Abstract
High ileostomy output may require dietary and pharma- cologic manipulation. Psyllium fiber has been used in ile- ostomy patients because of its role in lipid and glucose absorption. Psyllium fiber is also considered to have antidiarrheal effects, which is why it is sometimes rec- ommended to decrease stoma output. The aim of this comparative non-randomized prospec- tive study was to determine whether treatment with psyl- lium fiber decreased stoma output.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
