Purpose:

  • To review the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of refeeding syndrome.
  • To provide recommendations for risk reduction, early diagnosis, and treatment.
  • To enhance clinical understanding and management strategies.

Summary:

  • Refeeding syndrome involves complex physiological alterations due to nutritional support in malnourished individuals.
  • Key features include neurological, respiratory, and cardiac symptoms, arising from fluid and electrolyte imbalances.
