Ileus is a common complication after abdominal surgery and is often seen after GDV surgery. Common causes of ileus, such as pain, electrolyte abnormalities, peritonitis, or hypoperfusion should be excluded prior to pharmacological therapy. Metoclopramide (1–2 mg/kg/day as an IV constant rate infusion) can be used in this situation as a prokinetic, once other causes of ileus have been excluded.
