Abstract
Background: Gastro-duodenal perforation is a common surgical emergency requiring prompt surgical intervention, typically via omental patch repair. Traditional postoperative management involves delayed enteral nutrition to prevent stress on the gut; however, recent evidence supports early enteral feeding (EEF) to enhance recovery.
