摘      要：Objective This study aims to explore the effect of vacuum sealed drainage on the recovery of gastrointestinal function in gastric patients after radical gastrectomy. Methods One hundred and twenty patients who received radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer were randomly divided into two *** in the control group received continuous gastrointestinal decompression to drain the gastric juices after radical gastrectomy,whereas patients in the treatment group received vacuum sealed *** postoperative variables between the two groups were compared,including time of bowel sound reoccurrence,time of the first flatus,indwelling time of gastric tube,days of hospitalization,and complications,such as anastomotic leakage,intestinal obstruction,wound infection,pulmonary infection,fever, and *** 13.0 was used to analyze the data. Results Significant differences in the following variables were observed in patients between the two groups:time of bowel sound reoccurrence,time of the first flatus,indwelling time of gastric tube,and length of hospitalization of the *** value of each of these variables was much smaller in the treatment group than in the control group(P0.05). However,a significant differences were observed in the incidence of pulmonary infection,fever,and pharyngitis among the patients between the two groups(P0.05),with much lower incidence of the variables in the treatment group than in the control group. Conclusions Vacuum sealed drainage used in gastric cancer patients after radical gastrectomy can accelerate the recovery of gastrointestinal function and reduce postoperative ***,it shortens the indwelling time of the gastric tube, thereby making the patients feel comfortable without the disturbance from the gastric tube.
