Nutrition Options in Short-Bowel Syndrome By David G. Binion, MD, and Zachary Zator, MD Intestinal transplantation is an option for select patients with short-bowel syndrome- associated intestinal failure (SBS-IF) who fail or do not tolerate nutritional rehabilitation. There are a range of factors to consider in the nutritional management of patients before and after intestinal transplantation. SBS-IF can be defined as the inability to maintain proper nutritional balance — including of proteins, electrolytes, macronutrients, micronutrients, and fluids — while adhering to a conventional diet in the face of an anatomically or functionally limited gut surface. The ideal management of patients with SBS-IF involves a multidisciplinary team of gastro enterologists, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, and surgeons. Pharmacotherapeutic agents aimed at minimizing fluid losses have been routinely employed to support these patients. For instance, antidiarrheal agents, such as loperamide or diphenoxylate, are used alongside proton pump inhibitors. Somatostatin analogs, like octreotide, inhibit gastrointestinal secretions from the stomach, pancreas, and intestines and have been proven beneficial in the past. However, their role can be limited, as somatostatin can actually inhibit enteral protein synthesis. In recent years, attention has turned beyond mere supportive care to potentially therapeutic pharmacologic agents, such as teduglutide, a human recombinant GLP-2 analog, which was approved in 2012. Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is secreted in response to luminal nutrients reaching the distal ileum and colon, and promotes the growth of intestinal mucosa by increasing mesenteric blood flow, decreasing gastric acid secretion, and enhancing crypt cell growth Continued on Page 2 Accreditation Statement: The University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

As a recombinant analog of GLP-2, to enteral nutrition were iron (94.7%), magnesium (90.5%), teduglutide has a significantly longer half-life and acts by binding to zinc (50%), vitamin D (66.7%), and vitamin A (40%).4 Another GLP-2 receptors and potentiating its effects.

When medical management of SBS-IF fails, intestinal transplan- tation is pursued in select patients. The optimal strategy to manage Dr. Binion is a professor of medicine with the Division of nutritional needs in these complex postoperative patients is Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition. He serves as a co-director and translational research leader for the IBD not entirely known. Moreover, requirements vary depending on Center and directs the Division’s Nutrition Support Program. the length of time since transplantation. Right after transplant, patients generally need higher caloric intake to maintain a healthy nutritional state. Yet at three months after transplantation, the enteral graft generally absorbs carbohydrates and other forms of energy quite well. In one pediatric study, a ratio of energy intake to Dr. Zator is a year III gastroenterology fellow with the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition, resting energy expenditure of 1.34 ± 0.18 was needed for patients where he also serves as the chief GI fellow. on full parenteral nutrition (PN), compared with a ratio of 2.15 ± 0.27 for full enteral intake.3 Long-term data from a different study suggests that these escalated enteral requirements may decrease over time. Ensuring that patients meet these needs while tran- sitioning from parenteral to enteral nutrition is critical to nutritional homeostasis.

  • Short Bowel Syndrome with Intestinal Failure Were Randomized to Teduglutide (0.05 Mg/Kg/Day) Or Placebo for 24 Weeks
    Short Bowel (Gut) Syndrome LaTasha Henry February 25th, 2016 Learning Objectives • Define SBS • Normal function of small bowel • Clinical Manifestation and Diagnosis • Management • Updates Basic Definition • A malabsorption disorder caused by the surgical removal of the small intestine, or rarely it is due to the complete dysfunction of a large segment of bowel. • Most cases are acquired, although some children are born with a congenital short bowel. Intestinal Failure • SBS is the most common cause of intestinal failure, the state in which an individual’s GI function is inadequate to maintain his/her nutrient and hydration status w/o intravenous or enteral supplementation. • In addition to SBS, diseases or congenital defects that cause severe malabsorption, bowel obstruction, and dysmotility (eg, pseudo- obstruction) are causes of intestinal failure. Causes of SBS • surgical resection for Crohn’s disease • Malignancy • Radiation • vascular insufficiency • necrotizing enterocolitis (pediatric) • congenital intestinal anomalies such as atresias or gastroschisis (pediatric) Length as a Determinant of Intestinal Function • The length of the small intestine is an important determinant of intestinal function • Infant normal length is approximately 125 cm at the start of the third trimester of gestation and 250 cm at term • <75 cm are at risk for SBS • Adult normal length is approximately 400 cm • Adults with residual small intestine of less than 180 cm are at risk for developing SBS; those with less than 60 cm of small intestine (but with a

Richardson, M.D. I . I In 1955, Zollinger and Ellison presented a paper before the American Surgical Association in which they described two patients.l They proposed a new clinical syndrome consisting of the following triad: 1. Ulcerations in unusual locations, i. e. second or third portions of the duodenum, upper jejunum or recurrent stomal ulcers following any type of gastric surgery short of total gastrectomy . 2. Gastric hypersecretion of gigantic proportions persisting despite adequate conventional medical, surgical or irradiation therapy. 3. Non -specific islet cell tumors of the pancreas. They postulated that 11 an ulcerogenic humoral factor of pancreatic islet cell origin was responsible for the peptic ulcer diathesis. 11 The following case summary is one of Zollinger and Ellison•s original patients.
