Perioperative nutrition support : Who and how REVIEW

چکیده

UTRITION SUPPORT—total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and enteral nutrition (tube feedings)—is not for everybody undergoing surgery. Although giving nutrition support before and after surgery can decrease postoperative morbidity and mortality, several well-designed studies showed that certain subsets of surgical patients suffer worse outcomes with TPN than with standard care.1–4 Therefore, it is imperative to carefully choose which patients should receive nutrition support and by what route. In this article we briefly review the literature on this controversial topic and describe methods for assessing nutritional status and determining which patients should receive perioperative nutrition support. We also discuss how to supply nutrition to patients who require perioperative nutrition support.
