UGIS Flashcards
The size, shape, and position of the stomach depend on (1) and vary with (2) and (3)
- body habitus
- posture
- amount of stomach contents
Different body habitus and percentage
Hypersthenic (5%)
Sthenic (50%)
Hyposthenic (35%)
Asthenic (10%)
When identifying the types of stomach, always take note of these two stomach anatomy
- Incisuer angularis/ angular notch
- Pylorus/ pylori bulb
Tyeps of stomach
- Eutonic
- Hypotonic
- Steer Horn
Eutonic stomach common to what body habitus?
Sthenic
Hypotonic stomach common to what body habitus?
Asthenic and hyposthenic
Steer horn stomach common to what body habitus?
Sthenic and some hyposthenic
Pylorus and IA are at the same level
Eutonic
Pylorus is above the IA
Hypotonic
IA is above the pylorus
Steer Horn
Subtypes of stomach
- Transverse
- Infantile
- Cascades
Stomach subtype common to hypersthenic habitus
Transverse
Stomach lies horizontally in relationship w LA of of body
Transverse
Fundus is at the level of the body
Transverse
Stomach subtype common to infants
Infantile
Pylorus is behind the body
Infantile
Oblique or lat posn is use especially in spot-film
Infantile
Common to Sthenic or Hyposthenic habitus
Cascades
Fundus fills first and spills over
Cascades
Most uncommon subtype of stomach
Cascades
Stomach moves posteriorly and superiorly due to abdominal pressure and presence of liver superiorly; movement is more to the left
UGIS Prone position
RP when in prone position (UGIS)
est 2.5” from vertebral column
Stomach bn mammary lines;
fundus= within L mammary line;
pylorus= at R mammary line
UGIS Supine posn
Stomach moves toward anthrax inferiorly and anteriorly, and contect of stomach is deposited within antra portion of stomach
