Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
After having abdominal surgery, patients often experience a lack of bowel function that can cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal swelling, pain, and/or discomfort. This is known as "post-operative ileus." Patients are usually not allowed to leave the hospital until their doctor is sure that their bowel function has returned. The goal of this clinical research study is to compare using a rocking chair to the standard of care in improving post-operative ileus after abdominal surgery.
