Filter by:Aim: Postoperative ileus after cesarean section is a problem that significantly prolongs hospital stay and increases perioperative costs. The ability of postoperative fennel tea consumption to produce bowel movement is unclear and needs to be studied. This study aimed to determine the effect of chewing gum and drinking fennel tea on intestinal motility after cesarean section. Methods: The study was conducted in postnatal care wards between January 2018 and April 2018. Simple randomization was used to assign women to the study arms. Data were collected during Pregnancy Constipation Diagnostic Scale, Data Collection and Follow-up Form were collected.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early mobilization with consumption of tea, coffee, and warm water on bowel movements in patients who had laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. Design: The study was a single-center, parallel, randomized, controlled trial. Setting: This study was carried out in the general surgery clinic of a university hospital in Türkiye. Metod: The participants were randomized into four equal groups: tea, coffee, arm water and control. At the 4th hour postoperatively, the patients in the intervention group were first mobilized after drinking 200 ml of tea, coffee or warm water within 15 minutes. The first mobilization and oral intake of the patients in the control group started at the 8th hour. Bowel movements, mobilization time, first flatulence, first stool removal and hospital stay of the patients were followed up. Data were collected with "Patient Information Form", "Glasgow Coma Scale", "Patient Mobilization Follow-up Form" and "Patient Undergone Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery Follow-Up Form". Hypothesis: H0-a: Early mobilization and tea consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. H0-b: Early mobilization and coffee consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy. H0-c: Early mobilization and consumption of warm water have no effect on the initial flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Postoperative ileus (POI) is one of the most common causes of prolonged hospital stays after abdominal surgery. The pathophysiology of POI is multifactorial and complex.It is known to be associated with sympathetic neural reflexes,local and systemic inflammatory mediators,and changes invarious neural and hormonal transmitters.Sympathetic (adrenergic) hyperactivity results in reduction of propulsive motility,and an increase in sphinctertone.Parasympathetic (cholinergic) hypoactivity results in adecrease in gastrointestinalmotility. Various agents called prokinetic drugs,including erythromycin, metoclopramide, cholinergic agents have been assessed in an effort to improved gastrointestinal motility. Mosapridecitrate is another prokinetic drug that selectively activates 5-HT4 receptors. Mosapride stimulates serotonin receptor in the digestive tract and increases acetylcholine release to promote upper digestive tract (stomach and duodenum) and lower digestive tract (colon) motility and gastric emptying without cardiac side effects. We therefore investigate the effect of mosapride on postoperative gastrointestinal motility after open and laparoscopic colectomy in a prospective randomized, controlled study in patients under going colectomy.
Research objectives To compare the efficacy of acupressure with no acupressure to examine time to first flatus in patient post cesarean section ; Acupressure at ST-36 Zusanli (lateral to anterior crest of tibia, in the tibialis anterior muscle) Research hypothesis Patients who received acupressure will have earlier flatus passage
Traditional postoperative care has been challenged recently to improve and speedup recovery (including the return of bowel function) such that patients can be discharged to home more quickly. This approach includes earlier mobilization of the patient, and introducing solid food sooner. Additionally, there is evidence in adults to suggest that "sham feeding" by chewing gum may also speed up bowel recovery so the patient may tolerate a solid diet earlier. The aim of this study is to determine if gum chewing can enhance bowel recovery in children who undergo abdominal surgery.
