[Evaluation of the use of caerulein (ceruletide) in the postoperative of abdominal surgery].

In order to evaluate the efficacy of Caerulein in the postoperative stage of abdominal surgery, 25 patients received 0.3 mcg/kg intravenously every 4 hours. Bowel Movements, passage of gases, first evacuation and general improvement were compared to 25 patients in similar conditions who didn't receive the drug. The study group showed an earlier appearance of intestinal motility as compared to the control group. This contributed in a relevant matter to an earlier discharge from the hospital. The differences with the control group were statistically significative. The benefits of the drug in the management of the postoperative stage of abdominal surgery are discussed.
