Despite this, some 10-30% of patients undergoing abdominal surgery will experience postoperative ileus or nausea/vomiting. In addition to increasing the length of hospital stay, these complications increase patient discomfort and, above all, the risk of inhalation pneumonitis. With the advent of enhanced rehabilitation, patients are receiving less drainage, particularly nasogastric drainage, which is now virtually outlawed in scheduled sub-mesocolic abdominal surgery. In a recent international multicenter study of patients undergoing colorectal surgery, the authors reported that less than 10% of patients received a nasogastric tube routinely, and that 20% received it for clin
