Document Summary
Lesions: cut cervically means no more 1st peristaltic wave (somatic and autonomic vagi cut, cut transthoracically=a few autonomic fibers cut, somatic ones intact (cid:224)1st peristalsis continues as long as a few of en in distal esophagus have been activated (cid:224)distal esophagus has the ens circuitry necessary for the propagation of the peristaltic wave, vagus is essential for initiating 1st peristalsis in proximal esophagus, continuation and propagation in distal esophagus requires intactness of ens. After intake of a meal: how are contents removed: during intake of a new meal, distension of stomach generates gastroileal reflex , gastroileal reflex: (cid:224)activates peristaltic activity in distal ileum, causing relaxation of ileocecal sphincter and emptying contents in the colon (cid:224)distension of distal ileum causes further peristalsis and relaxation of ileocecol sphincter (cid:224)also reinforces the gastrocolic reflexes by sending impulses to distal colon, gastrocolic reflex: (cid:224)increase peristalsis in distal colon, pushing contents into rectum (cid:224)distension of rectum=urge to defecate (cid:224)involves ens and extrinsic (long) reflexes.
