22
Q

if the symptoms are severe
the patient is unstable or refusing to eat…

Study These Flashcards
A

need to be admitted

everyone else can be managed outpatient

23
Q

life threatening condition characterized by widespread organ dysfunction related to failure to make adequate ATP

Study These Flashcards
A

refeeding syndrome

24
Q

prior to refeeding, what happens physiologically?

Study These Flashcards
A
  1. prolonged under nutrition cause decreased blood glucose
  2. catabolism of fat and protein stores
  3. depeletion of intracellular electrolytes including phosphorus
25
**during refeeding**, what happens physiologically to put patient at risk for refeeding syndrome?
1. rising glucose stimulates insulin secretion 1. phosphorus moves into cells to create ATP 1. phophorus concentrations are low from chronic undernutrition (insufficient amounts within 12-72 hours of feeding)
