Abstract
Artificial nutrition in the postoperative phase is the method of choice for providing adequate nutrients to patients in the so-called post-aggressive metabolism. The method of artificial nutrition is not set and the doctor must decide between parenteral application of nutrients using a central venous catheter with its attendant problems, or enteral nutrition through a fine-bore feeding tube placed in the proximal jejunum. In a prospective randomized study of 60 patients after elective colonic surgery we assessed the value of early postoperative enteral feeding vs parenteral feeding.
