Intestinal failure and long-term parenteral nutrition in children.
Infants and children with intestinal failure such as that seen in short bowel syndrome will require parenteral feeding, some of them in the long-term. Complications of long-term feeding include those associated with central venous catheter use and liver failure associated with parenteral nutrition. Careful monitoring and supportive care from experts in the paediatric nutrition support team are ...
متن کاملOxidative Stress in Children on Long-Term Parenteral Nutrition
Background: The immaturity of glutathione metabolism is believed to explain the oxidative stress observed in premature neonates on total parenteral nutrition [TPN]. Animal studies report that peroxides contaminating TPN induce the low glutathione levels as a consequence of the inhibition of the generation of substrates for its synthesis. We hypothesize that older children receiving long-term TP...
متن کاملBAPEN Symposium 4 on ‘Managing complications in long-term parenteral nutrition’ Managing liver dysfunction in parenteral nutrition
Parenteral nutrition is life saving in patients with intestinal failure but liver dysfunction is commonly encountered, especially in neonates. Although abnormal liver function tests associated with short-term parenteral nutrition are usually benign and transient, liver dysfunction in both children and adults receiving long-term parenteral nutrition can progress to end-stage liver disease and li...
متن کاملPeripheral parenteral nutrition: an option for patients with an indication for short-term parenteral nutrition.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine and describe our experience with the use of peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN). METHODS Patients with an indication for parenteral nutrition for less than 15 days received it via a peripheral vein via a short, 20 or 22 gauge French polyurethane catheter. Parenteral nutrition had a final osmolality of 993 mOsm/l and was administered by infusion...
متن کاملParenteral nutrition.
Nutritional insufficiency, leading to early growth deficits has long-lasting effects, including short stature and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. Early enteral feeding is commonly limited by immaturity of gastrointestinal motor function in preterm neonates. To ensure that a stressed premature infant receives an adequate but not excessive amount of glucose, the amount of carbohydrate delivered...
