"Cholera solution" in short bowel syndrome

M Crow, G W Meyer

    Southern Medical Journal
    |October 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    An oral glucose and electrolyte solution effectively treated a patient with short bowel syndrome, reversing fluid and electrolyte imbalances for clinical improvement. This highlights the solution's potential in managing malabsorption disorders.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Clinical Nutrition
    • Internal Medicine

    Background:

    • Short bowel syndrome (SBS) presents significant challenges in fluid and electrolyte absorption.
    • Malabsorption in SBS can lead to severe dehydration and electrolyte disturbances.

    Observation:

    • A patient with short bowel syndrome was treated with a specific oral glucose and electrolyte solution.
    • The solution contained glucose (120 mmol/L), Na (100 mEq/L), K (10 mEq/L), Cl (70 mEq/L), and HCO3 (40 mEq/L).

    Findings:

    • The oral glucose and electrolyte solution was successfully administered.
    • The patient experienced reversal of fluid and electrolyte losses.
    • Significant clinical improvement was observed in the patient.

    Implications:

    • This oral solution demonstrates efficacy in managing fluid and electrolyte deficits in short bowel syndrome.
    • It offers a potential therapeutic strategy for patients with SBS and malabsorption.
    • Further research may validate this approach for broader clinical application in SBS management.
