Symptoms and treatment of enterospasm in children?

1、 The first level of treatment is to comfort the child, shake the child, reduce environmental noise, and cover the baby's abdomen with a hot water bag; Support and care for parents; Can take traditional Chinese medicine or dimethylsilicone oil. Some traditional Chinese medicine has antispasmodic effect. After taking the powder of chamomile, Verbena, licorice, fennel, fennel and mint for 7 days, the intestinal spasm was improved, but the number of night wakes did not decrease. Dimethylsiloxane is a kind of non absorbent drug, which can make bubbles fuse or disperse by changing the surface tension of bubbles, and promote the gas discharge without side effects on human body. Try to use it to reduce gut gas. But the research results about it are not consistent. One quarter to two thirds of the children's symptoms were improved, but there was no significant difference compared with placebo. Other drugs that reduce intestinal gas, such as activated carbon α- Galactosidase can adsorb gas or help digest high cellulose food, reduce fermentation gas production, but the curative effect on enterospasm is still uncertain.

2、 The second level of treatment is drug treatment. The muscarinic receptor of smooth muscle can be blocked by antispasmodic drugs (such as ceturonium), and the spasm of smooth muscle can be relieved by direct action on smooth muscle. It can be used as an anticholinergic drug. It has atropine like antispasmodic effect, and has a certain central stabilizing effect. It has a certain curative effect in the treatment of infantile enterospasm. However, recent studies have found that infants under 6 months of age can have apnea, which limits the use of this drug. Up to now, there is no completely effective drug to treat enterospasm.

3、 The third level of treatment changes diet and / or medication. Breastfeeding mothers do not eat milk, dairy products, fish and eggs; The formula of soy milk or casein hydrolysate given to the artificially fed infants can significantly improve the intestinal spasm of infants. For CMPI induced enterospasm, 71% - 88% of children's symptoms were improved after removing milk protein and switching to soybean milk or hydrolyzed protein. Due to the side effects of drug therapy (such as bicycloamine hydrochloride), and sometimes the curative effect is not ideal, diet change may be more appropriate than medication.
