Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the clinical significance of serum fibronectin and prealbumin as nutritional parameters in nutrition support after abdominal surgery.Methods: Serum albumin,transferrin,prealbumin and fibronectin were determined respectively before and 7 days after nutrition support in abdominal surgery patients,and nitrogen balance was calculated daily during nutrition support.Results: Compared with before nutrition support,the levels of serum transferrin,prealbumin and fibronectin were significantly increased after nutrition support.Furthermore,the change of prealbumin was correlated with that of fibronectin.Conclusion: Measurement of serum transferrin and prealbumin can be recommended as valuable indicators in assessing the nutritional status of surgery patients receiving nutritional support.
