Comparing early and late resumption of oral feeding after bowel surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates the timing of oral feeding resumption following small intestine surgery, focusing on the differences between early feeding initiated within 24 hours post-surgery and late feeding starting after 24-48 hours. The aim is to determine which approach leads to better recovery outcomes, including reduced hospital stay and lower rates of postoperative complications such as vomiting and anastomotic leaks. By analyzing patient recovery metrics, the study seeks to provide evidence-based recommendations for postoperative care.
