Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of bowel plication combined with early enteral nutrition (EEN) in the enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) of jejunal atresia (JA) neonates.
METHODSBetween January 2005 and January 2014, 58 neonates with JA underwent surgical treatment in Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. Their clinical data, including operation procedures, ages, birth weight, concomitant diseases, age at surgery, hospital stay, total parenteral nutrition (TPN), postoperative intestinal function recovery (the time to the first oral feeding and the time to oral feeding volume reaching 150 ml·kg·d), complications and reoperation, were retrospectively analyzed.
RESULTSAccording to the surgical procedures, the 58 neonates were divided into three groups: control group(18 cases, undergoing atretic segments resection and primary anastomosis), bowel plication group(19 cases, undergoing bowel plication after atretic segments resection and primary anastomosis) and bowel plication combined with EEN group (21 cases, undergoing bowel plication combined with EEN). No significant differences of ages, birth weight, age at operation, and concomitant diseases were found among 3 groups (all P>0.05). The time of hospital stay, the time to the first oral feeding, the time to oral feeding volume reaching 150 ml·kg·d, and the time of TPN in bowel plication group were significantly shorter than those of control group [(19.3±4.4) d vs. (22.7±3.1) d, t=2.696, P=0.011; (9.8±3.3) d vs. (12.5±3.0) d, t=2.630, P=0.013; (18.5±4.1) d vs. (21.5±2.5) d, t=2.726, P=0.011; (13.1±2.9) d vs. (15.0±2.3) d, t=2.219, P=0.033]. However, above parameters of bowel plication combined with EEN group were significantly shorter than those of bowel plication group [(15.3±3.5) d vs. (19.3±4.4), t=4.120, P=0.003; (7.7±2.2) d vs. (9.8±3.3) d, t=2.428, P=0.020; (14.8±2.5) d vs. (18.5±4.1) d, t=3.752, P=0.001; (9.5±3.0) vs. (13.1±2.9) d, t=4.370, P=0.000].
CONCLUSIONThe bowel plication combined with EEN contributes to the early use of intestinal function, shorten the time to the first oral feeding, and reduces the use of TPN, which can improve the recovery of jejunal atresia neonates.
