Cardiovascular complications of parenteral nutrition.
During a 3 year period, 1987-1989, we encountered three major complications associated with parenteral nutrition leading to congestive cardiac failure--acute beriberi, right atrial and superior vena caval thrombosis, and fungal endocarditis. Unrecognized, these are invariably fatal. Persistent vomiting from intestinal obstruction led to the development of thiamine deficiency in the patient with...
متن کاملEnteral nutrition led to fewer postoperative complications than did parenteral feeding in gastrointestinal cancer.
P a t i e n t s 317 patients who were ≥ 18 years of age (mean age 64 y, 58% men) and had weight loss ≥ 10% of usual body weight in the previous 6 months, histologically confirmed cancer, and planned major elective surgery. Exclusion criteria were hepatic, renal, or cardiac dysfunction; Karnofsky performance status < 60; pregnancy; ongoing infection; and intestinal anastomosis of the large bowel...
متن کاملEarly parenteral feeding of amino acids.
Serial 24 hour balance studies of nitrogen and energy were carried out over 10 days in two groups of ventilator dependent preterm infants, of comparable weight and gestational age. In one group (n = 10) a parenteral amino acid source (Vamin 9) was started within 24 hours of birth, and in the other group (n = 11) it was not started until 72 hours. The feeding protocol was otherwise identical. Th...
متن کاملParenteral nutrition compared with transpyloric feeding.
Fifty nine infants of birthweight less than 1500 g were allocated alternately to initial total parenteral nutrition or to transpyloric feeding. Mortality was similar between the two groups. Ten of the 29 infants in the transpyloric group failed to establish full enteral nutrition during the first week of life. No beneficial effects on growth were shown in infants receiving parenteral nutrition....
متن کاملParenteral nutrition-associated liver complications in children.
Parenteral nutrition is a life-saving therapy for patients with intestinal failure. It may be associated with transient elevations of liver enzyme concentrations, which return to normal after parenteral nutrition is discontinued. Prolonged parenteral nutrition is associated with complications affecting the hepatobiliary system, such as cholelithiasis, cholestasis, and steatosis. The most common...
