Abstract:
This study aims to evaluate appropriate treatment measures after endoscopic closure of perforation. A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing endoscopic closure of gastric perforation was conducted to analyze whether stomach tube, fasting time, tumor site, antibiotics, operation time, and endoscopic method are related to body temperature and abdominal pain. Whether stomach tube, fasting time, antibiotics, tumor site, operation time, endoscopic method, body temperature, and abdominal pain are related to length of stay. Body temperature was correlated with fasting time and antibiotics, with statistical significance (P < .05), but not with gastric tube, lesion location, treatment method, and resection time; the incidence of abdominal pain was correlated with gastric tube, fasting time, and antibiotics, with statistical significance (P < .05), but not with lesion location, treatment method, and resection time. The length of stay was correlated with fasting time, body temperature, and abdominal pain, with statistical significance (P < .05), but not with gastric tube, lesion location, treatment method, antibiotics, and resection time. After perforation repair, it is feasible to use antibiotics according to the abdominal pain and body temperature of the patient. Gastric tube may cause abdominal pain and discomfort of the patient. Early oral feeding can shorten length of stay.
