Abstract:
:We studied the effect of high caloric parenteral nutrition on the rate of gastric emptying of solid food. The linear pattern of gastric emptying was not altered by parenteral nutrition, but the gastric emptying rate was consistently slowed. The degree of slowing of gastric emptying while on parenteral nutrition correlated with the increase in blood glucose induced by the intravenous nutrient load. These findings may explain the oral food intolerance displayed by some persons receiving both oral and high caloric intravenous nutrition.
