Mechanical Bowel Preparation
in Elective Colorectal Surgery
Is it evidence based ?

BackgroundMortality of colorectal surgery is mainly due to sepsisVery high mortality (>20%) before the introduction of iv antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation
Glenn F, et al, Ann Surg 1966
Decrease the bacterial loadImproving bowel handlingEnable palpation of whole bowelAvoid mechanical disruption of anastomosis by well-formed stoolFacilitate the on-table colonoscopy
Precipitate intestinal obstructionSpillage of bowel contentElectrolyte and osmolarity disturbance
Current StatusNow, more than 99% of colorectal surgeons routinely employed mechanical bowel preparation
Zmora O, et al, Am Surg 2003
In my hospitalLow residual diet 3 days beforeFluid diet 1 day beforeNaPO4 the day before OT
Is it really necessary?Primary anastomosis may be safe in an unprepared bowel in obstructed colon (emergency operation)

ResultsSignificantly more anastomotic leakage in patients receiving mechanical bowel prep when compared with no prepIncreased septic complications and mortalities in patients receiving mechanical bowel prep, but not statistically significant
ProblemsMainly use PEG, effect of other form of bowel prep?Antibiotics and mechanical bowel prep introduced at the same time, how about bowel prep alone?The results are confined to the open surgery, role in lap surgery?

ConclusionNo good evidence (level I or II) so far from literature showed mechanical bowel prep can reduce complicationsActually, it may be more dangerous than no bowel prep in elective open colorectal surgeryThe applications of studies are limited by their power and methods
Current ConsensusBefore further powerful evidence from literatureRoutine use of bowel prep is still the common practice
Any changes we can made?
? NaPO4 instead of PEG
? Selective bowel preparationNot in right hemicolectomyNot in endoscopically obstructed lesionsFavor in lap surgery
