First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how receiving parenteral nutrition (IV feeding) changes the results of a liver stiffness test called FibroScan in people with short bowel syndrome. Researchers will measure liver stiffness before, during, and after the infusion in 20 stable adult patients. The goal is to find the optimal time for liver assessment to get accurate results.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors know the best time to measure liver health in patients receiving parenteral nutrition, leading to more accurate monitoring.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study with only 20 participants. It does not test a treatment, so it will not directly improve patient outcomes.
