This case concerns a (b)(6) year old male who has an existing 3 year old spinal cord injury.An email was received on 1/13/2020 from the clinical nurse consultant (cnc) who reported that the patient was admitted to the hospital as he was experiencing an episode of autonomic dysreflexia, brought on by intense abdominal pain caused intussusception.The symptoms were theorised by his physician to be due to use of the peristeen system, causing him to experience reverse peristalsis leading to intussusception; therefore, causing the end user t6o suffer from autonomic dysreflexia.However, the theory is unconfirmed.The patient is seeing a colorectal surgeon and gastroenterologist to determine the relationship of the peristeen system to the patient symptoms and has undergone exploratory surgery during which 3 lots of intussusception were found.The patient has ceased used of the peristeen system until a determination can be made.No additional information was provided.
