“…This is evidenced by its observed motor activity (contractions) with the abdomen open and the success of immediate postoperative small bowel feeding via a jejunostomy tube. 13 In contrast to a routine postoperative ileus, significant intra-abdominal inflammation, infection, direct trauma, medications (usually narcotics), or bowel edema can cause the small bowel to lose its inherent muscular activity (paralytic ileus).…”

Small bowel obstruction (SBO) remains a major surgical condition, and its management consumes a significant portion of our health care efforts. Adhesions are the most common cause of SBO in developed societies. Most small bowel obstructions can be managed with nonoperative means such as bowel rest and intravenous hydration. Operative treatment is indicated to relieve obstructions that fail to resolve with conservative measures, and involves lysis of adhesions or resections. New methods to prevent obstruction are under development.Objectives: Upon completion of this article, the reader should be able to understand intrabdominal adhesions and the management and prevention of small bowel obstruction.

“…There has been a series of 130 percutaneous transgastric (nonendoscopic) jejunostomies reported, with a major complication rate of 0.8% [109]. As with nasogastric or gastrostomy feeding, enteral feeding through a jejunostomy may cost from one-eighth to one-third thai of total parenteral nutrition [93,95,96,10In 102].…”

Abstract. Thc inercasing rccognition of malnutrition among hospitalized patients has spawned a variety of sophisticated forms of nutritional support. Dysphagic patients, in particular, are easily identifiable and present with varying degrees of nutritional compromise thai complicate the underlying swallowing disorder. Choice of therapeutic modalities available and their relative risks and benefits are reviewed.

“…Several studies have elucidated the validity of early enteral nutrition (EN) in various patient groups including critically ill patients [1,2,3], head-injury patients [4,5], burns patients [6,7], trauma patients [8,9] and septic patients [10,11]. The efficacy of early enteral nutririon after surgery for patients who have undergone major surgery has been also proven [12,13,14,15,16,17].…”

Is Early Enteral Nutrition Better for Postoperative Course in Esophageal Cancer Patients?

et al. 2013

We retrospectively examined esophageal cancer patients who received enteral nutrition (EN) to clarify the validity of early EN compared with delayed EN. A total of 103 patients who underwent transthoracic esophagectomy with three-field lymphadenectomy for esophageal cancer were entered. Patients were divided into two groups; Group E received EN within postoperative day 3, and Group L received EN after postoperative day 3. The clinical factors such as days for first fecal passage, the dose of postoperative albumin infusion, differences of serum albumin value between pre- and postoperation, duration of systematic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), incidence of postoperative infectious complication, and use of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) were compared between the groups. The statistical analyses were performed using Mann-Whitney U test and Chi square test. The statistical significance was defined as p < 0.05. Group E showed fewer days for the first fecal passage (p < 0.01), lesser dose of postoperative albumin infusion (p < 0.01), less use of TPN (p < 0.01), and shorter duration of SIRS (p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups. Early EN started within 3 days after esophagectomy. It is safe and valid for reduction of albumin infusion and TPN, for promoting early recovery of intestinal movement, and for early recovery from systemic inflammation.
