Postoperative ileus (POI) is a major cause of postoperative complications and prolonged hospitalization. Ghrelin, which is the endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor, has been found to stimulate gastric motility and accelerate gastric emptying. Ulimorelin is a synthetic ghrelin-receptor agonist, and has been shown to improve gastrointestinal transit in rats with POI.
