Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of hypocaloric parenteral nutrition (PN) regimen on the postoperative recovery in aged patients with gastric cancer .Methods:Sixty aged patients with gastric cancer were divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30) on the basis of postoperative PN feeding strategies .The observation group received hypocaloric PN which contained calorie 18 kcal/kg/d and nitrogen 0 .1 g/kg/d .And the control group received calorie 30 kcal/kg/d and nitrogen 0 .2 g/kg/d .Both groups have been provided with PN for 6 days continuously .The differences regarding C‐reactive protein(CRP) ,serum albumin ,blood glucose ,infectious complications and duration of hospital stay were compared between the two groups .Results:CRP level on the 6th day in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group , while levels of serum prealbumin and transferrin in observation group were higher than those in control group (P< 0 .05) . There was no significant difference regarding blood glucose concentration between the groups , but the dose of insulin administered on the 6th day in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group (P< 0 .05) .And both infectious complications and duration of hospital stay in observation group were fewer than those in control group (P<0 .05) . Conclusions :Hypocaloric PN regimen was conducive to postoperative recovery in aged patients with gastric cancer .
