The clinical course of 24 patients with insulin-requiring diabetes mellitus who had received total parenteral nutrition (TPN) was retrospectively analyzed. Routine nutritional assessment disclosed significant depression of anthropometric indices and secretory protein levels in patients with chronic renal failure complicating juvenile onset diabetes mellitus (JODM). Biochemical complications including hypo- or hyperglycemia were significantly more frequent (p less than 0.001) in JODM than in maturity-onset diabetes and found to a lesser degree in patients with renal failure. The catheter infection rate was substantially higher (17%) than usually encountered in TPN therapy. Positive nitrogen balance was achieved in the majority of patients with an average 84% and 92% of estimated protein and caloric requirements being provided. Close monitoring and a protocol of infusion plus supplemental subcutaneous regular insulin was useful in providing adequate TPN safely to these high-risk patients.
