The effect of drugs, position of the patient and filling of the stomach on pancreatic sonography.
Using 750 outpatients as our material, the effects of dimethicon , simethicon - pankreatin and lysin-vasopressin, of the position of the patient and of the filling of the stomach with soup on the success of pancreatic ultrasonography were studied. Dimethicon had no, simethicon - pankreatin an almost significant and lysin-vasopressin a highly significant positive effect. Lysin-vasopressin caused several mild adverse reactions. The filling of the stomach with soup combined with erect position was effective in about 3/4 of the cases. Prone position was not usefull.
