OBJECTIVES: The main aim was to compare the effects of 2 parenteral lipid emulsions on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) incidence, severity, and need for treatment. Secondary aim was to compare the effect on weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life. METHODS: Single-center, observational, retrospective study analyzing preterm infants with a gestational age (GA) <31 weeks and a birth weight <1251 g born between April 2015 and December 2018...

(1) Objectives : Intestinal failure in home parenteral nutrition patients (HPNPs) results in oxidative stress and liver damage. This study investigated how a high dose of fish oil (FO) added to various lipid emulsions influences antioxidant status and liver function markers in HPNPs. (2) Methods: Twelve HPNPs receiving Smoflipid for at least 3 months were given FO (Omegaven) for a further 4 weeks. Then, the patients were randomized to subsequently receive Lipoplus and ClinOleic for 6 weeks or vice versa plus 4 weeks of Omegaven after each cycle in a crossover design...

INTRODUCTION: the stability of total parenteral nutrition admixtures for neonates (TPNAn) has been questioned in relation to the interaction between calcium and fish oil emulsions. AIM: the aim of this study was to check the stability (particle size < 1 µm) of different individualized TPNAn prepared with fish-oil emulsion and containing calcium at concentrations ranging from 10 to 20 mmol/L. METHODS: admixtures analyzed: twelve different formulations with SMOFlipid® 20 % (conserved for 24 h and for 96 h), three formulations with Lipoplus® 20 % (conserved for 96 h) and three formulations with SMOFlipid® 20 % with Multi-12K1® Pediatric (conserved for 96 h)...

Exposure of parenteral nutrition (PN) to light induces hydroperoxide (HPO) formation whose toxicity, especially in pediatrics, is documented. In this context, we evaluated the efficacy of photoprotection medical devices used in our institution to protect PN from degradation after two different exposures to light. A mixed oil lipid emulsion (Smoflipid®) in standard or opaque syringes and a ternary PN mixture bags (Numetah®) with or without opaque overwrap were exposed for at least 420 min to a xenon lamp...

BACKGROUND: Using soybean oil-based lipid emulsions (Intralipid), which contain higher amounts of omega-6 fatty acids and phytosterols in parenteral nutrition, is a risk factor for cholestasis (PNAC). An alternative form of a mixed lipid emulsion (SMOFlipid) has been developed to reduce the risk of PNAC, but significant benefits over Intralipid in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants have yet to be demonstrated. The aim of this study was to compare the differences in PNAC incidence in VLBW receiving SMOFlipid vs...

Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a severe liver injury occurring due to factors related to intestinal failure and parenteral nutrition administration. Different approaches are studied to reduce the risk or ameliorate the course of IFALD, including providing omega-3 fatty acids instead of soybean oil-based lipid emulsion or administering active compounds that exert a hepatoprotective effect. This study aimed to develop, optimize, and characterize magnolol-loaded intravenous lipid emulsion for parenteral nutrition...

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting are defined as the most common of side effects of treatment and, at the same time, are very difficult to accept for patients', frequently causing changes in the therapy regimen, significantly reducing its effectiveness. Thus, an antiemetic prophylactic is essential to the provision of such a therapy for the patient. Pharmacotherapy often includes various drugs, including antiemetics, with the administration of such drugs by injection through two separate catheters being the preferred method...

INTRODUCTION: Prolonged use of parenteral nutrition can eventually lead to liver abnormalities. Causative factors include decreased enteral stimulation, high intakes of intravenous dextrose, proinflammatory 100 % soybean oil-based lipids, and increased burden on liver through 24-h infusions. We present a case report of a patient who received parenteral nutrition modifications to address liver dysfunction. PRESENTATION OF CASE: Our patient was a 37-year-old African American male with a past medical history including refractory Crohn's disease complicated by multiple small bowel obstructions, several bowel surgeries, left lower quadrant colostomy placement, short bowel syndrome, severe protein calorie malnutrition, parenteral nutrition dependence, and elevated liver function tests...

BACKGROUND: Reports of essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) in patients on parenteral nutrition (PN) receiving a composite lipid (mixed-oil intravenous lipid emulsion (MO ILE)) are predominantly in children managed by lipid dose restriction. The objective of the current study was to determine the prevalence of EFAD in patients with intestinal failure (IF) who are PN dependent and not lipid restricted. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated patients, ages 0-17y followed by our intestinal rehabilitation program between November 2020 and June 2021 with PN dependency index (PNDI) of > 80% on a MO ILE, SMOFlipid®...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Lipid peroxidation in parenteral nutrition mixtures is still a challenge. We aimed to evaluate the effect of two different amino acid solutions used in different clinical situations on lipid peroxidation of three different lipid emulsions (Intralipid®, ClinOleic® and SMOFlipid®) in all-in-one admixtures during 24 hours of simulated infusion. The selected amino acid solutions included one used in stable patients and one used in renal insufficiency (Aminomel10E® and Nephrotect®, respectively)...

