title: [Clinical assessment of the efficacy of early enteral nutrition with the help of "peptamen" nutriment in patients who underwent gastrectomy due to stomach cancer].
abstract: The protein-energetic insufficiency in cancer patients aggravates the course of the disease and leads to various complications in the post-operative period including lethal outcomes. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficiency of the use of the Peptamen compound in the early post-operative period in patients with moderate and serious degrees of protein-energetic insufficiency, who underwent gastrectomy due to stomach cancer. Two groups of patients were studied differing by the method of nutritional support. The use of the Peptamen compound in the early post-operative period leads to the improvement of the absorption of nutrients, increase in the functional activity of the intestine and immunomodulation, and as a result of this, to the reduction of post-operative complications and fast restoration of homeostasis.
