Objective:To study the effect of segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis on improving the nutritional status of patients with severe intestinal fistula,to explore the impact of nutritional support methods on the recovery of severe intestinal fistula,and to provide nursing experience for patients with severe intestinal fistula. Methods:96 patients with severe intestinal fistulas complicated by multiple fistulas admitted to the intensive care unit of Research Institute of General Surgery from February 2023 to August 2023 were selected. According to the nutritional support method,they were divided into intervention group (n=47) and control group (n=49). The intervention group used segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis,and the control group only used segmented enteral nutrition. After 14 days of enteral nutrition intervention,the nutritional status of the two groups was compared,such as BMI,serum albumin levels,total protein levels,and hemoglobin levels;inflammation levels,such as serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels,interleukin-6 (IL-6),enteral Incidence of nutritional intolerance symptoms,prognosis such as total ICU length of stay,total hospitalization costs,etc. Results:After 14 days intervention,the serum total protein and hemoglobin of the intervention group were (71.55±7.00) g/L and (106.64±15.59) g/L,which were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). The BMI of the intervention group was (21.83±4.44)kg/m2,and BMI in the control group was (19.64±3.16)kg/m2. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The CRP level in the intervention group was (35.71±27.77) mg/L,which was significantly lower than that in the control group[(56.78±51.22) mg/L,P<0.05]. The IL-6 level in the intervention group was (30.20±24.47) pg/mL,which was also significantly lower than that in the control group[(76.18±54.36)pg/mL,P<0.05]. Conclusion:Segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis is beneficial to improving patients' nutritional status,reducing inflammatory reactions,reducing the incidence of enteral nutrition intolerance,and reducing the length of total hospitalization.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between phase angle (PA) and nutritional status,duration of mechanical ventilation,length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay,and clinical outcomes in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) complicated with ARDS. Methods:The clinical data of patients with SAP complicated with ARDS admitted to the surgical ICU,Jinling hospital,medical school of Nanjing University,from July 2023 to March 2024 were retrospectively collected. Patients are divided into low-PA group and normal-PA group based on phase angle. The correlation analysis between phase angle,nutritional status,and clinical outcomes,and evaluation of risk factors for mortality in patients with SAP combined with ARDS were performed. Result:A total of 83 patients with SAP complicated with ARDS were included in this study. PA was negatively correlated with nutritional risk scores (rs=-0.352,P=0.001),duration of mechanical ventilation (rp=-0.475,P<0.001),length of ICU stay (rp=-0.313,P=0.004),and mortality (rs=-0.371,P=0.001). Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in age,PA value,and duration of mechanical ventilation for predicting mortality (P<0.05);Multivariate analysis showed that the PA value was an independent risk factor for mortality (P<0.05). Conclusion:PA is significantly correlated with clinical outcomes,such as nutritional risk,duration of mechanical ventilation,length of ICU stay and mortality,and may be a promising biomarker in future.
