high amplitude propagating complex (hapc)? massesammentrækning / kraftig propulserende peristaltik Explanation: Se specialet: http://foodplus.dk/media/6585/hyg om, snak med og frist din ... eller: http://www.sklerodermi.dk/download/arrangementer/sklerodermi... A second and very important type of motility that occurs in the large intestine is the high amplitude propagating contraction (HAPC). These contractions only occur 6-8 times per day in healthy people, but they are extremely strong contractions which begin in the first part of the large intestine and sweep around all the way to the rectum; they stop just above the rectum. These contractions move the contents of the large intestine ahead of them, and they will often trigger a bowel movement, or at least the urge to have a bowel movement. Very slow contractions such as those seen in the upper part of the stomach (changes in muscle tone) also occur in the large intestine and may be important in its function, but there have not been studied enough to know for certain what they do. https://www.med.unc.edu/ibs/files/educational-gi-handouts/GI...
