SCORING CRITERIA FOR INTESTINAL FAILURE ASSESSMENT

Results: Age was with worse outcomes in older patients.The territory of the superior mesenteric artery was predominantly affected.The type III of IF was the most prevalent, as chronic intestinal failure is dependent on PN.The most common complication was electrolyte disturbance, while in PN the central catheter infection and venous thrombosis in central accesses.Survival in the intestinal transplant group was higher than in patients undergoing intestinal rehabilitation.The classification reference for IF into Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS), Ultra-short Bowel Syndrome (USBS), and Extreme Short Bowel Syndrome (ESBS) facilitated the study and evaluation of these patients.Conclusions: The leading cause of intestinal failure in our setting was Mesenteric Thrombosis and involvement of the superior mesenteric artery.We adopted of IF into SBS, USBS, and ESBS.Electrolyte disturbance, central access thrombosis, and central catheter infection were the main complications.The intestinal transplant group showed better survival rates compared to patients undergoing intestinal rehabilitation.The IRC presents long-term patients with a low central catheter infection rate.
