Gastric perforation can usually be discharged from the hospital in 1 to 3 weeks after the surgery, depending on the patient’s postoperative recovery. As gastric perforation surgery is prone to complications, such as intragastrointestinal hemorrhage, intra-abdominal hemorrhage, gastroparesis, etc., it is necessary to be hospitalized for observation. If the patient recovers well after the operation, he/she can usually be discharged from the hospital in about 1 week; if the patient develops serious abdominal infection, the hospitalization time will be relatively prolonged, and usually he/she can be discharged from the hospital in about 2 to 3 weeks after the operation. After the operation, it is recommended that patients with gastric perforation get out of bed as soon as possible. Usually, they need to rest in bed on the first day after the operation, and then they can move around at the bedside on the second day, and as their condition recovers, they can increase the amount of activity, which can help to promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function, prevent intestinal adhesion after the operation, and prevent the emergence of deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs. Gastric perforation patients need to closely observe the vital signs after surgery, if there is discomfort, should promptly inform the doctor to avoid adverse effects.
