A complex disease entity, intestinal failure (IF) has only recently
become accepted as a distinct clinical syndrome. Improvements
across a wide range of disciplines-including critical care and
organ transplantation as well as surgical, medical, and nutritional
therapies-have led to a steady rise in survival and quality of life
for patients with IF. Taking a current, multidisciplinary approach
to their care, Clinical Management of Intestinal Failure offers
intensive discussion of medical and nutritional issues in adults
and children with intestinal failure. It addresses all facets of
IF, including epidemiology, clinical presentation, intestinal
rehabilitation, and transplantation. Topics covered include:
Etiology and epidemiology Pathophysiology and clinical assessment
Medical and surgical management Prevention and treatment of
complications Nursing management Emerging diagnostic and
therapeutic methods Long-term care Reflecting the diverse nature of
IF clinical care and research, this book is written by a group of
expert clinician scientists that includes gastroenterologists,
surgeons, nurses, pharmacists, dietitians, social workers, and
patients. They show how a multidisciplinary approach to patient
care is instrumental in achieving optimal patient outcomes through
more efficient lines of communication, improved monitoring of
medications and their effects, detailed evaluation of growth
parameters, and facilitation of the creative process that can lead
to research breakthroughs. Advancing the discipline of IF, this
book summarizes the current state of the art of patient management
as well as new developments in the science of tissue engineering,
medical and surgical therapy, and transplantation.
