Introduction to Adult Short Bowel Syndrome
Adult Short Bowel Syndrome, also known as Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS), is a complex medical condition characterized by the malabsorption of nutrients due to the surgical removal or dysfunction of a significant portion of the small intestine. Patients with SBS often face challenges in maintaining adequate nutrition and hydration, leading to a variety of complications.

This section provides a solid foundation for understanding the subsequent chapters and the management approaches discussed.
Managing SBS through Nutrition
Nutritional management is a cornerstone of care for patients with Adult Short Bowel Syndrome. This book goes beyond basic principles and provides effective dietary concepts specifically tailored to managing malabsorption caused by SBS. One highlight is the discussion on the rationale and use of oral rehydration solutions, which play a crucial role in maintaining hydration and electrolyte balance.
The authors also delve into emerging areas of research related to SBS, such as the gut microbiome and the use of pre and probiotics. This knowledge is invaluable for healthcare professionals looking to stay up-to-date with the latest advancements and incorporate them into their clinical practice.
