Preoperative Intestinal Training Using Antegrade Ileostomy Infusion
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
This research study is being conducted to study the effect of infusing your contents from your ostomy bag back into your intestine to re-train them prior to the ostomy takedown operation, which is a surgery to reverse your ostomy to put your intestine back together. Because your intestine past the ostomy hasn't seen any intestinal content for several weeks to months before the takedown operation, it is no longer used to handling the daily work of processing intestinal content and will take time to recover its normal function after surgery. We hope to speed up this process by training them before your planned surgery.
