A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 79 patients after gastrointestinal surgery prepared at the Department of General Surgery at E hospital. The objective of this study was to describe the status of 7 days postoperative nutrition. of patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. The results of this study showed that: 68.4% of patients after surgery on day 7 received a combination of intravenous and oral infusion; 8.9% of patients received complete oral nutrition. On the first day after surgery, the patient was fully nourished by intravenous infusion and the average energy was 1105 Kcal. In this early phase, the average total energy provided to the patient met 95.5% of the recommended needs. Intestinal and transitional phase (2-4 days post-surgery) total energy only meets 60-65% of recommendations. During the recovery period, the highest average total nutrient requirement was 1003.8 Kcal; reached 69.7% of the recommended demand.
