[The motor activity of the gastrointestinal tract in acute appendicitis].
From study of electrogastrograms in 92 patients with acute appendicitis before and in various periods after appendectomy conducted under local or halothane nitrous-oxide-oxygen anesthesia, the authors conclude that electrogastrography may be used in complex with other methods for prognosticating the possibility of the occurrence of postoperative paresis. They point to the preventive significance of general anesthesia in the development of postoperative pareses. Percutaneous electrostimulation had a favourable effect in 12 patients with paresis developing after appendectomy.
