Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucose imbalance is common in total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Hypoglycemia seems to be less frequent than hyperglycemia, but it influences the clinical outcome to a greater extent. Therefore, it should be effectively prevented and treated. However, there is no relevant report on how to treat hypoglycemia caused by TPN in patients with liver cell injury. CASE SUMMARY We present three patients with liver cell injury who developed severe hypoglycemia during or after TPN infusion. The causes of severe hypoglycemia and glucose-raising strategies were discussed. According to the physiological characteristics of the hepatocellular injury, the ratio of nutrition components prescribed in TPN was appropriately adjusted for the three cases. We simultaneously reduced the dose of insulin and fat emulsion, and increased the dose of glucose in TPN. The blood glucose level was restored to normal range and clinical symptoms were eliminated. CONCLUSION When hypoglycemia occurs during or after TPN in patients with hepatocellular injury, physicians need to simultaneously reduce insulin and fat emulsion, and increase glucose, and correct severe hypoglycemia in time to reduce its adverse consequences.

Abstract
Both stability and compatibility of parenteral nutrition solutions (PNS) with drug products are major concerns for clinicians and clinical pharmacists, especially when concurrent administration of PNS with intravenous medications (IVM) is unavoidable. Since the same physicochemical principles apply to both adult's and paediatrics' PNS, concerns about stability and compatibility may still apply to both. However, these concerns are relatively more common in paediatrics and neonatal clinical settings, where limited vascular access can be problematic and the coadministration of PNS and drugs is more common. In neonatal and paediatric populations, there have been few experimental studies and comprehensive evaluations looking at medication compatibility with frequently used PNS. This work is part of a larger research project concerned for compatibility of PNS with commonly used intravenous medication in paediatric and neonates. This paper captures and reviews published data on factors influencing stability and compatibility of parenteral nutrition solutions. This information will help clinicians and clinical pharmacists to understand the principals of the stability and compatibility of PNS, furthermore, it will inform better design of future compatibility studies, as it highlights the complexity of PNS and the multiple factors influencing the stability of PNS, and hence its compatibility with IVM. When preparing, prescribing, and administering the PNS, especially when co-administration with IVM is unavoidable, it is important to take into account the physicochemical properties of the PNS components and IVM as well as administration conditions and environmental factors. These factors should also be considered in the design of the compatibility studies of the PNS with the IVM.

Abstract
Preterm and critically ill infants are at risk for hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). Common risk factors for HTG include prematurity, intravenous lipid emulsion dose and oil composition, reduced lipoprotein lipase activity, fetal growth restriction, sepsis, and renal failure. Despite these risk factors, clinicians lack a universally agreed upon definition for HTG and evidence-based approach to HTG management. This review provides a detailed overview of triglyceride and intravenous lipid emulsion metabolism and how this relates to specific HTG risk factors, along with some practical considerations for managing HTG in the neonatal population.

Abstract
The proper use of intravenous fluids has likely been responsible for saving more lives than any other group of substances. Proper use includes prescribing an appropriate electrolyte and carbohydrate solution, at a calculated rate or volume, for the right child, at the right time. Forming intravenous fluid plans for hospitalized children requires an understanding of water and electrolyte physiology in healthy children and how different pathology deviates from the norm. This review highlights fluid management in several disease types, including liver disease, diabetic ketoacidosis, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone, diabetes insipidus, kidney disease, and intestinal failure as well as in those with nonphysiologic fluid losses. For each disease, the review discusses specific considerations, evaluations, and management strategies to consider when customizing intravenous fluid plans. Ultimately, all hospitalized children should receive an individualized fluid plan with recurrent evaluations and fluid modifications to provide optimal care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reports of zinc and selenium deficiencies accompanying inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mostly have originated from Western countries and concerned adult patients. Whether Japanese children with IBD have similar deficiencies remained unclear. AIM We aimed to elucidate differences in serum zinc and selenium concentrations in Japanese children between types of IBD. METHODS Children under 17 years old undergoing care at 12 Japanese pediatric centers were retrospectively enrolled between November 2016 and February 2018 to 3 groups representing Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), and normal controls (NC) with irritable bowel syndrome or no illnesses. Serum zinc and selenium were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Zinc and selenium deficiencies were defined by serum concentrations < 70 μg/dL and < 9.5 μg/dL, respectively. RESULTS Subjects included 98 patients with CD (median age, 13 years), 118 with UC (11 years), and 43 NC (11 years). Serum zinc and selenium were significantly lower in CD (median, 64 and 12.6 μg/dL respectively) than in UC (69 and 14.6; P < 0.05 and P < 0.001) or NC (77 and 15.7; P < 0.01 and P < 0.001). Zinc deficiency was significantly more prevalent in CD (60.2%) than in NC (37.2%; P < 0.05), but not than in UC (51.7%; P = 0.22). Selenium deficiency was significantly more prevalent in CD (15.3%) than in UC (5.9%; P < 0.05) or NC (0%; P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS In Japanese children under 17 years old, serum zinc and selenium were significantly lower in CD than in UC or NC. Zinc and selenium should be monitored, and supplemented when deficient, in children with IBD, especially CD.

Abstract
Transitions of care require coordination between inpatient healthcare providers, care managers, outpatient/ambulatory providers, and the patient/caregiver and family members. Poor communication during transitions of care can affect health outcomes and economic costs for patients/caregivers, healthcare providers, and healthcare systems. The goal of this paper is to identify risk-prone processes in the transition of care for patients requiring parenteral nutrition (PN) between healthcare environments, including the hospital, home, skilled nursing facility, and long-term acute care hospital settings. To facilitate the evaluation of the transition, a sequential series of steps in the transition process were identified: initial notification, assessment in preparation for transfer, identifying the receiving organization, identifying accountable providers at each sending/receiving organization, communicating the nutrition care plan, implementing the plan and additional considerations regarding PN preparation and readmissions. Safety concerns with risk-prone processes are identified and recommended best practices are proposed for improving processes at each step of the transition. Pediatric considerations are included in the evaluation of the various steps in the transition of care. This paper was approved by the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) Board of Directors.

