  • Title: [Plasma protein levels during postoperative parenteral feeding].
    Author: Herold G, Stephan B, Menzel T.
    Journal: Infusionsther Klin Ernahr; 1979 Jun; 6(3):157-60. PubMed ID: 110676.
    Abstract:
    In 58 adult intensive care patients, the concentration changes of some plasma proteins and of the immunoglobulins IgA, IgG and IgM were examined postoperatively under parenteral feeding. In three groups of patients with different operations (trepanation, gastrectomy, vascular surgery), the initial and subsequent values were not the same. A comparison with simultaneous nitrogen balances showed no complete agreement. Transferrin, retinol-binding protein and prealbumin seem to be suitable parameters for the measurement of catabolism.
