What to Expect From Your Barium Enema
你对钡灌肠能期待什么
Introduction
So you’re going to have a barium enema! Relax. Though most people think a barium enema (BE) is an extreme procedure, the truth is that it’s not. Rather, it is a simple fluoroscopic test used to study the large bowel, or colon. There are few complications, and you’ll be able to return home or to work immediately after the procedure.
介绍
所以你就要进行钡灌肠了！放轻松。尽管大多数人认为钡灌肠是一种极端的手术，但事实并非如此。相反，它是一种简单的透视检查法，用于研究大肠或结肠。其并发症很少，您可以在手术后立即回家或工作。
What’s Involved
The procedure is simplicity itself. First, you lie face-down on the X-ray table. A technologist then inserts an enema tip into your rectum and inflates a balloon at the end of the enema tube. This causes the rectum to distend, making you feel as if you need to defecate. Knowing that this is a false sensation, you will easily be able to ignore it.
涉及内容
该手术本身就是简单性。首先，您面朝下趴在X射线台上。然后，技术专家将灌肠尖端插入您的直肠，并在灌肠管末端用一个气球往里充气。这会导致直肠膨胀，让您感觉好像需要排便一样。不知您已经知道了这是一种错误的感觉，就会很容易忽略它。
Now the radiologist opens the valve on the tube coming from the barium bag. With the introduction of the barium inside you, the feeling of urgency will increase. Continue to ignore it. Using fluoroscopy, the radiologist can now see the end of the large bowel, where the cramping occurs. This feeling should ease quickly. If it doesn’t, barium may have to be expelled from the colon and the colon refilled. It may be necessary to inject glucagon, a bowel relaxant, through a 25 gauge needle into a vein in your arm.
现在放射科医生打开来自钡袋连着的的管子上的开关。随着钡引入体内，前面的紧迫感会增加。继续无视它。使用透视，放射科医生现在可以看到大肠的末端，痉挛就是在那里发生的。这种感觉应该会很快得到缓解。如果没有，可能钡就需要从结肠中排出来然后再重新填满结肠。可能需要通过25号针头将胰高血糖素（一种肠松弛剂）注射到您的手臂静脉中。
During this time, feel free to chat with the radiologist and technologist. Maintain a positive attitude. Tell a few jokes.
在此期间，请随意与放射科医生和专家聊天。保持积极的心情。讲几个笑话。
The radiologist will take several “spot films” of the fluoroscopy. These will become a part of your medical record and used to decide if surgery is necessary. And that’s all!
放射科医生将在现场拍摄打印几张透视图。这些将成为您医疗记录的一部分，如果需要手术的话，它们将会被用来作为参考。仅此而已！
Afterwards
术后
The balloon will be deflated, the enema tip removed, and, after a quick trip to the bathroom, you may get dressed and resume your normal activities.
气球里的气将被撒掉，灌肠尖也会被取下，然后，在厕所里迅速解决一下后，穿好衣服您就可以返回到正常活动中去了。
Privacy
Traditionally, such sensitive medical procedures have been held confidential between patient and doctor. The Freedom of Medical Information Act of 2014, however, changed all that. You should be aware that detailed information about your enema will be posted on the world wide web, including X-rays, photographic stills, and streaming video of the procedure from start to finish You should be prepared for a certain amount of razzing (including, in many cases, practical jokes!) from your family and friends.
隐私
传统上，这种敏感的医疗程序属于医患之间的保密内容。但是，2014年的《医学信息自由法》发布之后，您应该知道，您的灌肠资料会被详细地发布在网上，您应该准备好接受一定程度的骚扰（恶作剧多数情况来自家人和朋友！）。
In Conclusion …
But in the final analysis, isn’t your health all that really matters?
综上……
但归根到底，您的健康真的相当重要，不是吗？
*本系列小说发表于2002年，所以《医学信息自由法》在现实中并不存在。