Abstract
For persons who survive with progressive cancer, nutritional therapy and exercise may be significant factors to improve the health condition and life quality of cancer patients. Nutritional therapy and medications are essential to managing progressive cancer. Cancer survivors, as well as cancer patients, are mostly extremely encouraged to search for knowledge about the selection of diet, exercise, and dietary supplements to recover as well as maintain their treatment consequences, living quality, and survival of patients. A healthy diet plays an important role in cancer treatment. Different articles are studied to collect information and knowledge about the use of nutrients in cancer treatment as well as cancer prevention. The report deliberates nutrition and exercise strategies during the range of cancer care, emphasizing significant concerns during treatment of cancer and for patients of advanced cancer, but concentrating mostly on the requirements of the population of persons who are healthy or who have constant disease following their repossession from management. It also deliberates choice nutrition and exercise problems such as dietary supplements, food care, food selections, and weight; problems interrelated to designated cancer sites, and common questions about diet, and cancer survival. Decrease the side effects of medicines both during and after treatment.

Abstract
Almost half of inpatients on parenteral nutrition experience hyperglycemia, which increases the risk of complications and mortality. The blood glucose target for hospitalized patients on parenteral nutrition is 7.8 to 10.0 mmol/L (140 to 180 mg/dL). For patients with diabetes, the same parenteral nutrition formulae as for patients without diabetes can be used, as long as blood glucose levels can be adequately controlled using insulin. Insulin can be delivered via the subcutaneous or intravenous route or, alternatively, added to parenteral nutrition admixtures. Combining parenteral with enteral and oral nutrition can improve glycemic control in patients with sufficient endogenous insulin stores. Intravenous insulin infusion is the preferred route of insulin delivery in critical care as doses can be rapidly adjusted to altered requirements. For stable patients, insulin can be added directly to the parenteral nutrition bag. If parenteral nutrition is infused continuously over 24 hours, the subcutaneous injection of a long-acting insulin combined with correctional bolus insulin may be adequate. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the management of parenteral nutrition-associated hyperglycemia in inpatients with diabetes.

Abstract
Objective: To review hypermanganesemia-induced toxicities in adult patients receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) therapy. Data Sources: A comprehensive literature review was conducted from June 2020 to May 2021 on PubMED, MEDLINE, Scopus, ProQuest, the Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), and Web of Science. Study Selection and Data Extraction: Keyword and Boolean phrase searches were conducted using the following terminology: "manganese" OR "manganesemia" OR "manganism" or "hypermanganesemia" AND "total parenteral nutrition" OR "PN" or "parenteral nutrition" AND "toxicity" OR "accumulation." Appropriate filters, including "humans" and "English" and NOT "reviews," were utilized on all databases to improve search outcomes. Data Synthesis: A total of 4 reports detailing hypermanganesemia in 57 patient encounters were included in this review. Significant heterogeneity exists with regard to the duration of manganese supplementation and the dose of manganese. Toxicity associated with manganese was observed in as few as 15 days. The dose of manganese, though likely governed by content in commercially available products, may regularly exceed the recommendations of clinical guidelines and should be limited to 55 µg/day. Select patients with underlying malignancy, those with significant and prolonged Vitamin D deficiency, or those who have acquired a SLC30A10 genetic mutation may be at an increased risk of developing manganese toxicity. Conclusions: Clinicians must be cognizant of the concentration of trace elements added to PN, as manganese, and perhaps other biometals, may accumulate when dosed above the recommended daily allowances.

Abstract
Background: Nutrient imbalance can frequently occur in patients with indications for parenteral nutrition (PN) after gastrointestinal surgery. This study aimed to compare the recommendations of a surgeon to those of a dietitian in the field of parenteral nutrition. Methods: This study was performed on 256 patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery who received PN, which included 120 patients who received PN based on recommendations of the surgeons and 136 patients who were referred to receive PN under the supervision of a dietitian in Razi Hospital in Rasht, Iran. Data on PN and clinical outcomes of the patients were collected. Results: Patients under the supervision of dietitians received higher vitamin B complex and lipids and lower vitamin A and vitamin E than the surgeon-supervised patients (all P < 0.001). In the group receiving PN under the supervision of a surgeon, the level of blood glucose (207 vs. 182, P < 0.01), sodium (138 vs. 136, P = 0.01), potassium (3.97 vs. 3.53, P < 0.01), and white blood cell count (9.83 vs. 9.28, P < 0.01) increased significantly at the end of the PN compared to baseline. In the group receiving PN under the supervision of a dietician, the level of serum Cr (1.23 vs. 1.32, P = 0.04), Mg (2.07 vs. 1.84, P < 0.01), and pH (7.45 vs. 7.5, P = 0.03) significantly improved after receiving parenteral nutrition compared to baseline. Conclusion: The amounts of nutrients recommended for PN by the surgeon and dietitian were different. Implementation of dietitian recommendations in critically ill patients under PN can improve patients' clinical parameters.

