Brief Summary: Patients undergoing major abdominal surgery are at highest risk for developing postoperative ileus POI occurring in nearly all cases Signs and symptoms of POI may include abdominal distention bloating persistent abdominal pain nausea andor vomiting delayed passage or inability to pass flatus or stool and inability to tolerate a solid diet This study will test the ability of alvimopan 6 mg or 12 mg given 2 hours before the scheduled start of surgery to hasten the recovery of GI function in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery bowel resection or abdominal hysterectomy
Detailed Description: Postoperative ileus POI is temporary slowing down or stopping of bowel function and a slowing down of movement of contents of the intestines This functional impairment persists for a variable duration following surgery usually resolving within 1 day in the small intestine 1 to 3 days in the stomach and 3 to 5 days in the colon When POI persists for more than 5 days it is generally considered severe sometimes referred to as complicated or prolonged POI and increases the risk for related morbidity No drug therapy has been shown to consistently shorten the duration of POI This study is designed to demonstrate that alvimopan a novel peripherally acting mu opioid receptor antagonist accelerates the recovery of GI function in patients undergoing bowel resection of hysterectomy
