Rehabilitation therapy for short bowel syndrome

摘要

Conclusions Rehabilitation therapy for short bowel syndrome can improve patient nutritional status effectively and promote intestinal adaptation, providing a new hope for these patients. The therapeutic effects are related to the length of the residual small intestine, patient's age and duration between massive intestinal resection and start of the treatment. Early initiation of rehabilitation therapy promotes intestinal adaptation and increases patient's ability to wean from total parenteral nutrition. Objective To investigate the effect of rehabilitation therapy for short bowel syndrome on patient nutritional Status and intestinal adaptation.
