Post-procedure care is crucial for patient recovery. Here are some key aspects:
Hydration: Encourage the patient to drink plenty of fluids to help flush out the barium sulfate from their system. Diet: Advise a high-fiber diet to prevent constipation. Monitoring: Regularly check the patient's bowel movements and abdominal symptoms. Follow-up: Ensure the patient has a follow-up appointment to discuss the results of the imaging study.
