The effect of decreased colloid oncotic pressure, as seen in hypoalbuminemia and hypoproteinemia, upon intestinal function has been well delineated in the surgical literature. Patients undergoing abdominal aortic aneurysm resection or aortoiliac or aortofemoral bypass grafts are almost uniformly
Prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI) is a prolonged state of "pathological" gastrointestinal (GI) tract dysmotility. There are relatively few studies examining the influence of preoperative nutritional status on the development of PPOI in patients who underwent GI surgery. OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to compare the effect of naso-intestinal tube and naso-gastric tube in relieving postoperative ileus in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.
METHODS
Patients (n = 46) with ileus symptom following radical surgery for treating colorectal cancer were placed
BACKGROUND
Management strategies for prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI) are principally conservative and it is therefore valuable to shift attention to prevention. This study aimed to identify prospectively the perioperative risk factors for the development of PPOI and create a tool to predict its
OBJECTIVE
Postoperative ileus (POI) after colorectal surgery is associated with prolonged hospital stay and increased costs. The aim of this study is to investigate pre-, intra-, and postoperative risk factors associated with the development of POI in patients undergoing laparoscopic partial
OBJECTIVE
Newborns who undergo surgery for gastroschisis correction may present with oliguria, anasarca, prolonged postoperative ileus, and infection. New postoperative therapeutic procedures were tested with the objective of improving postoperative outcome.
METHODS
One hundred thirty-six newborns
The aim of the investigation was to determine the changes in intermediary metabolism that occur in cases of ileus, and to develop a concept for parenteral perioperative nutrition on a pathophysiological basis. Seventeen metabolically healthy patients, suffering from mechanical ileus, have been
OBJECTIVE
To determine risk factors associated with development of postoperative ileus in horses undergoing surgery for colic.
METHODS
Case-control study.
METHODS
69 horses that developed ileus after surgery for colic and 307 horses that did not develop postoperative ileus.
METHODS
Signalment,
Between January 1985 and May 1990, 16 neonates were treated for meconium ileus (MI) at this hospital. All babies were born to Chinese couples. Seven of them were premature, but none of them weighed less than 1,000 g. Eight patients underwent operations either because of mistaken diagnosis, as ileal
On the basis of recent pathophysiological data and clinical observations in three patients, this paper draws attention to the commonly neglected importance of postoperative hypoproteinemia as the cause of an edema of the intestinal wall with a consequent "interstitial" paralytic ileus. The
To identify the incidence and risk factors for developing early postoperative paralytic ileus (POPI) after radical cystectomy and cutaneous ureterostomy with a unilateral and parallel stoma, we retrospectively reviewed 21 patients (mean age 73.0, 19 males and 2 females) with a minimum of 3 months of
This article describes a continuous quality improvement team's efforts to reduce the number of patients at risk for developing a postoperative ileus. This study was limited to patients who underwent a surgical procedure that did not involve the bowel. Patients who developed an ileus after the
Post-operative ileus is a recognized complication of surgery. Little is known about the incidence and risk factors for post-operative ileus following spinal fusion surgery. To report the incidence and to assess for independent risk factors of post-operative ileus after spinal fusion
Postoperative ileus (POI) is a clinical burden to health-care system. This study aims to evaluate the incidence and predictors of POI in patients undergoing colectomy and create a nomogram by using recently released procedure-targeted nationwide database. Patients who underwent elective colectomy in
BACKGROUND
Postoperative ileus is a common problem after colorectal surgery. The aim of the study was to investigate the incidence and risk factors for prolonged postoperative ileus (POI) after colectomy for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs).
METHODS
Consecutive patients who underwent colorectal
