    Author: Pugaev AV, Timen LIa, Abdullaev EG, Tokaev ES.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1992 Apr; (4):19-22. PubMed ID: 1447879.
    Abstract:
    The authors used enteral tube feeding with a multicomponent balanced mixture "Ovolakt" in complex treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer in 69 patients among which 42 had complicated forms (stenosis, penetration, bleeding) and 27 had no complications. In establishing the diagnosis laboratory tests and radiological and endoscopic examination were conducted. The gastric secretory function was studied by intragastric pH-metry and pH-chromoscopy conducted during enteral feeding and in dynamics after it was ended. In most cases of cicatrization of the gastric and duodenal defects, hypo- and hyperchlorhydria respectively, persisted. Among 42 patients with complicated course of peptic disease, 21 were treated by operation and 19 received nonoperative treatment. The postulcer cicatrix formed 2-3 weeks after enteral feeding was ended in 27 cases of uncomplicated peptic ulcer and in 19 patients with complicated ulcers who were given nonoperative treatment. Complications after operative treatment were not encountered. Patients not treated by operation spent 20-30 days in the hospital.