BACKGROUND: Manufacturers evaluate lipemia-induced interference using Intralipid® , but it does not contain all lipoprotein types. The aim of this study was to evaluate lipemiainduced interference in biochemical parameters from endogenous lipemic samples and SMOFlipid® supplemented samples, in order to assess if SMOFlipid® can be used in lipemic interference studies. METHODS: Serum pools were supplemented with SMOFlipid® to achieve 800 mg/dL and 1500 mg/dL triglyceride concentration, and analyzed for 25 biochemical parameters both before and after the supplementation...

Propofol is the preferred anaesthetic for induction and maintenance of sedation in critically ill mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients. However, during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, regular supply chains could not keep up with the sudden increase in global demand, causing drug shortages. Propofol is formulated as an oil-in-water emulsion which is administered intravenously. This study explores the extemporaneous preparation of a propofol emulsion without specialized manufacturing equipment to temporally alleviate such shortages...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Conventional soybean oil-based intravenous lipid emulsions (SO-ILEs) have high polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) contents and phytosterols that may have adverse effects in preterm infants. Recently, the multi-oil-based intravenous lipid emulsion (MO-ILE), SMOFlipid, has been widely utilized in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), but significant benefits over SO-ILEs in low gestational age neonates have yet to be demonstrated. This study was performed to compare the effects of the SO-ILE, Intralipid, and the MO-ILE, SMOFlipid, on neonatal health outcomes in preterm infants...

INTRODUCTION: Parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis (PNAC) is a common morbidity in neonates requiring total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Previous studies in infants with intestinal failure have shown a benefit of mixed lipid emulsion (MLE) in reducing PNAC. It is not known whether this benefit extends to a general neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) population, where MLE is used on a selective basis. The objective of this study is to examine associations between MLE use and PNAC rate in the general NICU setting...

Resolution of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease has been identified in infants receiving SMOFlipid™ or a 100% fish oil lipid emulsion (FOLE). However, the effect of FOLE is unknown when the previous emulsion received is a mixed lipid emulsion containing fish oil. This observational pilot study reports data regarding the use of Omegaven™ after the diagnosis of cholestasis while receiving SMOFlipid™. We conducted a retrospective review of medical charts of neonates in which a partially fish oil-based lipid emulsion was replaced by a fish oil lipid emulsion at 1 g/kg/day due to cholestasis...

BACKGROUND: Few studies in the literature have analyzed the long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of the administration of a multicomponent versus a soybean-based lipid emulsion (LE) in preterm infants receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). A recent randomized controlled trial conducted in our unit provided evidence of better growth in head circumference during the hospital stay in those who received a multicomponent LE. METHODS: This is a 24 month follow-up study of preterm infants, previously enrolled in a randomized trial, who received a multicomponent LE (SMOFlipid® ) or a standard soybean-based one (Intralipid® )...

BACKGROUND: Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) and Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF) are highly heterogeneous condition and many of the mechanisms involved still require elucidation. The aim was to analyze the lipidomic profile in plasma of women with RPL and RIF before and after receiving the Lipid Emulsion Therapy (LET) containing 10% fish oil (SMOFlipid® 20%). METHODS: This study included twenty-six women with RPL or RIF from immunological or inflammatory causes, with elevated natural killer cell levels and divided into a Pregnancy Loss or a Live Birth group according to the outcome...

BACKGROUND: the effect on liver function markers and inflammation of the different content of phytosterols in lipid emulsions (LEs) used in the parenteral nutrition (PN) regimen of adult home PN (HPN) patients is not clear. METHODS: plasma phytosterol and cytokine concentrations, fatty acid composition, liver function markers, and triglycerides were measured in 58 adult HPN patients receiving one of three different LEs (soybean oil-based: Intralipid; olive oil-based: ClinOleic; containing fish oil: SMOFLipid)...

BACKGROUND: Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD), initially manifesting as cholestasis, is a complication in neonates on parenteral nutrition (PN). Soybean oil lipid emulsion (SOLE), though implicated in IFALD, was the only Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved initial intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) for infants and children in the United States. A mixed-oil lipid emulsion (MOLE) gained popularity in patients at risk for IFALD, and was recently FDA-approved as an initial ILE in children...

INTRODUCTION: Early data suggest use of a mixed lipid emulsion (LE) with a soybean oil reduction strategy in parenteral nutrition (PN) may improve clinical outcomes. Duke University Hospital made a full switch to a Soybean oil/MCT/Olive/Fish Oil lipid (4-OLE) from pure soybean oil-based LE (Intralipid, Baxter Inc) in May 2017. Since 4-OLE has limited evidence related to its effects on clinical outcome parameters in US hospitals, evidence for clinical benefits of switching to 4-OLE is needed...
