Brief Summary:
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare condition resulting from the loss of portions of the small intestine, and can cause a spectrum of metabolic and physiologic disturbances.The objective of this study was to determine the longterm survival and parenteral nutrition dependence of adult patients with SBS.
Detailed Description:
Short bowel syndrome (SBS), the most common form of intestinal failure, is a rare condition resulting from the loss of portions of the intestine, typically because of extensive surgical resection or loss of intestinal function. Patients with SBS often stuffer from intestinal insufficiency or intestinal failure because they are unable to maintain fluid and nutrient balances on a normal diet. SBS can cause various metabolic and physiologic disturbances. Although parenteral nutrition is a life-saving measure for many patients with SBS, patients with SBS is associated with decreased survival and parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence. Few studies have reported the survival and PN dependence in adult SBS patients in China.
