Food or fluid intake stimulates peristalsis, which can increase intraluminal pressure and precipitate perforation of the inflamed appendix. Keeping the patient NPO helps avoid exacerbating the underlying condition.
Never apply heat to the abdomen or administer an enema to a patient with suspected appendicitis. Heat can increase vascularity and the risk of rupture, while an enema increases pressure and can directly cause perforation, leading to peritonitis.
