[The use of the Dreimlich probe for obtaining samples in a postoperative study of biliopancreatic function in cholecystectomized patients].
We have performed a clinical study involving patients with symptomatic gallstones and indications for surgery, to analyze the biliary and pancreatic response to the quality of dietary fat (degree of unsaturation). As part of the investigative method, we have designed a clinical protocol adapted to the needs of the study, in this respect, we have used gastrointestinal intubation to obtain independent samples of gastric and duodenal juices, by means of a long nasoduodenal tube or a modified Dreimlich tube, placed manually in the intraoperative period, during the cholecystectomy. The characteristics of the tube are such that its manipulation is difficult, which led to situations postoperatively and during sampling, which may alter or invalidate the obtained drainage material. In the present study we define the protocol and the phases of the investigation, and we reflect on the usefulness of the Dreimlich tube as a method, analyzing its advantages and disadvantages.
