Abstract:
We have improved the standard naso-intestinal probe, the essence of which lies in the fact that at a distance of 60-70 cm from the end of the probe there are two balloons (proximal and distal balloons), the distance between which is 50 cm. space. This allows for selective decompression, drainage and enteral lavage of the area of intestinal sutures, which contributes to better healing of the inter-intestinal anastomosis and a decrease in the incidence of entero-entero anastomosis leaks. When analyzing the clinical results in the compared groups, we obtained a significant decrease in the incidence of entero-entero anastomosis suture failure from 16.7% (in group I) to 0% (in group II), as well as a decrease in postoperative mortality associated with it.
