b. the patient is experiencing s/s of refeeding syndrome. you recommend to hold the tpn and replete phosphorus potassium and magnesium.

c. the patient's symptoms are unrelated. continue current care

 

3. after rehydration and repletion of phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium, you are consulted to provide tpn orders. after reviewing the labs, what do you recommend?

initiate the following tpn orders for the first 24 hrs:

c. 400ml d50w, 800ml 10%aa, 1000ml 10% intralipid (soybean oil emulsion)

 

on day 3, the patient undergoes an exploratory lapartomy with extensive small bowel resection. on day 4 he is scheduled to restart tpn. the surgeon would like to allow for gut rest and anastomosis healing for 2-4 days before initiating trophic enteral feedings. you evaluate the patient's lab values:

sodium: 148, potassium-3.6, chloride-112, co2-23, bun-22, creatinine-1.1, glucose-325, phosphorus-2.8, magnesium-1.8. 

4. after reviewing these labs, how should the tpn be adjusted for day 4?

a. 400ml d50w, 800ml 10%aa, 600ml 10% intralipid
