  • Title: Respiratory distress secondary to a high carbohydrate load: a case report.
    Author: Askanazi J, Elwyn DH, Silverberg PA, Rosenbaum SH, Kinney JM.
    Journal: Surgery; 1980 May; 87(5):596-8. PubMed ID: 6768147.
    Abstract:
    The high carbohydrate load of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) caused a 67% increase in CO2 production which precipitated respiratory distress in the 59-year-old man reported on herein. TPN given inappropriately can serve as a physiological stress rather than nutritional support.
