3. Boiled/settled water in an amount of 2-3 l;

That's probably all.

Next, I would like to draw your attention to the following aspects:
1. How to choose the right Esmarch mug: what should you pay attention to?
2. How to properly prepare a mug before use?
3. How to properly prepare the solution for administration?
4. Correct technique for cleaning the intestines (breathing exercises, exercises, schedule of procedures).

How to choose the right Esmarch mug: what should you pay attention to?

The popularity of Esmarch's mug is explained by its affordability, as well as the fact that this device does not cause allergic or toxic reactions and is reusable. You can buy Esmarch's mug at any pharmacy kiosk or in specialized medical stores. The price varies depending on the manufacturer and modification.

Widely represented on the market two types of rubber heating pads: A, that is ordinary And Bcombined. Besides, mugs vary in size: product No. 1 accommodates 1 liter of water, №2 1.5 liters of water And №3 2 liters of water.

The designs of Esmarch mugs can also be different: on sale you can find devices with and without faucets, with different types of tips (hard and soft), with built-in bushings, plugs, screw closures with through holes.

How to properly prepare a mug before use?

Before use, the mug must be thoroughly rinsed. boiled water with soda, rinse and pour boiling water over it. We process the tips in the same way.

How to properly prepare a solution for administration?

You will need about 2-3 liters of water, which must be prepared in advance. The water temperature corresponds to room temperature (about 18 ° C). It enhances intestinal motility. It is recommended to add 1-2 tbsp to the water. spoons of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice; You can dissolve a pinch of citric acid. You can also add beet juice or garlic water. Garlic contains biologically active components that inhibit the growth of pathogenic microbes.

Garlic water

1 clove of garlic, 1 glass of water.

Chop the garlic, add cold water, leave for 3-4 hours, strain and pour into the prepared solution with apple cider vinegar (2 tablespoons per 3 liters of water). The prepared water is poured into Esmarch's mug.

It is better to use settled or boiled water for enema.
And yet, We will carry out this procedure every day for the first week. Subsequent ones based on the schedule discussed in the next subparagraph.

Correct bowel cleansing technique (breathing exercises, exercises, schedule of procedures).

Cleansing with an Esmarch mug is a very effective way to cleanse the intestines, which allows you to empty it quite deeply and completely. The best time for the procedure is 5-7 am, which corresponds to the natural biological rhythms of the body.
The procedure is carried out in various body positions: lying on the left or right side with legs tucked to the stomach, squatting, kneeling with emphasis on the elbows (knee-elbow position), lying on the back. Before the procedure, the tip of the rubber hose is lubricated with cream, Vaseline or vegetable oil to facilitate insertion. The air must be released from the tube. To do this, raise and lower the tip relative to the mug until water flows and turn off the tap.

Insert the tip very slowly and carefully, especially if there is inflammation or fissure of the rectum, hemorrhoids. After inserting the tip to a depth of 20 cm, open the tap and let the water flow freely. It is very important to breathe correctly so that the abdominal muscles relax. Breathe deeply through your nose and exhale briefly through your mouth. Proper breathing will allow more water to enter the intestines. If you feel severe pain in the intestines, but have not yet poured in all the water, then turn off the tap on the hose and lightly massage your stomach in a clockwise direction so that the liquid is better distributed throughout the intestines. Then continue the procedure, since all the water needs to be introduced.

When the water runs out, remove the tip. Place a pad of thick material on the anus, which will retain fluid in the intestines. Now comes the hard part. You should try to hold the water in yourself for at least 7-10 minutes, and it is recommended to perform the following series of exercises: lie on your stomach and start slowly rolling from side to side, then stand in a knee-elbow position and do the “cat crawling under the fence” exercise ", return to the starting position and make retracting movements with your abdominal muscles several times. Repeat this set of exercises 3-4 times.
Girls, I’ll make a reservation right away, it will be very difficult the first time and you won't be able to hold the water for so long, but the game is worth the candle. After the third time everything will go like clockwork

When you run out of time or it becomes completely unbearable, go to the toilet. There you need to massage your stomach to achieve maximum bowel movement. If, when stroking under your fingers, you feel transfusion and gurgling, then not all of the water has come out. Don't do an enema if you don't have enough time. It is very important that exactly the same amount of water comes out as you poured into the intestines. It is unacceptable to leave even a small part of the liquid inside: the remaining part will be absorbed with feces through the intestinal wall and will cause even more harm.

