Overview
Ileus is most commonly seen in patients undergoing surgical treatment. The incidence and prevalence of ileus varies with the type of surgery performed. Patients with large incisions are at a relatively higher risk of developing ileus as compared to patients undergoing minor surgical procedures with small incisions. The incidence of ileus in patients undergoing laparotomy is approximately 9,000 per 100,000 cases worldwide, which is more common compared to other surgeries. The prevalence of ileus is not precisely known. However, it is estimated that that around 10 percent (10,000 per 100,000) of the people undergoing surgical procedures develop ileus that lasts more than three days. Postoperative ileus has been present in 15% of patients who had partial bowel resection, based on one study. Patients of all age groups may develop ileus but it is more commonly seen in the elderly due to underlying comorbidities. There is no racial predisposition for ileus and both men and women are affected equally.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
Ileus is most commonly seen in patients undergoing surgical treatment.[1][2][3][4][5]
- The incidence of ileus in patients undergoing laparotomy is approximately 9000 per 100,000 cases worldwide.
- The incidence of ileus in patients thoracic procedures is approximately 1400 per 100,000 cases worldwide.
- The incidence of ileus in patients undergoing orthopaedic procedures is approximately 1500 per 100,000 cases worldwide.
Prevalence
- Ileus is most commonly seen in patients undergoing surgical treatment. Ileus is a common complication in the postoperative setting and is often considered a normal sequelae of surgery and majority of the cases are not reported. Postoperative ileus has been present in 15% of patients who had partial bowel resection, based on one study.[5]
- Although no precise data is available regarding the prevalence of ileus, the following data gives an estimate of ileus lasting longer than 3 days in the postoperative setting. [2][1]
- It is estimated that that around 10 percent of the patients (or 10,000 per 100,000 cases) undergoing surgical procedures develop ileus lasting more than 3 days.
- In the United States, approximately 2.7 million patients developed postoperative ileus lasting more than 1 day.
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop ileus.
- Ileus is more commonly seen in elderly patients due to underlying comorbidities.
Race
There is no racial predisposition to ileus.
Gender
Ileus has no gender predisposition and affects both men and women equally.
