NCT04057599

Brief Summary

Postoperative ileus (POI) after lumbar spine surgery is not uncommon. However, the incidence, severity and risk factors of ileus after spine surgery remain uncertain because there is not yet a prospective investigation using a subjective grading evaluation tool.

Detailed Description

This study aims to prospectively investigate the incidence of POI after spine surgery by using the I-FEED scoring system. The severity of POI after spine surgery thus could be stratified and then an investigation of possible risk factors could be identified.
