Core Tip |
Intentional ingestion of foreign objects typically involves ingestion of small objects (e.g., paperclips, razor blades, pens, eating utensils). Most episodes can be managed with either observation or endoscopy. Surgery should be reserved for those with signs or symptoms of gastrointestinal perforation or obstruction. Due to the documented pattern of escalation, efforts should focus on prevention of recurrence as subsequent episodes are associated with higher morbidity, and significant healthcare and security costs. There are no proven prevention strategies, but efforts to closely monitor patients and provide early psychiatric intervention are among recommended best-practice strategies. |
