➢ TPN associated complications:■ Hyperosmolarity.■ Lack of glycaemic control.■ Nutrient deficiencies.■ Liver dysfunction, cholestasis and pancreatic atrophy.■ Fluid overload.➢ Patients on TPN require■ Daily urea, electrolytes and glucose until stabilised on TPN.■ Liver function test (LFTs) twice weekly.■ Magnesium, Copper, Manganese, Zinc, Phosphate weekly.
Disease(s) on the Hospital-ships

Several of the individual medical cases, excluding the major entities covered in the Minutes and Annual Reports, were recorded in contemporary medical journals. Thus, two sailors suffering from diphtheria, both of whom recovered, were documented in 1859.9 A case of ‘idiopathic tetanus’ was described by Harry Leach (see below) in 1870;10 the patient was managed (unsuccessfully) with chloral hydrate and chloroform – when tetanic spasms occurred. A further communication concerned the use of zinc phosphate in the management of a woman who was under the care of Robert Barnes suffering from epilepsy (seeChapter 12).11

Prosthetic cementation is a step of major importance in the prosthesis retention (Melo Freire et al. 2016). Zinc phosphate cement is easy to handle, has a good compression resistance, a reasonable work time and an acceptable film thickness (25 μm). Zinc oxide cement without eugenol has good consistency, is easy to handle, has a thin film thickness and a compression resistance lower than other cements. Polycarboxylate cements have chemical adhesion to enamel and dentin, acceptable film thickness, low compression resistance but high traction resistance.

Conventional types of cement such as zinc-phosphate and glass ionomer cement are efficient as retention is based on micromechanical interlocking between the tooth surface and the inner walls of the restoration [18]. Furthermore, opaque cement will reduce the overall appearance of an all-ceramic restoration. Adhesive cementation technique with the additional benefit of chemical adhesion between tooth and restoration is on the other hand time-consuming and technique sensitive.

Regarding indirect CRs, mainly porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns/abutments were used. Posts were mainly produced by a dental technician and made of a noble metal. Cementation was done with water-based cements such as zinc phosphate or glass ionomer cement.
