Overview
Common risk factors in the development of ileus include older age, electrolyte abnormalities, previous history of abdominal surgery, prolonged abdominal or pelvic surgery, laparotomy, lower Gastrointestinal tract procedures, delayed postoperative enteral nutrition, use of preoperative albumin, postoperative deep venous thrombosis, diabetic ketoacidosis, history of chronic opiates use and hypothyroidism. Less common risk factors include spinal cord injury (specifically thoracic cord), severe illness like sepsis, obesity, peripheral vascular disease and development of some postoperative complications.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors
Common risk factors in the development of ileus include:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
- Older age
- Electrolyte abnormalities
- Previous history of abdominal surgery
- Prolonged abdominal or pelvic surgery
- Laparotomy and lower GI procedures
- Delayed enteral nutrition
- Use of preoperative albumin
- Postoperative deep venous thrombosis
- Hypothyroidism
- Diabetic ketoacidosis
- Chronic use of opiates such as morphine
Less common risk factors
Less common risk factors in the development of ileus include:[7][8][9]
- Severe illness such as sepsis
- Spinal cord injury (Thoracic cord)
- Obesity
- Peripheral vascular disease
- Any common complications arising from surgery can increase the risk of ileus. These complications include:
- Pneumonia
- Intra-abdominal abscess
- Peritonitis
- Bleeding disorder
- Excessive use of Analgesics for postoperative pain control
