[Advantages of early nourishment after cesarean section].
Nothing seems to slow down the postoperative passage of the intestines so much as an empty stomach. For this reason the authors have for three years been giving special attention to early food provision following cesarean section as a stimulus to peristaltic movements. They analysed 150 deliveries of women with cesarean section to whom light parenteral diet was applied immediately after the operation and compared the results obtained with those from the control group of 150 women with cesarean section treated from 1972 to 1973 when only intravenous infusion was administered. A significantly quicker appearance of gases was observed in the women on early parenteral diet than in the control group (the average time 34:74h) and the first stool was recorded much earlier in the first than in the second group (56:67h). Prostigmin was administered only exceptionally. Neither in the first nor in the second group did surgical intervention for postoperative ileus prove necessary.
