Effects of ileus tube application on survival quality of patients with left hemicolon cancerous obstruction
Abstract：Objective To investigate the effects of ileus tube application before operation on survival quality of patients with left hemicolon cancerous obstruction in order to provide theoretical basis for improvement of survival quality of patients with left hemicolon cancerous obstruction. Methods Thirty-eight patients with left hemi-colorectal cancer complicated by acute intestinal obstruction received transanal ileus tube after decompression lavage, who were treated by laparoscopy stage I radical resection and anastomosis,then the quality of life of patients before operation and at 3 months after operation was evaluated by means of HRQOL score. Results The ileus tubes were successfully placed in the 38 patients,and postoperative food-intake amount,body weight and serum albumin levels recovered quickly. Moreover the levels of leukocyte,CRP and PCT were decreased to normal levels after operation. The mean total scores of HRQOL scale before operation were (66. 7 ± 15. 4) points, which were significantly increased to (75. 6 ± 24. 7) points at 3 months after operation,moreover the survival quality of patients was significantly improved ,as compared with that before operation (P ＜0. 05). Conclusion The application of transanal ileus tube before operation in patients with left hemi-colorectal cancer receiving stage I radical resection and anastomosis has the advantsges of faster recovery after operation and higher life quality of patients.
