The Influence of Neocate in Paediatric Short Bowel Syndrome on PN Weaning

Table 1

Shows for every patient the residual small bowel length (RSBL = residual length of the small intestine measured peroperatively along the antimesenteric border), the age at the start of Neocate (N), the age of complete PN, weaning and the total time on PN. In all patients the ileocaecal valve and colon were present. m = months; d = days.

	Start N	Stop PN	Total PN	RSBL
Patient 1	36 m	44 m	8 m	50 cm
Patient 2	4 m	7 m	3 m	32 cm
Patient 3	19 d	2 m	1 m 11 d	20 cm
Patient 4	12 d	13 m	12 m 18 d	10 cm
