OBJECTIVETo explore the influence factor of stress ulcer bleeding(SUB) in postoperative rectal cancer patients.

METHODSClinical data of rectal cancer patients undergoing operation in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into case group and control group according to the postoperative occurrence of SUB. Univariate analysis combined with multivariate analysis were used to evaluate the influence factors.

RESULTSChronic diseases incidence of case group was higher than that of control group. Except for renal failure, the incidence of postoperative complications of case group was higher than that of control group. Univariate analysis revealed that age, chronic disease, preoperative, and postoperative complications had statistical significant differences(P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified that age(OR=2.893, 95%CI:1.118-5.543), drinking history(OR=3.839, 95%CI:1.012-6.654), preoperative chronic disease(OR=4.646, 95%CI:1.872-8.892), intraoperative bleeding volume(OR=5.129, 95%CI:2.829-9.328), occurrence of severe complications after surgery(OR=6.576, 95%CI:4.539-13.278), postoperative application of glucocorticoid(OR=2.978, 95%CI:1.013-4.512), preoperative application of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(OR=2.126, 95%CI:1.287-7.636) were risk factors for SUB in rectal cancer patients after operation. Postoperative prophylactic use antacids(OR=0.102, 95%CI:0.017-0.196) was protective factor for SUB patients.

CONCLUSIONEffective measures should be taken for high-risk patients, in order to improve the prognosis of patients.
