Energy Substrate Utilization in Infants Receiving Total Parenteral Nutrition with Different Glucose to Fat Ratios

Total parenteral nutrition in surgical infants.

Introduction The newborn infant is in a 'critical epoch' of development. Nutritional deprivation may adversely affect not only the infant as a whole but also individual organs, notably the brain, leading to stunted physical and intellectual development [l]. In the surgical infant malnutrition is associated with increased morbidity and mortality; therefore, it is important that nutritional integ...

Neuroimaging identifies increased manganese deposition in infants receiving parenteral nutrition.

BACKGROUND Manganese, an essential metal for normal growth and development, is neurotoxic on excessive exposure. Standard trace element-supplemented neonatal parenteral nutrition (PN) has a high manganese content and bypasses normal gastrointestinal absorptive control mechanisms, which places infants at risk of manganese neurotoxicity. Magnetic resonance (MR) relaxometry demonstrating short T1 ...

Urea kinetics in neonates receiving total parenteral nutrition.

Urea kinetics were measured on 10 occasions in eight neonates who had not received an oral intake from birth and were maintained on total parenteral nutrition. After a prime/intermittent oral dose of 15N15N-urea over 14 hours urine was collected every three to four hours, urea isolated, and kinetics determined from the plateau level of enrichment in urea, measured by isotope ratio mass spectrom...

Comparative Survey of Complications of Total Parenteral Nutrition(TPN) and Partial Parenteral Nutrition(PPN) in Patients with Digestive Disorders

این پژوهش یک مطالعه توصیفی تحلیلی بوده که به منظور بررسی و مقایسه عوارض تغذیه کامل و نسبی وریدی در بیماران مبتلا به اختلالات جراحی و داخلی گوارش انجام شده است. تعداد ۳۶ نفر بیمار در شش بیمارستان وابسته به سه دانشگاه علوم پزشکی تهران، شهید بهشتی و علوم پزشکی ایران بطور تصادفی انتخاب و با استفاده از چک لیست و مشاهده عوارض وابسته به کاتتر - اختلالات آب و الکترولیت ها۔ اختلالات متابولیک و علایم عفو...
