Abstract: Objective To observe the effect of early enteral nutrition on the recovery and stress reaction after the operation of colon carcinoma.Methods 93 patients with colon carcinoma were divided into enteral nutrition group and parenteral nutrition group.Patients of EN group were given nutrition preparation through the jejunal nutrient canal beginning in the first day after operation and reduced the venous support gradually.Those of PN group were given parenteral nutritional supports from the the first day after operation until oral feeding.Results There were no significant differences between the EN group and PN group in the nutritional status.Both the first postoperative anoretum exhaust time and defecation time(52.9 ± 17.6;67.2 ± 9.3) h in group EN were less than that(71.4 ± 13.8;83.6 ± 10.1) h in group PN,there were significant differences between two groups(t = 2.58,3.56,all P＜0.05).The CRP in EN group after operation was obviously lower than preoperation(P＜0.05).Conclusion The early enteral nutrition could lower the stress reaction and promote the recovery of gastrointestinal tract function.