After a correctly performed procedure, you should feel lightness and emptiness in your intestines. However, if you feel that there is still a lot of feces left, then you need to fill the mug with water again and repeat the procedure.

SCHEDULE OF PROCEDURES

1st week - daily enemas
2nd week - every other day
3rd week - in 2 days
4th week - in 3 days
5th week - in 4 days
6th week - in 5 days
7th week - in 6 days
8th week and subsequent - 1 time per week.

In addition to enemas, you can use a less radical method: drink 1-2 tablets at night. "Bisacodyl" (there are both tablets and suppositories).

THIS IS IMPORTANT!
An enema using an Esmarch mug has a number of contraindications. These are exacerbations of chronic intestinal diseases (colitis, hemorrhoids, proctitis), infectious diseases with high fever, severe headache, weakness, nausea, and indigestion. You should also refrain from taking an enema if you have hypertension, heart or kidney failure, after a recent heart attack or stroke, or any surgery. Women are not recommended to undergo the procedure during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or menstruation; for gynecological diseases (for example, vaginal prolapse), for acute abdominal pain.

To prevent the feeling of fullness from being so painful, it is recommended to achieve natural bowel movements before starting the enema.
For chronic constipation, before administering such an enema, the rectum is first emptied. To do this, using an Esmarch mug (or a rubber bulb), 0.5 liters of water is injected into the rectum and immediately released. You can repeat the procedure 2-3 times (according to your own feelings). Then add water to Esmarch’s mug and do a full enema.

I wish everyone good luck and patience

PY. SY. In order to prevent the intestinal microflora from being washed out, we replenish it with healthy ones. That is, we take bifido- and lacto-bacteria in the form of capsules "yogurt", "Linex", "Narine" (Lactoflora), "Simbiter", "Bifidum bacteria" and other drugs. Depending on what suits you specifically. For myself, I chose Lysobakt.

Humanity has been using few medical devices for more than 200 years, without changing its essence too much. The enema (called after him) invented by the German surgeon Friedrich Esmarch is one of these devices. Over time, with the introduction of new materials, its appearance has changed, but in general it is the same device as two centuries ago, with the same name.

What is an Esmarch mug?

The most popular device used for sanitary and hygienic procedures at home (gastric lavage, douching) is the Esmarch cup. Initially, it was a glass or earthenware container for liquid with an outlet tube. A modern Esmarch mug is a device made of plastic, rubber, silicone (medical steel is occasionally used). The outlet tube is made of rubber or plastisols. New models are equipped with a faucet; older analogues used a clamp.

This is a reusable device, easy to maintain and assemble. Esmark mugs with a capacity of 1.5 - 2 liters are very popular (the volume can be another 3-4 liters). For the convenience of users, the neck is open, which makes it easy to pour the enema solution into the cup. The pharmacy set includes, in addition to Esmarch's mug, a tube, faucet, nozzles, and instructions. The materials used for manufacturing are not destroyed by solutions of potassium permanganate or acetic acid for disinfection. The service life of an Esmarch cup is 2 years, storage time is 3.5.

Price for Esmarch's mug

How much does Esmarch's mug cost in a pharmacy?

No. 1 (price in rub.)

Many modern medical devices that seem so commonplace today were truly revolutionary in their time. A striking example of this is the Esmarch mug. What is it?

Basic enema tool

Esmarch's mug (photo below) is a medical device for carrying out such a well-known procedure as an enema.

As a rule, this instrument is used when large volumes of liquid (1-2 l) need to be introduced into the intestines. In other cases, rubber bulbs of various sizes are used.

What does it consist of?

Over more than a century of its existence, this instrument has not changed much. Except for the materials from which it is made. Today it is rubber, plastic and silicone.

A traditional Esmarch mug consists of the following components.


Combination heating pad

Often, another medical device can act as an Esmarch mug - a rubber heating pad, which would be more correctly called a combined one. It differs from the usual one in the configuration. In addition to the plug itself and the plug, the set includes a hose with a tap and a tip.

Thus, in normal cases, a heating pad can and should be used for its intended purpose (to warm or cool). And in case of urgent need, it will perfectly replace Esmarch's mug.

