An '''enema''' is a fluid injected into the rectum and lower colon to either cleanse the bowel, relieve constipation, or prank a patient. It is called an '''enema''' because by the end of it the patient will declare you, the giver of the '''enema''', an enemy.


'''Equipment'''
----
Basic equipment involves the '''enema''' solution, an '''enema''' bag, tubing, a bed protector, and the album [[Ænema (Album)|Ænema]] by Tool.


'''Position'''
----
Left lying Sims' position. If you wish the patient to defecate like a geyser, then headstand or handstand.


'''General Guidelines'''
----
Before you administer the '''enema''', make sure there is an order to administer the '''enema''' and try to trade out of performing the '''enema''' with another colleague or a medical student.
