Anatomy & Physiology:
The Digestive System performs the
mechanical and chemical process of
digestion, absorption of nutrients, andelimination of wastes. It consists of the
mouth, esophagus, stomach,
intestines, and accessory organs.

A. Oral Structures
include the lips, teeth, gingivae and oral mucosa, tongue, hardpalate, soft palate, pharynx and salivary glands.
B. The esophagusis a muscular tube extending from the pharynx to the stomach.
C. The Stomach
is a muscular pouch situated in the upper abdomen under the liverand diaphragm. The
stomach consists of three anatomic areas: the fundus, body (i.e.,corpus), and antrum (i.e., pylorus)
D. Sphincters
The LES allows food to enter the stomach and prevents refluxinto the esophagus. The pyloric sphincter regulates flow of stomachcontents (chyme) into the duodenum.
E. The small intestine,
a coiled tube, extends from the pyloric sphincter to theileocecal valve at the large intestine. Sections of the small intestineinclude the duodenum, jejunum and ileum

F. The large intestine
is a shorter, wider tube beginning at the ileocecal valveand ending at the anus. The large intestine consists of three
sections:1. The cecum is a blind pouch that extends from the ileocecalvalve to the vermiform appendix.
2. The colon, which is the main portion of the large intestine,is divided into four anatomic sections: ascending, transverse,
descending and sigmoid.
3. The rectum extends from the sigmoid colon to the anus.
G. The ileocecal valve
prevents the return of feces from the cecum into thesmall intestine and lies at the upper border of the cecum.
H. The appendix,
which collects lymphoid tissues, arises from the cecum.

I. The GI tract
is composed of four layers.
1. An inner mucosal layer
lubricates and protects the inner surface of thealimentary canal.
2. A submucosal layeris responsible for secreting digestive enzymes.
3. A layer of circular and longitudinal smooth musclefibers are responsible for movement of the GI tract.
(Muscularis)
4. The peritoneum, an outer serosal layer, covers the entire abdomen and is composed of the
parietal and visceral layers.

While taking the vital signs of C.A., the student
nurse interviewed the mother. The mother sayskaya ko siya dinala dito kasi palagi siya
dumudumi at nagsusuka. Napansin ko na
sobrang sakit iyon sa kanya kasi sobrang lakas
ng iyak niya at sumisigaw. Yung dinedede niyaparang ganun din karami ung sinusuka niya.
Tapos ayaw na niya dumede ng gatas kaya
pinapainom ko ng am. Napansin ko din na
parang nagdedehydrate siya kasi lubog yungmga mata niya at namumutla ung balat. Isa pa,
sobra ang iyak niya kapag dumudumi