For one time

The types of this tool described above are intended for repeated use. However, there are also disposable Esmarch mugs on sale.

Unlike ordinary ones, they are sterile and are used in special cases. There are varieties with a ready-made drug inside.

The history of the Esmarch mug

A medical procedure such as an enema was invented by the ancient Egyptians and was actively practiced by other peoples. Initially, its purpose was to combat constipation and cleanse the intestines. However, it was soon discovered that its walls are capable of quite well absorbing various substances administered rectally. This discovery made it possible to use the anus for purposes other than its intended purpose. Medicinal and even nutritional enemas were practiced, as well as alcoholic and opium enemas.

But while some experimented in search of new pleasures and rejuvenation, others continued to work for the benefit of humanity. Among these scientists was the German surgeon F.A. Esmarch. During his long life, he participated as a medic in many wars. He made many important discoveries, without which modern medicine would not have appeared. He was one of the pioneers of asepsis and antisepsis, improved methods of bleeding blood vessels and actually became the founder of future nursing institutions.

It was this outstanding person who came up with the idea of ​​using a suspended vessel. His innovation was a real breakthrough. The fact is that before Esmarch, an enema was done using a piston mechanism, reminiscent of a large metal syringe. It was not only extremely inconvenient, but also small in capacity. So the procedure had to be done several times.

The innovation quickly migrated from military field medicine to conventional medicine. Doctors highly appreciated the convenience of the new device, and it soon replaced its piston predecessor and has not lost its position to this day.

How to do an enema with an Esmarch mug at home

The design of the device in question, as well as the procedure performed with it, are so simple that they can be carried out with equal ease in medical institutions and at home. The algorithm is quite simple.


How to care for your instrument

The above article describes how to use Esmarch's mug. But how to care for her? You need to follow a number of simple rules.

  1. After each use, all parts of the instrument should be washed with soap. Even if just water was used for the enema.
  2. The tip should also be sterilized. However, this procedure is best carried out immediately before use.
  3. After cleaning, all parts of the instrument should be allowed to dry and only then put them in a bag or box.
  4. Like any rubber products, it is better not to store Esmarch's mug in too warm or cold places, as this can lead to premature wear.

Contraindications for use

When should this device not be used?

  1. Allergy to the material from which it is made or components of the enema fluid.
  2. Children under 13 years of age are prohibited from using the Esmarch mug. Only rubber bulbs are acceptable for them.
  3. Kidney diseases.
  4. Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as hemorrhoids and anal fissures.

In addition to the above, the attending physician may find other reasons. In any case, even if you yourself cope well with Esmarch’s mug, and there are never any problems or contraindications, you should periodically check with a doctor. The fact is that regularly giving yourself enemas is harmful. Because of this, the intestinal microflora is destroyed, and the intestine itself begins to be “lazy.”

It is known that the great lover of such cleansing, the Marquise Pompadour, at the end of her life brought her body to the point that she herself could no longer go deep. So if you still practice so-called “beauty enemas,” then do them at least no more than once a week.

The modern rhythm of life, stress, unbalanced nutrition, digestive disorders - all these phenomena lead to improper intestinal motility and untimely bowel movements. As a result: unhealthy complexion, pain and bloating, symptoms of general intoxication. The most urgent method of therapy in this case would be to administer an enema using an Esmarch mug. We’ll look at how to use this device yourself in the article.

Esmarch's mug is designed for various solutions and douching. It is a rubber or silicone reservoir with a volume of 1.5–2 liters with a long hose and several types of tips. 150 years ago it actually looked like a ceramic or glass mug; the invention was created by the German surgeon Esmarch. The purpose of creating this device was the preoperative preparation of the patient’s intestines and the treatment of its obstruction. Today it is used as a heating pad, for enemas and douching. This device is easy to find in any pharmacy, purchase and use at home.

Varieties

Modern manufacturers present a fairly wide range of these products. The choice depends not only on quality and appearance, but also on the purpose and modification of the product.

Mugs Esmarch are different according to the following parameters:

  • Volume - the product is presented in three types and corresponds to 1l, 1.5l and 2l;
  • With or without a tap (creates additional ease of use, there is no need to pinch the hose);
  • Types of tips (depending on the purpose of the mug and the age of the patient, they are presented for adults and children, soft and hard);
  • Material – rubber, silicone, plastic;
  • Frequency of use - reusable and disposable.

Indications for use

An enema can be administered both in a hospital setting and at home. Main indications for manipulation according to the instructions for use:

  • Emptying the intestines with special solutions administered using an enema before surgery or diagnostic colonoscopy;
  • Cleansing the lower intestines before self-cleansing delivery;
  • Included in the therapeutic complex for the treatment of constipation;
  • Treatment of enterocolitis (after preliminary cleansing of the intestines, medicinal solutions are administered rectally for local effects);
  • Used as detoxification therapy for poisoning;
  • Vaginal douching with medicinal solutions for inflammatory and fungal lesions of the pelvic organs.

An easy-to-use device will help you perform an enema or cleansing procedure at home.

Contraindications

There are a number of contraindications and restrictions to the use of such a harmless, at first glance, device. The main ones are:

  • Acute inflammatory process of the rectum and anus;
  • Rectal tumors;
  • Diarrhea of ​​unknown origin;
  • Haemorrhoids;
  • Crohn's disease;
  • Symptoms of acute abdomen, intussusception (strictly as prescribed by the surgeon);
  • Ulcers and bleeding in the intestines.

Douching with non-sterile solutions is prohibited during: menstruation, after curettage of the uterine cavity, operations, pregnancy.

Enema solutions

Depending on the purpose, enemas are classified:

  • Medicinal - the peculiarity of this enema is the administration of drugs that will enter the blood through the walls of the intestinal vessels, bypassing the effects on the liver or acting only locally on the mucous membrane. The intestines are first cleaned, and then a medicinal micro enema can be given (since the volume of administered drugs does not exceed 50-100 ml).
  • Hypertensive - the enema has a mild laxative effect, without increasing intestinal motility. Prepare a warm solution of 5-10% sodium chloride or 20-30% magnesium sulfate.
  • Oil enema - this enema is used for long-term constipation. The treatment is based on warm administration (sunflower, hemp, Vaseline).
  • Starch - used for acute colitis, significantly reduces intestinal motility, envelops and softens the mucous membrane. A warm solution is introduced with the addition of a small amount of starch (potato, rice, corn, wheat).

There are standards and dosages for preparing these types of enemas. It is recommended to do this after consulting a doctor.

Self-administering an enema

Carrying out an enema will not be difficult or require any special skills - you just need an Esmarch mug and a solution. You need to prepare the necessary liquid from warm water, medicinal decoction, saline solution or manganese in advance. The mug is filled with the necessary solution, after closing the tap on the hose or, if it is missing, squeezing it. Lubricate the tip with oil or Vaseline and take knee-elbow position, insert it into the anus to the required depth. Open the tap or clamp and fill the intestines with the solution.

After this, you need to lie on your back or on your right side (for better flow of the solution into the ascending and transverse sections of the large intestine). Additionally, to better stimulate intestinal motility, you can retract and relax the abdomen. You need to lie in this position for more than 5 minutes. When you feel the urge to defecate, you can go to the toilet.

Unreasonable and frequent use of enemas can be harmful to your health. All solutions are capable of washing out the natural microflora and bacteria beneficial to the body, as a result of which the intestinal mucosa is irritated, followed by the formation of erosions and ulcers, and mechanically injuring the rectum.

Douching

It is very convenient to irrigate the vagina with specially prepared medicinal solutions or herbal tinctures using an Esmarch mug. Having previously washed the external genitalia, the woman takes a lying position with her knees bent in the bathroom or placing a bedpan under her. The mug filled with the necessary solution is placed at a height of 0.5–1 m above the level of the pelvis. A sterile vaginal tip is inserted and the hose tap is opened. Start douching with low pressure, then gradually increase it. Upon completion, remove the tip and process the product.

Proper enema treatment

Esmarch's mug is a reusable product; in order to avoid infection and make its service life longer, it must be properly disinfected and processed. After use, the container and hose are washed with soapy water several times, rinsed in clean water and washed with a weak solution of potassium permanganate. The disposable tip must be recycled. If the tip is reusable, then it is pre-soaked in a soap solution, rinsed with running water and then boiled for 3-5 minutes. The device is ready for further use and should be stored in a clean place.
