  • Title: [Exclusive parenteral nutrition via a peripheral vein in the treatment of severe protracted diarrhea in early childhood. Personal experience and clinical contribution].
    Author: Gobio Casali L, Astolfi R, Gambaretto G.
    Journal: Pediatr Med Chir; 1984; 6(1):87-93. PubMed ID: 6442414.
    Abstract:
    Total peripheral parenteral nutrition (T.P.P.N.) in the treatment of prolonged serious diarrhea in infancy is discussed. T.P.P.N. was employed for a period from 7 to 38 days in 18 particular diarrhoic infants with a good result in the 89%. Authors stress out conditions to obtain the best tolerance to glucidic, protidic and lipidic components. Limits of this therapy are related, overall, to the impossibility to deal with it for more than 3 weeks. When hyperbilirubinemie, respiratory failure and sepsis are present T.P.P.N. isn't prudentially to be used.
