Statistical Analysis
RESULTS
The
mean
(s.d.)
length of stay was
95(49) (median 9)
days
in
the
intervention group
and
140(145)
(median
9)
days
among controls. The
variability
within
groups
was
larger
than
expected.

(Control Group)
29 patient (48
percents) of 60
patients
Some 34 patients
(65 percent) in
the chewing gum
group had passed
flatus within 2 days
of surgery compared
with 30 (50 per
cent) of controls
(P = 0044)
Time to first flatus
was more than 3
days in five patients
in the intervention
Gastric Emptying
Inflammatory
markers
soluble
tumour necrosis factor receptor 1
(TNFRSF1A)
Plasma levels of
TNFRSF1A
were
significantly lower
at 4 h after the start
of surgery in the
intervention
group
compared with the
control
group:
0,74 (027298)
versus
0,92 (029219)
Complication
Sixty
of
120
patients
were
discharged without
complications.
In
total,
12
complications
that
needed
reintervention under
general. anaesthesia
were registered. Two
patients
in
the
chewing gum group
had an anastomotic
leak, whereas eight
control patients had
an anastomotic leak

Discussions
Complication
The reduced
incidence of surgical
complications (acute
abdominal wall dehiscence and anastomotic
leakage) was
surprising and could be explained in several
ways.
POI increases intra-abdominal pressure risk factor
for acute abdominal wall dehiscence
ileus potential risk factor for anastomotic leakage
TNF- and IL-10 expressed locally at the
anastomotic
site increasing the risk of anastomotic leakage
IL-8 and
TNFRSF1A
levels was
decreased in
the intervention
gum chewing
had a significant
effect on the
rate of grade IIIb
complications
further
studies are
needed to
address
these
Conclusion
Gum chewing is a safe and simple treatment
to reduce POI, and is associated with
a reduction in systemic inflammatory
markers and complications.

Abstract
Randomization (2)
Discussion
POI is an important clinical problem that is
associated with increased healthcare costs
Several strategies have been developed
over the years to reduce the incidence of
POI, such as early oral feeding, minimally
invasive surgery and epidural anaesthesia
In the present study, gum chewing before
and
after surgery reduced POI, but did not
affect length of hospital stay. There is still
no consensus regarding the effects of gum
chewing on POI after colorectal surgery.
