Management of ileus

Hi just had a question about ileus management. Would you consult surgery if CT imaging was reporting ileus? I reached out to surgery for this situation and they gave push back that there was nothing to do for them and refused to drop official recs. Not even NGT management. I assumed all ileus patients needed surgery eval.
