More Information
Summary:Refeeding edema is well described in starvation and RFS and it is essential to closely monitor the daily body weights and urine output of these patients, as well as charting and monitoring their fluid and optimizing fluid and sodium balance to help prevent fluid overload associated with cardiac failure [5-7]. The low plasma nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) concentrations and hypotriglyceridemia also might help explain the occurrence of hypoglycemia because gluconeogenesis requires adenosine triphosphatase obtained from fatty acid hepatic β-oxidation.
