Feasibility of perioperative volatile organic compound breath testing for prediction of paralytic ileus following laparoscopic colorectal resection

Abstract: Funding: NIHR Colorectal Therapies, Healthcare Technology Cooperative. Gastrocheck instrument, breath sample bags and staff training were supplied by Bedfont Scientific Ltd (Maidstone, UK) on a free research loan basis with no influence over study design or delivery, data analysis or this report. Conflicts of interest statement: All authors confirm no financial declarations for this paper. What does this add to the literature? There is considerable interest in volatile organic compounds (VC) as a non-invasive … Show more

“…Francis et al [ 47 ] carried out a feasibility study also looking at whether breath VOC analysis (SIFT-MS) could predict postoperative ileus after laparoscopic colorectal tumour resection. As with the first paper, a separate analysis looked into patients receiving enemas and mechanical bowel preparation and the measured abundance of VOCs.…”

“…However, many of the volatiles present in exhaled breath including acetate, acetone, and ammonia are also major products of microbial metabolism (38)(39)(40). A catalog of the VOCs of exhaled breath that are influenced by the gut microbiota would be important for identifying reliable biomarkers of human disease in breath.…”