Comparing success rates in central venous catheter salvage for catheter-related bloodstream infections in adult patients on home parenteral nutrition: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Am J Clin Nutr 2021; 114:1173-1188. [PMID: 34038951 PMCID: PMC8408872 DOI: 10.1093/ajcn/nqab164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2020] [Accepted: 04/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) is a life-threatening complication of parenteral nutrition. Therefore, optimal management, ideally with catheter salvage, is required to maintain long-term venous access. OBJECTIVES We aimed to evaluate successful catheter salvage rates in patients on home parenteral nutrition (HPN). METHODS Studies were retrieved from medical databases, conference proceedings, and article reference lists. Data were collected relating to clinical outcomes of 3 treatments: systemic antibiotics, antimicrobial lock therapy (ALT), and catheter exchange. ORs and 95% CIs were calculated from a mixed logistic effects model. RESULTS From 10,036 identified publications, 28 met the inclusion criteria (22 cohort studies, 5 case-control studies, and 1 randomized clinical trial), resulting in a total of 4911 CRBSIs. To achieve successful catheter salvage, the addition of an antimicrobial lock solution was superior to systemic antibiotics alone (OR: 1.75; 95% CI: 1.21, 2.53; P = 0.003). Recurrence of infection was less common in studies that used ALT than in those that used systemic antibiotics alone (OR: 0.26; 95% CI: 0.11, 0.61; P = 0.002). The catheter exchange group was excluded from multilevel regression analysis because only 1 included study applied this treatment. Successful salvage rates were highest for coagulase-negative staphylococci, followed by Gram-negative rods and Staphylococcus aureus . CONCLUSIONS The addition of an antimicrobial lock solution seems beneficial for successful catheter salvage in HPN-dependent patients with a CRBSI. Future prospective randomized studies should identify the most effective and pathogen-specific strategy.This review was registered at www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO as CRD42018102959.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to establish neonatal serum triglyceride (TG) level reference ranges during lipid infusion and correlate peak TG with neonatal outcomes. STUDY DESIGN This is a retrospective review of 356 neonates with 696 TG measures obtained in four neonatal intensive care units between 2015 and 2017. TG was evaluated collectively to establish a reference range and a threshold limit. To analyze the effects of a higher TG threshold, neonates were categorized by their peak TG: <180 (TG<180), 180 to 400 (TG180-400), and > 400 mg/dL (TG>400). Univariable and multivariable regression models were constructed to compare peak TG to patient characteristic and clinical outcomes. RESULTS The frequency of TG > 400 mg/dL was 5% and found only in neonates weighing < 1.5 kg. Neonates in the TG180-400 (n = 91) group were significantly lower in birth weight and gestational age, had lower 5-minute APGAR scores, and had increased ventilatory requirement when compared with neonates in the TG<180 (n = 240) group (all p < 0.001). The TG180-400 group had increased risk of severe intraventricular hemorrhage (p = 0.02) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (p = 0.03). Elevated TG was associated with mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 14.4, p < 0.001) in univariable analysis, but the relationship weakened (OR: 4.4, p = 0.05) after adjusting for comorbidities in multivariable logistic regression. CONCLUSION It is unclear if the adverse outcomes seen in neonates with higher peak TG were due to elevated TG alone, or whether illness severity predicted the increased TG. More prospective studies are needed to further delineate the relationships.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is well recognized for its ability to provide nutrition to patients without the ability to digest enterally; however, PN must also be seen as a medication with associated adverse drug events similar to any other pharmacological agent that is administered to patients. Here we present a case report of localized lower back pain with central PN infusion. The initial areas of concern were the intravenous lipid emulsion, peripherally inserted central catheter placement, osmolarity of the formula, and the additives. The patient's back pain was ultimately felt to be an adverse reaction to the multivitamin component of the infusion based on an elimination trial of the PN components.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several diseases and clinical conditions can affect enteral nutrition and adequate gastrointestinal uptake. In this respect, parenteral nutrition (PN) is necessary for the provision of deficient trace elements. However, some essential elements, such as manganese (Mn) may be toxic to children and adults when parenterally administered in excess, leading to toxic, especially neurotoxic effects. AREAS COVERED Here, we briefly provide an overview on Mn, addressing its sources of exposure, the role of Mn in the etiology of neurodegenerative diseases, and focusing on potential mechanisms associated with Mn-induced neurotoxicity. In addition, we discuss the potential consequences of overexposure to Mn inherent to PN. EXPERT OPINION In this critical review, we suggest that additional research is required to safely set Mn levels in PN, and that eliminating Mn as an additive should be considered by physicians and nutritionists on a case by case basis in the meantime to avoid the greater risk of neurotoxicity by its presence. There is a need to better define clinical biomarkers for Mn toxicity by PN, as well as identify new effective agents to treat Mn-neurotoxicity. Moreover, we highlight the importance of the development of new guidelines and practice safeguards to protect patients from excessive Mn exposure and neurotoxicity upon PN administration.

Strategies to prevent drug incompatibility during simultaneous multi-drug infusion in intensive care units: a literature review. Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2021; 77:1309-1321. [PMID: 33768303 DOI: 10.1007/s00228-021-03112-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2020] [Accepted: 02/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Drug protocols in intensive care units may require the concomitant administration of many drugs as patients' venous accesses are often limited. A major challenge for clinicians is to limit the risk of simultaneously infusing incompatible drugs. Incompatibilities can lead to the formation of particles and inactivation of drugs, whose consequences on the body have already been indicated. Our objective was to assess current strategies to counter the risk of incompatible infusions and control the resulting clinical consequences. METHODS This review was independently conducted by three investigators in respect of the PRISMA statement. Three online databases were consulted. Full-text articles, notes, or letters written in English or French, published or in press between the 1990s and the end of February 2020, with clinical study design, were eligible. Parameters of interest were mainly number and size of particles, and a number of observed/avoided incompatibilities. RESULTS All in all, 382 articles were screened, 17 meeting all the acceptance criteria. The strategies outlined and assessed were filtration, the use of multi-lumen devices, the purging of infusion lines, incompatibility tables and databases, and the use of standard operating procedures. CONCLUSION Although many strategies have been developed in recent years to address drug incompatibility risks, clinical data is still lacking. All studies with in vitro design were excluded although some current innovative strategies, like niosomes, should be considered and studied by means of clinical data in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 2018 Lipids in Parenteral Nutrition summit involved a panel of experts in clinical nutrition, lipid metabolism, and pharmacology, to assess the current state of knowledge and develop expert consensus statements regarding the use of intravenous lipid emulsions in various patient populations and clinical settings. The main purpose of the consensus statements is to assist healthcare professionals by providing practical guidance on common clinical questions related to the provision of lipid emulsions as part of parenteral nutrition (PN). METHODS The summit was designed to allow interactive discussion and consensus development. The resulting consensus statements represent the collective opinion of the members of the expert panel, which was informed and supported by scientific evidence and clinical experience. RESULTS The current article summarizes the key discussion topics from the summit and provides a set of consensus statements designed to complement existing evidence-based guidelines. Lipid emulsions are a major component of PN, serving as a condensed source of energy and essential fatty acids. In addition, lipids modulate a variety of biologic functions, including inflammatory and immune responses, coagulation, and cell signaling. A growing body of evidence suggests that lipid emulsions containing ω-3 fatty acids from fish oil confer important clinical benefits via suppression of inflammatory mediators and activation of pathways involved in the resolution of inflammation. CONCLUSIONS This article provides a set of expert consensus statements to complement formal PN guideline recommendations.

