Study of Postoperative Ileus in Digestive Surgery

Sponsor

University Hospital, Toulouse

Enrollment

161 participants

Start Date

Apr 24, 2024

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Colorectal Surgery

Summary

Post-operative ileus is a temporary stoppage of bowel function following surgery. Indeed it can occur in 20% of cases during post-operative follow-up of bowel surgery. The absence of resumption of transit can lead to the implementation of specific treatments such as the placement of a nasogastric tube and drug treatments. To date, the definition of this event is not accepted by everyone and is not based on reproducible evaluation criteria. The main objective of this study is to evaluate a score used to date to define postoperative ileus, the IFEED score, and to compare it to the length of postoperative stay.
