Early enteral nutrition (EEN) after surgery should be preferred to parenteral feeding, but its clinical use is limited for concerns about possible gastrointestinal (GI) adverse effects and feeding tube-related complications. Thus we evaluated our experience focusing on safety and tolerance of early postoperative jejunal feeding and possible risk factors for gastrointestinal adverse effects.

Abstract

Early enteral nutrition (EEN) after surgery should be preferred to parenteral feeding, but its clinical use is limited for concerns about possible gastrointestinal (GI) adverse effects and feeding tube-related complications. Thus we evaluated our experience focusing on safety and tolerance of early postoperative jejunal feeding and possible risk factors for gastrointestinal adverse effects.
