[A 3-component basic diet in the therapy of severe protracted diarrhea].
The protracted diarrhea of young infants with failure to thrive is a clinically defined severe illness. Starting from acute enteritis it will lead to a vicious circle of malnutrition, malabsorption and food intolerance. 17 infants have been treated with a special diet of the three components: 1. oligopeptides (lact-albumin enzymatic hydrolysate); 2. long-chain triglycerides; and 3. Maltodextrin 5 (corn hydrolysate). These components are mixed according to the individual clinical state and intestinal tolerance. Trace elements, minerals and vitamins are added. Our diet has proven a great help in reducing and even replacing parenteral nutrition.
