[Enteral tube feeding early after surgery on the stomach and the duodenum]
Abstract:
Experience in enteral tube feeding (ETF) early after stomach resection, gastrectomy, reconstructive surgeries for chronic duodenal obstructions and postgastroresection disorders in 1716 patients is presented. Irrigators were installed in the jejunum during surgery, more rarely--through gastroscope below distal anastomosis. During the first day saline solutions were administered, further--nutritional cocktails. Period of ETF was 5.8 +/- 0.8 days in uncomplicated postoperative period and from 9 to 73 days in postoperative complications. ETF stimulates motor, resorption, synthetic, barrier functions of the small intestine. ETF permits to improve immediate results of stomach and duodenum surgery and to reduce cost of treatment.