Abstract
Drug packaging contributes to the harm-benefit balance of a treatment. Poorly designed packaging can lead to drug misuse with serious consequences. We report a potassium double dose medication error concerning an oral solution. It was triggered by a packaging flaw related to the dosage indicated on the box, expressed for both potassium salt and elemental potassium. Standardizing the units used on packaging and for prescriptions, by using millimoles, could be a solution to avoid this type of medication error.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Micronutrients, an umbrella term used to collectively describe vitamins and trace elements, are essential components of nutrition. Those requiring alternative forms of nutrition support are dependent on the prescribed nutrition regimen for their micronutrient provision. The purpose of this paper is to assist clinicians to bridge the gap between the available guidelines' recommendations and their practical application in the provision of micronutrients via the parenteral route to adult patients. METHODS Based on the available evidenced-based literature and existing guidelines, a panel of multidisciplinary healthcare professionals with significant experience in the provision of parenteral nutrition (PN) and intravenous micronutrients developed this international consensus paper. RESULTS The paper addresses 14 clinically relevant questions regarding the importance and use of micronutrients in various clinical conditions. Practical orientation on how micronutrients should be prescribed, administered, and monitored is provided. CONCLUSION Micronutrients are a critical component to nutrition provision and PN provided without them pose a considerable risk to nutrition status. Obstacles to their daily provision-including voluntary omission, partial provision, and supply issues-must be overcome to allow safe and responsible nutrition practice.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common gastrointestinal disease and the leading cause of hospital admission and healthcare burden among gastrointestinal disorders in many countries. Patients can present with varying degrees of inflammation and disease severity, ranging from self-limiting mild AP to devastating and fatal severe AP. Many factors contribute to malnutrition in AP, especially abnormal metabolism and catabolism related to inflammation. The concept of “pancreatic rest” is not evidence-based. There is however, emerging evidence that supports the use of oral or enteral nutrition to improve nutrition status and to reduce local and systemic inflammation, complications, and death. In mild disease, patients are generally able to initiate solid oral diet and do not require specialized nutrition care such as enteral or parenteral nutrition. In contrast, nutrition interventions are imperative in moderately severe and severe AP. The current article aims to review the latest evidence and suggest practical nutrition interventions in patients with AP, including nutrition requirements, routes of nutrition treatment, types of formula, and the role of nutritional supplements, such as glutamine, probiotics, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants.

Abstract
Background Cholestasis is a common but serious clinical condition in preterm neonates. The current management for preterm neonatal cholestasis has limitations. The aim of this study was to determine effects of Bifidobacterium supplementation on the prevention and alleviation of cholestasis in preterm infants with very low birth weight. Methods Preterm neonates with very low birth weight were enrolled in the Children's Hospital of Soochow University between December 2012 and December 2017. The patients were randomly assigned into Bifidobacterium and control groups, and effects of Bifidobacterium supplementation on the outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference in the baseline characteristics in the two groups. Notably, the proportion of cases with neonatal cholestasis was significantly lower, with fewer neonatal cholestasis-associated complications in the Bifidobacterium group compared with the control group (6% versus 22%, P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (days, P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the Bifidobacterium group exhibited less severe cholestasis and better improvement of the liver function than the control group as evidenced by the biochemical tests ( Conclusions Bifidobacterium supplementation has significantly preventive and other beneficial effects on the management of cholestasis in preterm infants with very low birth weight. Its long-term safety and effectiveness will need further investigation. This trial is registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (Registration No. ChiCTR1900022296).

