Clinical Application Value of Total Intravenous Nutrition in the Treatment of Critically Ill Newborns
Objective To analyze the effect of total intravenous nutrition support in the treatment of critically ill new-borns.Methods A total of 78 critically ill newborns admitted to Pizhou People's Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were conveniently selected as the study subjects.They were divided into control group and observation group by random number table method,with 39 cases in each group.The control group received general supportive treatment,and the observation group received total intravenous nutrition support treatment.The treatment time,the incidence of complications and changes of body mass were compared between the two groups.Results In the observation group,the time of intravenous nutrition was(8.45±1.39)d,the time of total gastrointestinal feeding was(9.26±1.87)d,the time of recovery of birth weight was(4.89±0.89)d,and the time of hospitalization was(11.46±2.07)d,were shorter than those of the control group(10.56±2.12)d,(12.44±2.53)d,(7.11±1.56)d,(15.45±2.23)d,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(t=5.198,6.312,7.719,8.189,all P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was 5.13%,which was lower than 20.51%in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2= 4.129,P<0.05).The duration of body mass decline(3.41±0.79)d in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group(5.15±1.16)d,and the daily body mass gain(12.13±3.42)g was higher than that in the control group(7.89±1.45)g,and the differences were statistically significant(t=7.743,7.128,both P<0.05).Conclusion In the treat-ment of critically ill newborns,total intravenous nutrition support can shorten the intravenous nutrition of children,achieve whole gastrointestinal feeding,restore birth weight and hospital stay,avoid the continuous decline of body weight of children,promote the growth of body weight,and reduce complications.
