AIMS & OBJECTIVES:1) To evaluate the effect of gum chewing on the duration of postoperative ileus following abdominal surgeries. Patients in study group (n=25) were asked to chew one stick of METHODS: chewing gum for 30 min four times a day until passing atus while the control group (n=25) patients were kept nil per orally until the passage of atus. RESULTS: Based on the results it can be concluded that on chewing gum it was seen that the duration of overall recovery of bowel movements in form of appearance of bowel sound, passing atus and motion and feeling of hunger, occurred early in patients chewing gum CONCLUSION:Gum chewing after abdominal surgeries has shown to signicantly reduced postoperative ileus as judged by the appearance of bowelsounds ansd passage of atus as well as stools.
