Evacuant Enema at Home
250 MAD
An evacuant enema instils a warm solution into the rectum in order to soften impacted stool and trigger complete emptying of the rectum and sigmoid colon. Performed at home by a qualified nurse, on medical prescription or under a validated protocol, it is indicated for refractory constipation, faecal impaction — particularly in bedridden patients and in those who have lost independence — and for bowel preparation before a radiological or endoscopic examination. The patient is placed in the left lateral (Sims) position, the solution is warmed to body temperature (35–37 °C) and instilled slowly, then retained for 10 to 15 minutes before evacuation. Throughout, the nurse monitors tolerance — pain, cramping, vagal discomfort — provides perineal hygiene and comfort care afterwards, and records the quantity and appearance of the stool passed for the referring physician.
Performed on medical prescription. Home visits are arranged by phone call or WhatsApp.
What's included
How it works
Assessment and prescription check
The nurse checks the prescription, examines the abdomen and rules out signs of obstruction or an acute abdomen before anything is instilled.
Controlled instillation
In the left lateral position, a lubricated rectal tube is introduced 8 to 10 cm and the warm solution is instilled slowly over 10 to 15 minutes.
Evacuation, hygiene and reporting
After 10 to 15 minutes of retention the patient is helped to evacuate, perineal care is given, and the result is recorded and passed on to the physician.
