Recovery after organ transplantation in adults: the role of postoperative nutrition therapy
1998
Hasse, J.M.
Appropriate nutrition therapy is vital during the acute posttransplant period to promote healing, fight infection, provide energy for activity, and replenish depleted nutrient stores. Energy, protein, fluid, vitamin, mineral, and electrolyte requirements reflect a patient's pretransplant status and perioperative complications. Altered graft function, drug-nutrient interactions, and complications involving neurological, psychological, cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, renal, and endocrine systems influence modes of feeding and nutrient requirements. If transplant recipients are unable to eat during the postoperative period, nutrition support may be required; tube feeding is preferred over total parenteral nutrition. Objective and subjective assessment parameters are used to measure the effectiveness of nutrition therapy.
