The Rate of Bloodstream Infection Is High in Infants with Short Bowel Syndrome: Relationship with Small Bowel Bacterial Overgrowth, Enteral Feeding, and Inflammatory and Immune Responses
Abstract
Objective This pilot study in parenteral nutrition–dependent infants with short bowel syndrome (SBS) evaluated the impact of feeding route and intestinal permeability on bloodstream infection (BSI), small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO), and systemic immune responses, as well as fecal calprotectin as a biomarker for SBBO. Study design Ten infants (ages 4.2-15.4 months) with SBS caused by necrotizing enterocolitis were evaluated. Nutritional...
