Title: Postoperative Reduced Oral Feeding Can Increase Readmission Post Bariatric Surgery

Abstract

Objectives: Laparoscopic bariatric techniques and improved postoperative recovery regimens have reduced hospital stay; some patients continue to have prolonged admission for various reasons. This paper explores Objectives: whether postoperative oral feeding is a potential risk factor for lengthened hospitalization and readmission.

Methods: A prospective, double blinded, randomized investigation of 250 postoperative patients at King Hussein Hospital, King Hussein Medical City, Amman, Jordan, during the period March 2019-September 2021. Subjects (155 women and 95 men, aged 31-49, with an average of 36 years) were managed for

morbid obesity, and were assigned to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) or laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) groups. Subjects with perioperative hazards and previous bariatric techniques were ruled out. Early oral feeding with light hospital diet on the first day after surgery and full hospital diet in the second day after surgery were encouraged included subjects with hospital admission (3 days)

and group II included subjects with (>3 days) readmission spanned 30days after surgery. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to evaluate effect induced parameters on lengthened hospital admission and readmissions.

Results: The average period of hospitalization was 3 (2–4) days of hospital admission(HD), more days were recorded in 75/250 (30%) subjects: 40/150 (26.7%) LSG, and 35/100 (35%) LRYGB (P < 0.005). Reduced postoperative oral feeding lengthened hospitalization, and increased readmission risk. Readmission incidence was 6% (15/250 readmissions): 6/150 (4%) LSG, and 9/100 (9%) LRYGB (P >

0.05).

Conclusion: Reduced oral feeding is a risk factor for lengthened hospitalization and readmission.
