Hypophosphataemic neuropathy during total parenteral nutrition

Abstract: Intravenous glucose administration is the most common cause of hypophosphataemia in hospitalised patients. While most of these cases are asymptomatic, severe hypophosphataemia, when combined with phosphorus depletion, can cause acute neuropathy that mimics Guillain-Barré syndrome. A malnourished patient who received intravenous hyperalimentation (IVH) without intravenous phosphate (IP) developed hypophosphataemia and acute sensorimotor neuropathy. F waves in the peripheral nerve trunk were absent or diminished… Show more

“…5,14,15 Neuropathies ranging from mild to complete paralysis have been associated with severe hypophosphatemia in critically ill patients. [16][17][18] Muscular dysfunction beginning with weakness ranging all the way up to rhabdomyolysis 19,20 occurs as well. Leukocyte dysfunction 21 and increased susceptibility to sepsis 22 are also suggested in the literature.…”