Abstract
Introduction Introduction: the introduction of parenteral nutrition in preterm infants has meant a major advance in their prognosis, being the last few years very fruitful in terms of publication of guidelines in this area. Objectives: to know the formulation and preparation procedures of neonatal parenteral nutrition (NPN) in Spanish hospitals. Methods: a multi-centre survey was conducted in Pharmacy Services on the aforementioned processes. Results: fifty-five hospitals met inclusion criteria. Electronic prescription systems were use by 51 %, 65.5 % always formulated individually, while 34.4 % had predesigned formulas. Tricameral preparations were used by 13.0 %. In 52.7 % of cases, first day nutrition was prepared on demand, starting before 8 hours of life in 88.1 % of cases. Inorganic phosphate was the first option in 10.4 %, vitamins, trace elements and zinc were added daily in 92.7 %, 90.9 % and 70.9 % of cases, respectively. NPN including lipids in the same bag was formulated by 45.4 % of the hospitals, compared to 34.5 % where it was administered separately in all cases. In 50.9 % of hospitals they never added heparin to their NPN. The 89.1 % used photoprotected bags. The stability of the admixture varied from 24 hours to 15 days. Conclusion: the elaboration of the PPN in Spain is subject to great variability. There is controversy regarding the use of heparin and ternary mixtures, which is reflected in the variability of clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The risk of precipitation limits calcium and phosphate concentrations that can be administered parenterally to pediatric patients. As an alternative to dipotassium phosphate, sodium glycerophosphate (NaGlyP) is claimed to reduce the risk of precipitation in solutions for parenteral administration.
Objectives
To determine the calcium concentrations, NaGlyP, and dipotassium phosphate prescribed in pediatric parenteral nutrition orders and the cost–benefit of the organic phosphate.
Methods
We retrospectively collected cross-sectional data for parenteral nutrition orders from September 2014 to August 2015 for pediatric patients including neonates and children aged <18 years who were admitted to King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. Calcium concentration, calcium concentration adjustments, and costs of phosphate used per bag were analyzed.
Results
Of 2,192 parenteral nutrition orders, NaGlyP was used in 2,128 (97.1%) with calcium concentrations in the range of 0.84–139.91 mmol/L, which were significantly higher than calcium concentrations used with dipotassium phosphate (0.00–12.21 mmol/L, P < 0.001). There was no report of visible precipitation. Median costs of NaGlyP and dipotassium phosphate used per unit bag were not significantly different (35.88 and 41.25 Thai baht [THB] or 1.04 and 1.20 USD per bag, respectively, P>0.99; (1 USD equivalent to 34.241 THB U.S. Federal Reserve Bank G5.A annual average rate 2015).
Conclusions
Higher calcium concentrations could be achieved without increasing the direct cost per unit bag significantly as a result of using NaGlyP, an alternative to dipotassium phosphate as a source of phosphate for patients who require high amounts of calcium in parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
In July 2018, an intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) composed of 100% fish oil (Omegaven, Fresenius Kabi, Bad Homburg, Germany) received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval as a source of fatty acids and calories for infants and children with parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis. This soy-free fat source is rich in ω-3 fatty acids and α-tocopherol and contains few phytosterols. In comparison to conventional soybean oil ILE, this emulsion appears to be less hepatotoxic. The purpose of this paper is to guide the practitioner on the use of this alternative fat source in clinical practice and augment the material contained in the current package insert. This paper addresses various topics including the identification of which patients would benefit from fish oil ILE, dosing, administration, monitoring, potential adverse effects, and management strategies for fish oil ILE.

Abstract
Critically ill patients often require life support measures such as mechanical ventilation or haemodialysis. Despite the essential role of nutrition in patients’ recovery, the inappropriate use of medical nutrition therapy can have deleterious effects, as is the case with the use of respiratory, circulatory, or renal support. To increase awareness and to monitor the effects of inappropriate medical nutrition therapy, we propose to introduce the concept of nutritrauma in clinical practice, defined as metabolic adverse events related to the inappropriate administration of medical nutrition therapy or inadequate nutritional monitoring.

Abstract
Background and objectives: Parenteral nutrition (PN) is an integral part of the nutritional support of critically ill neonates in the intensive care units (ICU). The evaluation of a decision support system for total nutrients (DSSFTN) is of great importance for clinical practice. This study's aim was to evaluate the impact caused by implementation of a DSSFTN on PN support and neonatal growth. This pilot work was supported by the hospital PN team (PNT) in order to assess possible benefits stemming from the use of DSSFTN.Materials and methods: DSSFTN development is based on the incorporation of pharmaceutical and therapeutic protocols. Thirty-eight neonates were recruited. Inclusion criteria included: patients should (a) be hospitalized in ICU, (b) receive PN support at least for 15 days, (c) have birth weight 550-1600 g. One exclusion criterion was applied: patients should have no inborn error of metabolism. 15 doctors prescribed PN for two groups of neonates. PN was calculated by doctors for Group 1 (19 neonates) and respectively was calculated by the DSSFTN (and checked by doctors) for Group 2 (19 neonates). A questionnaire was completed later by doctors to evaluate DSSFTN.Results: The implementation of DSSFTN led to appropriate composition and administration of PN. Growth was not significantly different between the study groups. Compliance with guidelines was observed. DSSFTN ameliorated intercommunication among doctors.Conclusions: The implementation of DSSFTN enables health professionals to facilitate the complex task of prescribing. It ensures the consistency of PN prescriptions, as it leads to appropriate dosing in all nutrients. DSSFTN provides real-time PN interventions (clinical conditions and enteral amounts are included additionally) and minimizes exposure to human errors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) significantly improves survival in patients with persistent respiratory or cardiovascular failure, it also induces physiologic stress and disrupts homeostatic mechanisms. Patients undergoing ECMO support at our institution have required widely variable quantities of calcium supplementation for maintenance of normal calcium levels. Our primary objective was to assess the frequency of calcium abnormalities in pediatric and neonatal ECMO patients. Secondary objectives included quantifying electrolyte supplementation provided during ECMO and determining the relationships between calcium abnormalities and ECMO duration, mortality, and intensive care and hospital length of stay. METHODS We performed a single-center retrospective chart review of all patients less than 18 years of age who received ECMO support between July 1, 2013, and May 31, 2016. Clinical and laboratory data were reviewed for each patient for the duration of ECMO support, and the incidence of ionized calcium outside the reference range of 1.1 to 1.4 mmol/L beyond the first 24 hours of ECMO was recorded. RESULTS Seventy-eight patients were included in the study: 51 patients (65%) experienced at least one reading outside the normal ionized calcium range, while 27 patients (35%) were normocalcemic during their ECMO course. There were no differences between groups in the quantities of calcium, phosphate, or vitamin D administered during ECMO. Abnormal calcium levels were associated with a longer duration of ECMO (median 9 days vs 6 days, p = 0.0054), prolonged ICU length of stay (median 33 vs 18 days, p = 0.0055), and prolonged hospital length of stay (median 52 vs 40 days, p = 0.0239). No significant differences were found in survival to decannulation or survival to hospital discharge. CONCLUSIONS Calcium abnormalities occur frequently in pediatric and neonatal patients during ECMO and are associated with worse patient outcomes. The underlying physiology of these changes is thought to be related to ECMO-induced disruption of normal calcium homeostasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For newborn and preterm infants, standardised and individual parenteral nutrition (PN) is used. PN preparation is at risk for contamination and dosing errors. The quality of PN is crucial for infants and has a direct impact on their health status and safety. PURPOSE The aim of this study is to evaluate the physicochemical and microbial quality of PN for newborn and preterm infants prepared on a neonatal ward. METHODS Sampling of various individual PN prepared by nurses on a neonatal ward was performed. Formulations included maximal four electrolytes, variable dextrose and amino acid concentrations. Depending on the sample volume, up to three quality analyses were performed: (1) test for bacterial endotoxins by kinetic-chromogenic method, (2) sterility according to the European and US Pharmacopoeia, and (3) quantification of electrolytes by capillary electrophoresis and of dextrose by ultraviolet detection after enzymatic reaction of hexokinase. The concentrations obtained were evaluated based on the US and Swiss Pharmacopoeia specifications for compounded preparations and compared to the widened pharmacy specifications. RESULTS The composition of 86% of the 110 analysed PN prepared by nurses on the neonatal ward corresponded to their medical prescription. 14% were out of the acceptable widened pharmacy ranges. We found no microbial contamination in the samples. All PN were free from endotoxins. CONCLUSION Component concentrations of PN prepared on wards by nurses differed frequently and significantly from their medical prescription, and the deviation can be critical depending on the component and its mode of action. The sample size is too small to evaluate the microbial contamination.

Abstract
Routine administration of trace elements is recognised as a standard of care in children requiring parenteral nutrition. However, there is a lack of global consensus regarding trace elements provision and dosing in pediatric parenteral nutrition. This review provides an overview of available evidence regarding trace elements supply and posology in parenteral nutrition in neonates and children. Trace elements provision in children should be tailored to the weight and clinical condition of the child with emphasis on those at risk of toxicity or deficiency. Based on current evidence, there is a need to review the formulation of commercial solutions that contain multiple-trace elements and to enable individual trace elements additives to be available for specific indications. Literature supports the removal of chromium provision whereas manganese and molybdenum supplementation are debated. Preterm neonates may have higher parenteral requirements in iodine, selenium and copper than previously recommended. There is growing support for the routine provision of iron in long-term parenteral nutrition. Further studies on trace elements contamination of parenteral nutrition solutions are needed for a range of trace elements.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) therapy is a complex and critical therapy that requires special clinical knowledge, skills, and practice experience to avoid errors in prescribing, compounding, and clinical management of patients. Pharmacists with adequate clinical training and expertise in PN therapy can have pivotal role in the care of patients receiving PN therapy. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review was to describe and evaluate the different roles of pharmacists and their provided services related to PN therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive systematic literature review on the topic was conducted via PubMed database using several keywords related to the topic (from 1975 to 2017). Additional resources included the standards of practice and clinical guidelines from recognized organizations such as the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP). RESULTS Pharmacists have diverse roles in relation to PN therapy including the following: the assessment of patients' nutritional needs; the design, compounding, dispensing, and quality management of PN formulations; monitoring patients' response to PN therapy; supervision of home parenteral nutrition (HPN) programs; education of patients, caregivers, and other health care professionals on nutrition support and conducting PN-related research and quality improvement activities. These services seem to be variable across clinical settings and among different countries depending on the practice environment and pharmacists' clinical practice in these settings. However, each of these practice domains helps to support the delivery of safe and effective PN therapy to patients. CONCLUSION Pharmacists have been actively participating in providing PN-related services to patients. To fulfill the requirements of their essential role in this area of practice, pharmacists need adequate educational preparation and clinical training on nutrition support. Empowerment of pharmacists to assume a stronger leadership role in this dimension of pharmacy practice will enhance the quality of care provided to patients receiving PN therapy and improve PN services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions containing calcium gluconate (CaGlu) and cysteine have elevated particle counts when analyzed using laser light obscuration (LO) as recommended by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). There are no compatibility studies for solutions compounded with cysteine and containing calcium chloride (CaCl2 ) using LO. The purpose of this study was to conduct compatibility testing for neonatal PN solutions containing CaCl2 and CaGlu with cysteine. METHODS Solutions of amino acids (2.5%), containing either CaCl2 or CaGlu plus potassium phosphate, were compounded with 50 and 100 mg/dL cysteine. Solutions were analyzed for particle counts using LO. Maximum concentrations tested were 20 mmol/L calcium and 15 mmol/L phosphate. Three solutions containing CaCl2 (144 total solutions) and 2 containing CaGlu (96 total solutions) and the same concentration of additives were compounded. If the average particle count of replicates exceeded USP guidelines, the solution was incompatible. RESULTS All solutions containing CaGlu had particle counts that exceeded USP guidelines for particle counts ≥10 μm (range, 86-580 particles/mL). For CaCl2 , 90 of 144 solutions were compatible (range of particle counts for all solutions, 3-121 particles/mL). Maximum compatible concentrations of CaCl2 and potassium phosphate were 15 mmol/L and 12.5 mmol/L, respectively, for solutions containing both 50 and 100 mg/dL cysteine. CONCLUSION This study found that neonatal PN solutions containing CaGlu with added cysteine have significantly higher particle counts, exceeding USP guidelines for compatibility, than those containing CaCl2 .

