Sustained elimination of parenteral support in adult patients with under 60 cm of small intestine: A case series
We present five case studies examining weaning of PS in adult patients with <60-cm small bowel and partial or full colon who were enrolled in a multidisciplinary adult intestinal rehabilitation program. The case studies demonstrate weaning can occur >2 years after initial assessment and enrollment in an expert program. The ability of the program to focus on individualized care and frequent patient communication is key to PS weaning in patients with SBS.PMID:37898826 | DOI:10.1002/ncp.11078
