Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A prospective study to compare the postoperative ileus in open and laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery through the determination of the time the patient takes to pass flatus, pass stool, bowel movement, oral intake, the time of hospital stay and total hospital costs. Postoperative ileus (POI) is one of the major focus of concern for surgeons, hospital executives, quality assurance directors as well as patients because of its role in causing patient distress, discomfort, and morbidity, leading to an increase in the duration of hospital stay and cost of care.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All patients aged ≥18 years scheduled to undergo gastric and colorectal cancer resection surgery at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, West China Hospital between 2019 to 2020 will be screened for eligibility. The inclusion criteria for the study will be the patient undergoing elective gastric cancer surgery, have the American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grade ≤ III, alert consciousness, and BMI, and accurate preoperative diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma on the basis of computed tomography CT scan report, Gastroscopy and Histopathological reports. Exclusion criteria will be those who cannot participate in study assessments owing to the language barrier, dementia or postoperative delirium; previously received palliative surgery, develops early postoperative bowel obstruction, Anastomotic leakage or Gastroparesis, those requiring reoperation for any other indication before the commencement of formal assessment for PPOI. Those requiring more than 30 minutes of adhesiolysis. Each patient will be approached during preoperative counseling on an individual basis by one of the authors (YZ)
