What this trial is about
This study aims to propose a novel, easy-to-operate intervention strategy that effectively improves defecation function after stoma reversal and to assess its impact on the gut microbiota.The efficacy and safety of antegrade placement of probiotics into the distal deserted intestine during prophylactic stoma to improve bowel function after stoma reversal were evaluated through randomized controlled clinical trials.Observing the changes in gut microbiota during the prophylactic stoma period, the impact of probiotics on the structure of gut microbiota, and exploring the correlation between gut genera and bowel function after stoma reversal.
