She was admitted to hospital with chronic diarrhoea, and investigation showed evidence of ulceration of the ileosigmoid anastamosis and terminal ileum. During this admission she had numerous medical interventions such as steroid therapy, blood and ferritin transfusions, diuretics and a trial of Creon. She was fed via nasogastric (NG) feeding tube as she was only consuming half of her meals. Previously she had unsuccessfully trialled various whole protein oral nutritional supplements (ONS) and modular supplements, which she had felt exacerbated the diarrhoea.

"Vital 1.5 kcal supported weight gain without further exacerbation of diarrhoea in a 42 year old female with unexplained diarrhoea. Compliance with the prescribed volume of Vital 1.5 kcal was good as Sue enjoyed the flavour immensely."
