Nutrition and Mesenteric Issues in Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care.
Pediatric Critical Care Medicine 2016 August
OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this review are to discuss the challenges of delivering adequate nutrition to children with congenital heart disease, including pre- and postoperative factors and the role of enteral and parenteral nutrition, as well as the evidence supporting current practices.
DATA SOURCE: MEDLINE and PubMed.
CONCLUSION: Providing adequate nutritional support is paramount for critically ill infants with congenital heart disease, a population at particular risk for malnutrition. Improved nutritional support has been associated with increased survival and reduction in overall morbidity. Further gains can be achieved by creating a clinical culture that emphasizes optimal perioperative nutritional support. Additional research is required to identify the specific nutrient composition, optimal mode, and timing of delivery to maximize clinical benefit.
