#Structure & Function
