Abstract: Objective To analyzes the risk factors of patients who did not exhaust 24 h after neurosurgery, and to provide guidance for early interventions to restore the patients' gastrointestinal function as soon as possible. Methods Patients who underwent neurosurgery were divided into ≤24 h exhaust group and >24 h exhaust group, and their demographics, intraoperative and postoperative details were compared. Results Among the 2 446 patients, 897 (36.7%) did not exhaust 24 h after neurosurgery. The variables associated with this condition in univariate analysis were gender (female vs male), estimated blood loss volume, whether to infuse suspended red blood cells, operation time (≥4 h vs <4 h), numerical rating scales (NRS) scores at rest and during movement at postoperative 6 h and 24 h (>3 vs ≤3), and whether there was nausea and vomiting at postoperative 6 h and 24 h (all P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that female gender (B=0.333, OR=1.395, P<0.001), operation time ≥4 h (B=0.383, OR=1.467, P<0.001), and nausea and vomiting at postoperative 24 h (B=0.585, OR=1.794, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for patients who did not exhaust 24 h after neurosurgery. Conclusion The results in this study suggested the clinicians should pay close attention to patients with independent risk factors (female gender, operation time ≥4 h, and nausea and vomiting at postoperative 24 h) to accelerate the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients undergoing neurosurgery.
