In the intestine:

Then Passes through hepatic bile ducts into common hepatic duct
bile through the cystic duct into the GB – stored and concentrated.
food ingestion
Bile passes through the bile ducts from the liver to the gallbladder,
which stores it.
It travels to the small intestine when it is needed to help digest
food. This network of ducts is part of the biliary system.
When one or more of the ducts that transport bile become blocked,
it is known as a bile duct obstruction. It is also commonly referred
to as biliary obstruction.
A bile duct obstruction can lead to bile accumulating in the liver
and a build up of bilirubin in the blood.
Causes
10
I. Intra hepatic
Occurs at level of hepatocyte or biliary canalicular membrane
Includes:-
hepatocellular ds(viral hepatitis, drug induced hepatitis)
Drug induced cholestasis. e.g augementin, chlorpromazine
Biliary cirrhosis
Alcoholic liver disease
Diagnosis
11
metastatic tumor-Cancers that have started elsewhere in the body may also spread
to the biliary system where they can cause an obstruction.e.g breast ca,git ca
choledochal cysts
infection

Risk factors
14
o A history of any of the following can increase the risk of bile duct
obstruction:
gallstones
pancreatic cancer
chronic pancreatitis
Progressive jaundice
The obstruction and subsequent cholestasis tends to occur early if
the tumor is located in the common bile duct or common hepatic
duct.
The excess of conjugated bilirubin is associated with bilirubinuria
and clay colored stools.

Treatment aims to relieve the blockage and depends on the underlying cause.

If the cause is found to be cancer, the ducts may need to be stretched and
drained.

If symptoms are present, they are usually
indistinguishable from benign gall bladder disease such
as biliary colic or cholecystitis, particularly in the older
patient.
Jaundice and anorexia are late features.
A palpable mass is a late sign.

ACTIONS/INTERVENTIONS
Respiratory Monitoring (NIC)
Independent
Observe respiratory rate/depth.
Auscultate breath sounds.
Elevate head of bed, maintain low-Fowler’s position
Support abdomen when coughing, ambulating.
Collaboration
Assist with respiratory treatments, e.g., incentive spirometer.
Administer analgesics before breathing treatments/ therapeutic
activities.

Wound care (NIC)
Independent
Observe the color and character of the drainage.
Change dressings as often as necessary.
Use sterile petroleum jelly gauze, zinc oxide, or karaya powder around
the incision.
Place patient in low- or semi-fowler’s position.
Check the t-tube and incisional drains; make sure they are free flowing.
Rehabilitation
