| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: The purpose was to analyze the effect of early enteral nutrition (EEN) support combined with chemotherapy on related complications and immune function in patients after radical gastrectomy. METHODS: 80 patients with gastric cancer treated in our hospital from March 2019 to March 2020 were selected as the research objects and divided into the experimental group and control group according to the random number table, with 40 cases in each group. The control group received chemotherapy only after surgery, while the experimental group received EEN on this basis. The total protein (TP), transferrin (TF), albumin (ALB), immune cells, and other indexes were measured in the two groups before and after treatment to analyze the effect of different treatment methods on the complications and immune function of patients after radical gastrectomy. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in gender ratio, average age, average BMI, pathological types, disease staging, and residence between the two groups (P > 0.05). The exhaust recovery time, total gastric tube drainage, fluid intake time, and hospitalization time in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the TP, TF, and ALB levels between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05), and the TP, TF, and ALB levels in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group after treatment (P < 0.05). The CD4+/CD8+, CD3+, and CD4+ levels in the experimental group after treatment were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.001). After treatment, the growth hormone levels in both groups significantly increased (P < 0.001), and the growth hormone level in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the KPS scores between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05), and the KPS score in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group after treatment (P < 0.001). The incidence of postoperative complications in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: EEN combined with chemotherapy is a reliable method to improve the immune function of patients after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer, which plays an important role in improving the physical state of patients and reducing the incidence of complications. Therefore, its further research will help to establish a better treatment plan for such patients.
