Topic overview

Before performing any of the instructed steps in this video, always check with our team or your child’s pediatrician for safety.

If you’re watching this video, it’s because rectal irrigations have been prescribed by our care team or your child’s primary care provider to help your child empty their colon of stool and gas. Rectal irrigations flush a safe liquid through the colon to help clean stool out and to prevent infection. The goal of this video is to teach you to perform rectal irrigations at home with your child.
