Abstract

Objective To investigate the effect of nutritional support on the critical patients and its complications.Methods 68 critical patients with mechanical ventilation were randomly divided into two groups:the group of total parenteral nutrition(TPN)and the group of parenteral nutrition combined enteral nutrition(PN+EN).Cross-check analysis on the conditions and complications of nutritional support was made.Results There were statistical difference between the PN+EN group and the TPN group in the indexes which including nitrogen balance,serum-albumin,haemoglobin,arm muscle circumference(P0.05).The complication,mortality in the group of PN+EN were significantly decreased.Conclusion The standards nutrition support can remarkably reduce the incidence of complications related to the critical patients and ensure to obtain safe,reasonable and effective nutrition support.
