OBJECTIVE: We assessed the clinical effectiveness of postoperative enteral stimulation by gut feeding in @entity1 with @entity656 ( @entity656 ). METHODS: Medical records of 63 @entity1 who were operated on within the past 4 y due to deterioration of @entity656 were included in this retrospective study. @entity1 were stratified in gut feeding (GF; n = 33) and standard therapy (ST; n = 30) groups according to the postoperative therapy provided. The GF group received postoperative standard therapy and enteral stimulation by gut feeding, and the ST group received standard therapy only. The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score, incidence of the @entity1850 ( @entity1850 ), @entity881 ( @entity881 ), daily calories supply, complication rate, and outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS: @entity1 characteristics did not differ between groups when considering age and severity of the disease. All @entity1 underwent similar surgical interventions. @entity1850 and @entity881 were observed initially with the same frequency in both groups. Regression of @entity881 and a lower postoperative complication rate was observed more often in the GF group. Development of @entity358 was observed in 12.1% to 13.3% in both groups, irrespective of the time of surgery. Subsequently, @entity358 developed in 15.2% of GF @entity1 compared with 43.3% of ST @entity1 (P <0.05). @entity810 developed similarly in 33.3% of the GF @entity1 and in 26.7% of the ST @entity1 within 3 d after admission. @entity810 developed later on only in the ST group (26.7%, P <0.05). Wound- and catheter-related septic complications were considerably more frequent in the ST group (30.0%) than in the GF group (9.1%, P <0.05). Intensive care and hospital stays did not differ. Postoperative gut feeding was associated with 6.1% mortality in the GF compared with 26.7% in the ST (P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Enteral stimulation by gut feeding is an effective supplement in the postoperative therapy of @entity1 with @entity656 .
