Perioperative Changes in Oral Function and Association With Oral Food Intake Status in Patients Undergoing Gastric and Oesophageal Cancer Surgery
This study uncovered a significant decrease in oral function in oesophageal cancer patients without postoperative oral food intake, suggesting a potential association between impaired oral motor function and delayed oral intake recovery. Accordingly, perioperative oral function management alongside oral hygiene care is advisable for early resumption of oral food intake.
