Indigestion after gastric tube insertion may be related to gastric emptying disorders, abnormal gastric acid secretion, and decreased intestinal motility.
1. Gastric emptying disorders The
insertion of gastric tube may affect the normal emptying function of the stomach, resulting in gastric contents not passing smoothly through the digestive tract, causing gastric juice retention and acid increase, resulting in dyspepsia.
2. Abnormal gastric acid secretion
Stress reaction during intubation, gastric reflux, etc. Factors may lead to abnormal gastric acid secretion, such as too much or too little, and abnormal gastric acid secretion may interfere with the digestive process,
resulting in dyspepsia