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osmotic stress is a physical risk factor for adverse events related to peripheral parenteral nutrition (PN) administration, such as infiltration. We sought to improve prediction of compounded PN osmolality utilizing basic nutrient solutions available to North American neonatal intensive care units. This study tested the hypothesis that calculated osmolarity underestimates osmolality in compounded PN. METHODS Osmolarity (mOsm/L) was calculated utilizing commercial software. Osmolality (mOsm/kg) was determined by a freezing-point depression micro-osmometer. The relationship between calculated osmolarity and measured osmolality was modeled from linear or polynomial regression analysis using the least squares method. Regression models were based upon calculated osmolarity and included various combinations of PN components. RESULTS Calculated osmolarity significantly underestimated measured osmolality in all PN samples (n = 363). Based upon the osmolality of PN and the basic nutrient solutions, we determined a polynomial regression that effectively corrects for the osmolal gap (measured osmolality-calculated osmolarity) in the validation set (R2 = 0.99367). The unbiased analysis corrected for the osmolal gap based on individual solute behaviors, as well as the solute-solute interactions in compounded solutions. CONCLUSIONS Calculated osmolarity (mOsm/L) significantly underestimates the osmolality (mOsm/kg) in compounded PN. We developed a new algorithm to more accurately predict PN osmolality based upon calculated osmolarity from commercial software and composition of neonatal basic nutrient solutions used in North America. We propose that use of this PN algorithm will facilitate future studies to determine whether a causal association exists between PN osmolality and adverse events, and to establish safe thresholds for PN concentration in neonates.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a complex therapeutic modality provided to neonates, children, and adults for various indications. Surveys have shown that current electronic health record (EHR) systems are in need of functionality enhancement for safe and optimal delivery of PN. This is a consensus statement from the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists outlining some of the key challenges to prescribing, order review/verification, compounding, and administration of PN using EHRs today and is a call to action for clinicians and vendors to optimize their EHRs regarding the PN build and workflow.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a complex therapeutic modality provided to neonates, children, and adults for various indications. Surveys have shown that current electronic health record (EHR) systems are in need of functionality enhancement for safe and optimal delivery of PN. This is a consensus statement from the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists outlining some of the key challenges to prescribing, order review/verification, compounding, and administration of PN using EHRs today and is a call to action for clinicians and vendors to optimize their EHRs regarding the PN build and workflow.

Abstract
Intravenous lipid emulsions (ILEs) have been an integral component of parenteral nutrition for more than 50 years. Numerous formulations are available and are based on vegetable (soybean, olive, coconut) and animal (fish) oils. Therefore, each of these formulations has a unique fatty acid composition that offers both benefits and limitations. As clinical experience and our understanding of the effects of fatty acids on various physiological processes has grown, there is evidence to suggest that some ILEs may have benefits compared with others. Current evidence suggests that olive oil-based ILE may preserve immune, hepatobiliary, and endothelial cell function, and may reduce lipid peroxidation and plasma lipid levels. There is good evidence from a large randomized controlled study to support a benefit of olive oil-based ILE over soybean oil-based ILE on reducing infections in critically ill patients. At present there is limited evidence to demonstrate a benefit of olive oil-based ILE over other ILEs on glucose metabolism, and few data exist to demonstrate a benefit on clinical outcomes such as hospital or intensive care unit stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, or mortality. We review the current research and clinical evidence supporting the potential positive biological and clinical aspects of olive oil-based ILE and conclude that olive oil-based ILE is well tolerated and provides effective nutritional support to various PN-requiring patient populations. Olive oil-based ILE appears to support the innate immune system, is associated with fewer infections, induces less lipid peroxidation, and is not associated with increased hepatobiliary or lipid disturbances. These data would suggest that olive oil-based ILE is a valuable option in various PN-requiring patient populations.

Does a Dedicated Lumen for Parenteral Nutrition Administration Reduce the Risk of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections? A Systematic Literature Review. JOURNAL OF INFUSION NURSING 2018; 41:122-130.

Abstract
Guidelines recommend using single-lumen central vascular access devices (CVADs) for the administration of parenteral nutrition (PN) or lipid-based solutions, or a dedicated lumen on a multilumen CVAD. Publications reviewed by the authors reported comparative rates of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CR-BSI) in patients with CVADs who received PN through a dedicated lumen compared with those who had PN administered through multilumen CVADs. Two studies included 650 patients with 1349 CVADs. CR-BSIs were equally distributed between the 2 groups. Both studies were poorly reported and had significant risk of bias. These results should be interpreted with caution.

Effectiveness of in-Line Filters to Completely Remove Particulate Contamination During a Pediatric Multidrug Infusion Protocol. Sci Rep 2018; 8:7714.

Abstract
The large number of drugs administered simultaneously to neonates and children in hospital results in the formation of particles that are potentially infused. We have investigated the ability of IV in-line filters to eliminate particulate matter from multidrug infusion lines and so prevent contamination. The impact on particle occurrence of the internal volume of the IV line below the in-line filter was then evaluated. The multidrug therapy given to children was reproduced with and without in-line filtration. Three combinations with a filter were tested to vary the internal volume (V) between the filter and the catheter egress. The catheter was then connected to a dynamic particle count to evaluate the particulate matter potentially administered to children during infusion. The introduction of in-line filters led to a significant reduction in overall particulate matter, from 416,974 [208,479-880,229] to 7,551 [1,985-11,287] particles (p < 0.001). Larger particles of ≥10 and 25 µm were also significantly reduced. Adding an extension set to the egress of the in-line filter (V = 1.7 mL) caused a significant increase in particulate contamination for both. This study showed that in-line filtration is an effective tool in preventing particle administration to patients. Their position in the infusion in-line is therefore important because of its impact on internal volume and drug particle formation.

