![Figure 1: The I-FEED scoring system was created out of the need for a consistent objective definition of impaired postoperative GI function. I-Feed stands for: Intake, Feeling nauseated, Emesis, physical Exam, and Duration of symptoms. The scoring system attributes 0-2 points for each of the five components based on the clinical presentation of the patient and categorizes patients into Normal (0-2), Postoperative GI Intolerance (3-5), Postoperative GI Dysfunction (≥ 6).
