[Digestive irrigation, new perspectives].
The hydroelectric and pH alterations that produce the digestive irrigation previous to the surgery, have justified the fulfillment of this study, addressed to design a kind of solution to be used at pediatric patients. It has been used two solutions: one of them proposed by Davis (S_I), and the other (S_II), is Davis' solution modification, in which it is decreased the quantity of polyethylene glycol (PEG-4000) and it is increased the concentration of bicarbonate. The analysis of the results demonstrated the superiority of the second solution avoiding the tendency to the acidosis that show the Davis' solution.
