  • Title: Enteric alimentation in specialized gastrointestinal problems: an alternative to total parenteral nutrition.
    Author: Lake AM, Kleinman RE, Walker WA.
    Journal: Adv Pediatr; 1981; 28():319-39. PubMed ID: 6803527.
    Abstract:
    This review has focused on the enteric nutritional management of infants with abnormalities of volume tolerance, digestion, and/or absorption. The necessity of individually assessing the patient's needs vis-à-vis the alternatives cannot be overemphasized. In some patients, enteral feedings are precluded and IV alimentation is the only alternative. For a discussion of IV nutrition options we refer the physician to an excellent review. We also wish to emphasize that in a review of this nature we cannot discuss the relative virtues of closely related formulas. We therefore encourage the physician to obtain product handbooks from the manufacturers.
