Objective: Charcoal is the first-line treatment in drug intoxication. Prediction of the time required for charcoal to pass in patients with constipation using radio-opaque markers (Kolomark) will facilitate the treatment, progression, and discharge of patients.
Methods: From October 2017 to April 2018, we compared constipation and non-constipation groups of patients aged 15 years old and over who were treated with drug intoxication at the emergency department. To accomplish this, a radiopaque marker, Kolomark, was administered after administration of charcoal and X-rays were taken to confirm the location of the Kolomark. The rectosigmoid colon arrival time of charcoal and charcoal passing time was then measured.
Results: Based on 48 charcoal passing times, 56 hours 42 minutes was required for its passage. The Kolomark arrival time at the rectosigmoid colon was delayed by about 47 hours in the constipation group. Additionally, the time of evacuation of the charcoal from rectosigmoid colon to stool was 15 hours 42 minutes in the constipation group, while it was 13 hours 10 minutes in the non-constipation group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The results revealed that charcoal is released in 13 hours 52 minutes after Kolomark arrives at the rectosigmoid colonic position. These findings may help predict the release of charcoal during treatment of patients and facilitate patient's treatment, progress, and discharge.
