ObjectivesTonsillectomy remains one of the commonest operations performed in children. Post-operative diet may affect post-tonsillectomy haemorrhage rate, although post-operative dietary advice varies. We undertook a systematic review of the published literature to assess if and how different post-operative diets were associated with differences in PTH rates following paediatric tonsillectomy, to provide an evidence base to inform individual otorhinolaryngologists' practice and for future guideline development.MethodsA systematic review of the published English literature of the PubMed, Medline and Cochrane Collaboration databases, using search terms used included 'post-tonsillectomy', 'diet', 'dietary advice', 'bleeding', 'haemorrhage', 'paediatric' &'children'.ResultsEight publications were included in the review, including 5 randomised controlled trials, 2 case-control studies and 1 cohort study. These involved 1039 patients with 545 patients following a restricted/non-additive diet after tonsillectomy and 494 patients following an unrestricted/additive diet. The average reported PTH rate of patients in the restricted diet groups was 2.3% and 0.8% in patients in the unrestricted diet groups, which is not statistically significant (p = 0.12, one tailed t-test).ConclusionPTH following paediatric surgery does not appear to be affected by different post-operative diets or regimes followed by patients. Clinicians should not change the advice provided regarding oral intake and diet following tonsillectomy surgery in children.
