Intussusception in infants and children: feasibility of ambulatory management.

Abstract:

:To evaluate the ambulatory management of ileo-colic intussusception in infants and children, a retrospective study over 3 years of 113 children treated for ileo-colic intussusception in a paediatric emergency department was undertaken with the aim of shortening the length of stay. A total of 113 children aged 10 days to 9 years (median 12 months) were treated for intussusception between January 1993 and December 1996. None had septic shock or peritoneal aeric effusion. Barium enema reduction was attempted in all patients. Successful reduction rate was 81%. Fifty patients (44.2%) were completely ambulatory managed and 42 were hospital-supervised after successful enema reduction. Twenty-one children underwent laparotomy after failure of enema. With the ambulatory device, costs were reduced ($1000/case) compared with conventional in-patient treatment. Outpatient treatment of acute ileo-colic intussusception is secure and reduces costs. It depends on the willingness of the medical team but requires simultaneous adaptation of hospital funding to promote this trend.
