“…10,72 Chewing gum has previously been used in an attempt to improve the postoperative recovery of bowel function in patients. Chewing gum in the postoperative period has been described as a form of sham feeding, 73 whereby a food substance is chewed but does not enter the stomach. Gum is postulated to increase cephalo-vagal stimulation, leading to increased gastric motility and reduced inhibitory inputs from the sympathetic nervous system.…”

“…75 A number of studies exist which demonstrate the benefits in patients undergoing colorectal surgery. 73,74,[76][77][78] A meta-analysis of several RCTs evaluating the effect of chewing gum on postoperative ileus has subsequently been published. Although there are relatively low patient numbers and a significant heterogeneity of studies, chewing gum offers significant benefits by reducing the time to pass flatus and the time until first bowel movement.…”

“…[76] Gum chewing enhances early recovery from POI after laparoscopic colectomy. [77] It reduces ileus after elective open sigmoid colectomy. [78] Gum chewing should be added as an adjunct treatment in post-operative care because it might contribute to shorter hospital stays.…”

“…Em estudo prospectivo randomizado realizado por Aguilar-Nascimento et al 38 , verificou-se que não houve diferença significante entre as taxas de deiscência de anastomose entre o grupo que recebeu nutrição precoce e o submetido a tratamento convencional. A nutrição precoce é viável e segura, mesmo quando oferecida entre quatro a 12 horas após a operação [34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41] . Na verdade, a oferta precoce de nutrientes estimula reflexo que produz atividade propulsiva coordenada e, induz à secreção de hormônios gastrointestinais, diminuindo por conseguinte o íleo pós-operatório.…”
