Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of ileus include early mobilization, early mobilization, avoidance of insertion of Ryle's tube (nasogastric tube), early oral feeding (within 2-3 hours) with high carbohydrate fluid, limited parenteral fluids, avoidance of pain medications such as opiates, epidural catheter for postoperative analgesia.
