After esophagectomy and reconstruction, intestinal ischemia or intestinal paralysis, lack of intestinal stimulation and oral nutrition can aggravate atrophy and impair the permeability of intestinal mucosa, which not only makes it easy for intestinal bacteria and endotoxin to migrate and enter the blood, At present, early intestinal feeding has been proved to protect the integrity of the intestinal mucosa and improve the postoperative systemic inflammatory response and infection rate of patients, especially pneumonia. Relying on parenteral nutrition, coupled with postoperative exhaust gas or defecation with drugs, can be force-fed. In addition to the side effects of gastrointestinal discomfort (nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain), parenteral nutrition is likely to cause blood sugar instability and liver index. Abnormal and even increased infection rate, gastrointestinal force feeding was delayed for 36-48 hours before starting. At present, there is no research on the effect of early force-feeding on gastrointestinal motility. Therefore, this study aims to explore whether early gastrointestinal force-feeding can not only reduce the infection rate and systemic inflammation, but also promote gastrointestinal motility. Without using drugs, Reduce drug side effects and abdominal discomfort, advance the time of gastrointestinal force-feeding, reduce complications of postoperative lung and wound anastomosis leakage, complete postoperative care for esophageal cancer, and reduce postoperative mortality.
