Symptoma

Total Parenteral Nutrition

  • Massive Splenomegaly

    We present a unique case of massive splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, and lymphadenopathy caused by lipid-laden macrophages in a 50 year old white female with short-bowel syndrome treated with long-term total parenteral nutrition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Noncompliance

    Noncompliance and an inability to discontinue TPN earlier increase the likelihood of complications. Discontinuation of parenteral support requires an assessment of gastrointestinal anatomy and absorption capacity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Lymphadenopathy

    We present a unique case of massive splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, and lymphadenopathy caused by lipid-laden macrophages in a 50 year old white female with short-bowel syndrome treated with long-term total parenteral nutrition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Intravenous Drugs

    The purpose of this study was to obtain Y-site compatibility data on intravenous drugs and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) relevant for children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Hypoxemia

    Pulmonary function tests showed severe ventilatory defects, arterial hypoxemia, and decreased oxygen saturations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Pleural Effusion

    Comparison of the pleural effusion analysis and the content of the parenteral nutrition led to the final conclusion that the effusion was due to a leakage of parenteral nutrition instead of chylothorax. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Skin Lesion

    She was found to have hypozincemia and eventually exhibited prompt resolution of skin lesions after zinc was added to TPN. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Dysarthria

    Two months later, she developed dysarthria and muscular weakness, and could not maintain her posture. The level of serum selenium was extremely low. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Prothrombin Time Normal

    Serum liver enzyme levels and prothrombin time normalized in the 5 months following ISBTx. Liver biopsy showed marked steatosis, slight cholestasis, and mild bridging fibrosis before ISBTx. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Pleural Effusion

    Comparison of the pleural effusion analysis and the content of the parenteral nutrition led to the final conclusion that the effusion was due to a leakage of parenteral nutrition instead of chylothorax. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
