Early enteral nutrition in preventing functional delayed gastric emptying after subtotal gastrectomy / 肠外与肠内营养

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the role of early enteral nutrition in preventing functional delayed gastric emptying(FDGE)after radical distal subtotal gastrectomy.Methods:A retrospective review was performed in clinical data of patients with gastric cancer undergoing radical distal subtotal gastrectomy in our hospital from March 2004 to March 2008.There were 71 patients receiving early enteral nutrition (group EEN,n=71) after operation and 107 patients receiving parenteral nutrition (group PN,n=107) at the same time.The outcomes of FDGE between of two groups were compared.Results:The incidence of FDGE in group EEN was 1.4%(1/71).And the incidence of FDGE in group PN was 10.3%(11/107).There was significant difference between the group EEN and the group PN (P
