GASTROGRAFIN ENEMA
EXAMINATION
MAAJID MOHI UD DIN MALIK
LECTURER COPMS AU,
BATHINDA PUNJAB
WHAT IS A
GASTROGRAFIN ENEMA?
 A gastrografin enema is a radiological examination of your
colon and rectum (large bowel) by filling it with gastrografin.
Gastrografin is a water soluble clear fluid that shows up on x-
ray pictures. The examination is usually performed to assess if
there is a leak outside the bowel.
 The procedure will take place in the radiology department
and usually takes approximately 25 minutes.
PREPARATION FOR THE
PROCEDURE
 No bowel preparation is needed and you can eat and drink
as normal on the day.
 If you are female and of childbearing capacity, you will be
asked to complete a form with the date of your last period and
whether there is any possibility you may be pregnant. This is
because this examination should only be performed when we
can be sure that you are not pregnant.
 Please let us know as soon as possible if you have problems
standing or transferring from a wheelchair so that we can make
arrangements.
 You should also let us know if you have had any previous
allergic reactions to iodine or x-ray contrast (a liquid that is
visible on x-ray).
WHAT TO BRING WITH
YOU
 You might wish to bring your own dressing gown,
slippers and reading material.
DURING THE PROCEDURE
 You will be asked to change into a hospital gown before
being taken to the examination room where you will be asked to
lie on your left side, at which point, a soft tube is gently inserted
into the back passage by a radiologist (a doctor who uses x-rays
to diagnose illnesses).
 The gastrografin liquid is passed through the tube into the large
bowel, during which time x-ray pictures will be taken. You may be
asked to move into different positions to coat the bowel.
 Once all the x-ray pictures have been taken, the gastrografin
will be drained out, the tube is removed and you can go to the toilet
that is immediately adjacent to the x-ray room.
 Most people do not find the procedure painful but you may
experience some discomfort when the tube is inserted.
AFTER THE PROCEDURE
 You may experience small amounts of clear fluid or mucus
from your back passage, which may occasionally be blood-
stained. Some people also get mild abdominal cramp. It is
sensible to bring a change of underwear as a precaution.
RISKS
 There is some exposure to radiation during the procedure
because x-rays are used. However, as this is a low dose
examination, exposure to radiation is kept to a minimum.
Generally, the amount of radiation you are exposed to during
this procedure is equivalent to between a few days and a few
years of exposure to natural radiation from the environment.
RESULTS
 The radiologist will examine the pictures and a report of the
findings will be sent to the doctor who requested the procedure.
This report should be available at your outpatient follow up
appointment.
