Background and aims: The effects of ileostomy construction and colonic bypass on the general nutritional status of the patients have not yet received much attention. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of a diverting ileostomy formation, on the nutritional intake, body composition and nutritional status biochemical markers of patients with a newly formed ileostomy. Methods: This was an observational study. Patients scheduled for elective rectosigmoid resection at a surgical unit of a public university hospital, were considered for study inclusion. Patients in whom a diverting ileostomy was created were assigned to the ileostomy group (n = 41), and patients who underwent rectosigmoid resection without requiring a diverting ileostomy served as a control group (n = 37). Anthropometric characteristics, body composition, dietary intake and biochemical markers representative of nutritional status were assessed preoperatively and at 40 days postdischarge (NCT02036346). Results: Anthropometric and body composition characteristics (weight, BMI and body fat percentage) significantly declined from 75 to 71.6 kg, 26.9 to 25.6 kg/m2 and 28.6 to 25.6% respectively (p = 0.001 for all) in the ileostomy group, between the preoperative stage and 40 days postdischarge from the hospital. Furthermore, a significant reduction in mean daily energy intake from 1871 to 1713 kcal/day (p = 0.046) was observed in the ileostomy group 40 days after discharge compared to preoperative assessment. No significant changes in the above measured parameters were observed in the non-ileostomy group. Conclusion: Diverting ileostomy can have a negative effect on general nutritional status and dietary intake of patients, during the first postoperative period. Nutritional assessment might need to be included in the routine clinical management of this patient category to prevent weight loss and impaired energy intake. © 2020 European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism
