Abstract:
Objective:To discuss the onset and development pattern and characteristics of refeeding syndrome (RFS) induced by nutrition support and to provide reference for rational drug use in parenteral nutrition management.Methods:Case reports of RFS from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP database and Pubmed from 2000 to 2020 were retrieved. The clinical data were collected and statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 17 reports, including 17 cases, were included in the analysis. Patients were 6 males(35.29%) and 11 females (64.71%). The distribution of age was from 29 weeks in a premature neonate to 87 years old. 12 cases (70.59%) of RFS occurred within 3 days after starting the nutrition support. The most common clinical manifestation were cardiovascular system symptoms (88.23%), with dyspnea as the most reported symptom (41.17%). 15 patients (88.23%) recovered after appropriate intervention and 2 patients died(11.76%).Conclusions:Refeeding syndrome is a potentially fatal condition. The risk of RFS should be assessed before initiating nutrition support. Patients at risk of RFS must be monitored closely at the early stage of nutritional support.
