For patients with gastroesophageal varices in Liver Cirrhosis,, there is no clear guideline and consensus on when to start eating after endoscopic treatment. In 2015, a randomized controlled study in Taiwan of China confirmed that compared with liquid diet given 48 h after endoscopic treatment, liquid diet given 4 h and started enteral nutrition would not increase the risk of rebleeding, and could improve the nutritional status of patients. However, some patients after endoscopic treatment would suffer from post-sternal pain, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and other discomforts, affecting appetite and delay the diet time. Based on the above research background, we observed and evaluated the safety and effectiveness of early enteral nutrition in patients with cirrhotic esophageal and gastric varices after endoscopic treatment, and analyzed the influencing factors of enteral nutrition in patients with cirrhotic esophageal and gastric varices after endoscopic treatment, so as to further clarify the optimal time for patients to eat after endoscopic treatment.
