lightswitch automatic refetch of entity after updated

In a mssql database a trigger is updating a field in a table after some other field from the same row is being updated. In a lightswitch application after the update is executed the values updated by the trigger are not shown automatically in the screen, only after hitting the refresh button they are shown. What would be the most efficient way to accomplish that after updating the entity is refetched, without having to call the refresh button?

If possible I would not use the trigger.

If you must use the trigger, you can call .Refresh() on the Entity programatically.
