[Nutrition of patients operated for complicated gastroduodenal ulcers at the early postoperative period].

The investigation is based on an analysis of results of treatment of 102 patients after an emergency resection of the stomach for complicated gastroduodenal ulcers. The probe was inserted into the jejunum intraoperatively. The period of enteral probe nutrition (EPN) was 5-7 days. At the early postoperative period in patients who had undergone the emergency resection of the stomach EPN is an effective method of nutrition maintenance as compared with the infusion-transfusion therapy. The method is simple and open to general use, and is economically advantageous under conditions of any hospital.
