Postoperative ileus (POI) after lumbar spine surgery is not uncommon. However, the incidence, severity and risk factors of ileus after spine surgery remain uncertain because there is not yet a prospective investigation using a subjective grading evaluation tool.
This study aims to prospectively investigate the incidence of POI after spine surgery by using the I-FEED scoring system. The severity of POI after spine surgery thus could be stratified and then an investigation of possible risk factors could be identified.
