Özet

Background: Temporary diverting enterostomy might be the initial step while treating gastrointestinal disorders in infants. According to the level of the stoma, calorie, fluid, and electrolyte imbalance might occur. Totally parenteral nutrition (TPN), parenteral fluid, and electrolyte balancing are the choice of support. Owing to limitations of both, distal refeeding (DR) has been suggested as an alternative. However, in English literature, there is no recommended technique for how DR should apply. This article is aimed at evaluating our innovative DR approach, which was not reported earlier.
