Update Fall 2012: I quit after two years as a business analyst. I work at a tech company now and am much happier, but realize that I would not be where I am without my experience at Deloitte. Most of my team in my current company came from consulting (Bain, Deloitte, etc.) as well. ________________. I work there now, I've been here for more than one but less than three years. It is my first job out of college.
Causes of a Blocked Bowel. Most cases of small bowel obstruction are due to mechanical causes. A small portion of cases are due to impaired intestinal motility, thereby preventing the flow of chyme further down the gastrointestinal tract. This causes intestinal contents to become âbacked upâ.
The cause of the blockage can be mechanical, meaning that there is a physical obstruction. Mechanical blockage may be caused by scar tissue, adhesions, entrapment through a hernia, foreign bodies, gallstones, tumors, impacted feces, and volvulus (twisting of the intestines).he bowel, or intestine, is the part of the digestive tract that absorbs nutrients and fluid from foods we eat. The residue of digested food passes through the bowel and is excreted during elimination, the final stage of digestion.
