Clinical Trial Summary

Postoperative ileus is a perplexing problem for clinical surgeons. It occurs not only after abdominal surgery but also after any surgery that requires general anesthesia. Postoperative ileus is defined as the dysfunction of gastrointestinal motility after surgery, characterized by a decrease in, or stagnation of, intestinal peristalsis.


Description:

Common clinical manifestations include abdominal pain, abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting, delayed flatus, delayed defecation, and inability to consume orally. Postoperative ileus is an uncomfortable experience, enhances the possibility of postoperative complications, prolongs hospital stay, and increases the economic burden. Postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery is of great concern. There is currently an urgent need to improve postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function. The mechanism of Postoperative ileus varies, including autonomic regulation, inflammatory response, gastrointestinal hormones, and postoperative use of opioid drugs. Surgical gut damage destroys the intestinal barrier, stimulates the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, and enhances the release of inflammatory factors. These factors precipitate the occurrence of Postoperative ileus. The current use of laparoscopic techniques can reduce incision size and surgical trauma, enabling careful manipulation.
