- Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common issue following pancreatoduodenectomy, prompting this study to look for related risk factors in a Colombian patient population.
- The research included 205 patients, finding that 25.85% suffered from DGE, with significant associations linked to smoking, high doses of hydromorphone, elevated bilirubin levels, and type B pancreatic fistulas.
- Key risk factors identified for developing DGE include a history of smoking, opioid use greater than 0.6 mg daily, bilirubin levels over 6 mg/dL, and the presence of a type B pancreatic fistula.
