短肠综合征的肠内营养支持

目的探讨短肠综合征患者肠内营养支持的临床意义、疗效及注意事项。方法回顾性总结1999至2005年收治的40例短肠综合征患者的临床资料。所有患者均存活至今,并随访2年以上。统计分析其肠内营养用量、费用、脱离肠外营养时间及目前营养状况。结果40例患者平均残存小肠（50．8±29．4）cm,脱离肠外营养平均时间为（29．1±9．2）个月。肠内营养用量为（3284．0±1408．8）kJ／d,其费用显著低于肠外营养（P〈0．01）。目前本组患者平均体质指数为（17．8±3．2）kg,／m^2,血红蛋白（113．3±14．8）g／L,血清白蛋白（35．0±4．1）g／L。平均大便次数为（3．4±1．7）次／d,平均大便量为（720．2±350．3）ml／d。结论肠内营养对于维持短肠综合征患者营养状况、减少并发症具有重要意义,但在具体实施时需掌握方法。

Experience on enteral nutrition in short bowel syndrome

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the significance, effects and precautions of enteral nutritional support in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS). METHODS: Clinical data of 40 SBS patients who were maintained on enteral nutrition (EN) for more than 2 years were retrospectively summarized. The cost of EN and parenteral nutrition (PN), the PN-free duration, and the current nutritional status of these patients were analyzed. RESULTS: The mean length of the remnant small bowel was (50.8 +/- 29.4) cm. All the patients currently lived on high-carbohydrate low-fat diet supplemented with EN (3284.0 +/- 1408.8) kJ/d, the cost was significantly lower than that of PN (P < 0.01). Mean PN-free duration was (29.1 +/- 9.2) months for these patients. The current defecation frequency and volume were (3.4 +/- 1.7) times/d and (720.2 +/- 350.3) ml/d, respectively. As for the patients' nutritional index, mean BMI, blood hemoglobin and serum albumin level were (17.8 +/- 3.2) kg/m(2), (113.3 +/- 14.8) g/L and (35.0 +/- 4.1) g/L, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Enteral nutrition is a cost-effective method for maintaining the nutritional status in patients with short bowel syndrome, but proper management in clinical practice to avoid diarrhea or other complications should be ensured.
