(PART I OF II)

CHAPTER V
5. DIGESTIVE
5.1 General


The criterion for evaluating the gastrointestinal tract is based on the effects of the permanent injury can have on the individual's ability to perform tasks of daily life. The findings of the assessors should be compatible with the patient's physical condition and corroborated by aid diagnostic tests. The irrecoverable of these diseases are usually shown after prolonged observation and treatment. Many of these tests are difficult or impossible to repeat or perform, either because they are expensive, there are many, difficult to perform correctly, for example, Van de Rim to determine steatorrhea, or biopsies of intra-abdominal organs. This difficulty can be supplemented, if alternatives are given the following evidence:

a) Consistency, coherence and commonality between the clinical and physical examination provided objective documentation.
b) Time evolution reasonably fit.
c) Verification of documents when necessary.
d) Using interconsultores gastroenterologists and pathologists to review the clinical and pathological findings.

It should be noted that cases of digestive cancers because of its size and existence of local and regional metastases or remotely, generate a 40% deficiency. The rating of impairment due to cancer of the digestive system is in the chapter of malignant neoplasm. However, this chapter discusses those tumors that are considered radically removed without metastases at the time of the study are not attributable to pathology of neoplastic disease after careful physical examination and ancillary tests such as ultrasound, CT and radiographic studies, etc. ., to rule out as irrefutable tumor invasion. In these cases, the assessment should be based solely on the fallout from the surgery and the digestive commitment derived from the total or partial absence of an organ or segment of the digestive tract, radical gastrectomy, extended gastrectomy, colectomy, and the existence or no surgical stomata.

Digestive system disorders result in severe damage usually alters the nutrition and hence the weight of the individual, or recurrent inflammatory lesions which cause complications generate fistulas, abscesses or obstructions of the digestive tract. These complications usually respond to treatment. Otherwise, it must be shown to persist on repeated examinations and exhausted diagnostic and therapeutic resources, presumably the damage is permanent. In general, these disorders are of two types:

a. Malnutrition or weight loss due to gastrointestinal disorders. Once the primary disorder of the digestive tract, enterocolitis, chronic pancreatitis, gastrointestinal resection, stenosis or obstruction, interference with nutrition of these will be considered as set out below for each tract injury. To this end we apply the weight tables of reference values ​​scientifically validated in the country, provided that weight loss is due to primary or secondary disorders of the digestive tract, malabsorption, poor absorption or irreversible obstruction. The weight loss caused by psychiatric disorders, endocrine, etc., Shall be evaluated according to criteria set for these conditions in the relevant chapters.

b. Surgery and Surgical Referrals intestinal tract. Gastrointestinal tract surgery, including colostomy or ileostomy, are covered by these rules while not representing a damage which affects the workplace, by itself, if the individual is able to maintain adequate nutrition and functional stoma. The dumping syndrome after gastrectomy is rarely severe damage. Recurrent peptic ulcer generally responds to treatment. Are considered as those planned definitive surgical procedures to control the ulcerative process, ie, vagotomy, pyloroplasty, subtotal gastrectomy, etc. The great post-surgery abdominal hernias with loss of anterior abdominal wall surgically irreparable generate a global deficiency between 15% and 28%, and in most cases 15%. The closure of a perforated ulcer is not a definitive surgical treatment. In this chapter, the deficiency in the digestive system relate to:

1. Mouth, esophagus, stomach, first portion of the duodenum, small intestine and pancreas.
2. Colon and rectum.
3. Anal canal.
4. Ostomy surgery.
5. Liver and bile ducts.
6. Overweight.
7. Other diseases of the abdominal wall.

For purposes of evaluation and according to the clinical picture, each of these groups is divided into several classes according to the percentage of impairment of the whole person.

5.2 Mouth, esophagus, stomach, first portion of the duodenum, small bowel and pancreas.

Symptoms and signs include nausea, vomiting, pain, bleeding, obstruction, diarrhea, malabsorption and weight loss. Nutritional deficiencies can cause hematological and neurological manifestations are evaluated in the chapter on these organ systems, usually reversible with proper treatment. There are symptoms that are often permanent and difficult to correct, such as the early dumping, dumping late chronic diarrhea and weight loss of up to 20% of ideal.

Irreparable obstruction of the biliary tract with recurrent cholangitis. There is persistent jaundice and progressive and progressive liver disease due to common bile duct obstruction. By way of example, corresponds to class IV deficiency diseases of the liver and biliary tract such as Chronic Liver Disease and post-necrotic cirrhosis and portal bile chronic active hepatitis and Wilson's disease accompanied by esophageal varices endoscopically and radiologically proven, with a history of massive bleeding, or surgical bypass of these varices, or bilirubin 2.5 mg% or more on serial examinations for at least 5 months; or encephalopathy should be evaluated by the criteria applied in the chapter on Mental Illness, or confirmation of the existence of chronic liver biopsy and one of the following criteria:

Overweight 5.7
Overweight is a state of physical abnormality that can be caused by disease. Physiological disorders can be accompanied to the magnitude of the failure and may condition or worsening of other diseases irrecoverable. Being overweight or obese themselves do not generate deficiency. Only allocated deficiencies according to the underlying disease that causes or its consequences, in those chapters, and should be combined to obtain the final total deficiency or see the combined values ​​table.

5.8 Other diseases of the abdominal wall
This group aims to highlight the group wall hernias and abdominal cavity, it can be corrected surgically and contraindications for this, in which case the deficiency is:
