Review: Short‐Bowel Syndrome: A Review of the Role of Nutrition Support

Abstract
Advances in long‐term venous access devices and in parenteral nutrition solutions have made it possible for patients with severe short bowel syndrome to survive and to live in our society. The spectrum of this disease is such that some patients may be able to lessen their dependence or even become free from parenteral therapy. This review will discuss the role of nutrition support in the patient with short bowel syndrome. (Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition 15:93–101, 1991)
