Limited Long Term Survival in Patients After In-hospital Intestinal Failure Requiring Total Parenteral Nutrition

July 15, 2014 updated by: Leendert Oterdoom, Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc

The purpose of this study is to determine what the long term survival is after in hospital use of total parenteral nutrition due to intestinal failure.

Earlier studies only followed patients for a maximum of 6 months or included only very specific patients. We were interested in all patients in our hospital and followed them for up to 2 years.