Abstract
Technology is constantly being used in novel ways, and its use in the practice of medicine is no exception. Examples of this include computer physician order entry, barcode-medication scanning, electronic health records (EHRs), and bedside patient charts, to name a few. Compounding parenteral nutrition has been included in this technological revolution, with improvements such as barcode-assisted medication preparation systems and EHR-to-compounder interfaces. Along with some of these electronic advancements come the inevitable improvements and challenges, which are explored in this article.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intermittent parenteral copper supplementation (IPC) on serum copper status and biochemical and hematological measures of copper toxicity and deficiency in premature infants with parenteral nutrition (PN)-associated cholestasis (PNAC). We performed a prospective nested observational study in premature infants with PNAC who received IPC after the development of PNAC. Infants with chromosomal disorders, TORCH (toxoplasmosis, parvovirus, syphilis, rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes, human immunodeficiency virus) infection, metabolic disorder, and/or surgical abnormality of the hepatobiliary system were excluded. Serum copper concentrations were measured once every 2-4 weeks while receiving PN; 24 premature infants were studied. The mean gestational age (GA) of infants was 28.6 ± 4.7 weeks. On regression analysis, there was no significant association between IPC and serum copper concentration (coefficient 2.72, 95% CI: -27 to 32; P = .84) after controlling for GA, gender, and baseline copper intake before PNAC. There was no significant association of IPC with alanine and aspartate transaminases levels (hepatotoxicity) and platelet count, hematocrit, white blood cell count, and neutrophil count (measures of copper deficiency) after controlling for confounders. GA and postmenstrual age were independently and positively associated with serum copper concentration after controlling for confounders on regression analyses. Thus, IPC in premature infants with PNAC does not influence copper status and is not associated with biochemical and hematological measures of copper deficiency and/or toxicity. Serum copper concentration in premature infants with PNAC receiving IPC is determined by the degree of prematurity and postmenstrual age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of neonatal parenteral protein intake for preterm infants is challenging and requires daily modifications of the dose to account for the infant's postnatal age, birth weight, current weight, and the volume and protein concentration of concurrent enteral nutrition. The objective of this study was to create and evaluate the Parenteral Protein Calculator (PPC), a clinical decision support system to improve the accuracy of protein intake for preterm infants who require parenteral nutrition (PN). MATERIALS AND METHODS We integrated the PPC into the computerized provider order entry system and tested it in a randomized controlled trial (routine or PPC). Infants were eligible if they were ≤3 days old, had a birth weight ≤1500 g, and had no inborn error of metabolism. The primary outcome was the appropriate total protein intake, defined as target protein dose ±0.5 g/kg. RESULTS We randomly allocated 42 infants for 221 PN days in the control group and 211 in the PPC group. Total protein intake in the PPC group was more accurate as compared with the control group (appropriate protein dosing: odds ratio = 5.8; 95% CI, 2.7-12.4). Absolute deviation from protein target was 0.41 g/kg (0.24-0.58) lower in the PPC group. CONCLUSION The PPC improved appropriate protein dosing for premature infants receiving PN. Further studies are needed to test whether clinical decision support systems will reduce uremia and improve growth and to replicate similar findings in the cases of other PN nutrients.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-sustaining therapy in patients with intestinal failure who are unable to tolerate enteral feedings. Patient selection should be based on a thorough assessment to identify those at high nutrition risk based on both disease severity and nutritional status. This article reviews both the acute and chronic indications for PN as well as special formulation consideration in specific disease states, vascular access, and complications of both short-term and long-term PN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recommendations prescribe daily intravenous administration set (IVAS) replacement for parenteral nutrition (PN) comprising intravenous fat emulsions (IVFE) due to risk of micro-organism growth and resultant central-line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), but system disconnection for this practice may allow contamination and CLABSIs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Laboratory experiments and model development were used to simulate PN administration after contamination from healthcare workers' hands. This study observed the growth of micro-organisms known to cause CLABSIs in a variety of PN and other IV fluids and developed a model to investigate the effect of delaying IVAS replacement on microbial growth for up to 7 days. RESULTS Micro-organisms grew at different rates and were affected by solution type. In static experiments, growth was supported in IVFE and all-in-one PN, but suppressed in 50% glucose. Growth patterns were consistent over time for Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans in IVFE, all-in-one PN, and 0.9% sodium chloride in both static and dynamic experiments. C. albicans grew exponentially to clinically significant numbers in all-in-one PN and IVFE IVAS after 30 hours, but negligible growth of S. epidermidis or S. aureus occurred for 7 days. CONCLUSION All-in-one PN and IVFE support the C. albicans growth after minimal initial contamination, with micro-organisms migrating from the fluid bag to the central venous access device. Improved aseptic nontouch technique during clinical practice is vital to prevent contamination. Daily IVAS replacement of for all-in-one PN and IVFE should continue until the safety of prolonging IVAS replacement is confirmed by randomized trials.

Serum Magnesium Levels in Preterm Infants Are Higher Than Adult Levels: A Systematic Literature Review and Meta-Analysis. Nutrients 2017; 9:nu9101125.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) is an essential mineral in the body, impacting the synthesis of biomacromolecules, bone matrix development, energy production, as well as heart, nerve, and muscle function. Although the importance of Mg is evident, reference values for serum Mg (sMg) in pediatric patients (more specifically, in neonates) are not well established. This systematic literature review and meta-analysis (using 47 eligible studies) aims to quantify normal and tolerable ranges of sMg concentrations during the neonatal period and to highlight the factors influencing Mg levels and the importance of regulating sMg levels during pregnancy and birth. In newborns without Mg supplementation during pregnancy, magnesium levels at birth (0.76 (95% CI: 0.52, 0.99) mmol/L) were similar to that of mothers during pregnancy (0.74 (95% CI: 0.43, 1.04) mmol/L), but increased during the first week of life (0.91 (95% CI: 0.55, 1.26) mmol/L) before returning to adult levels. This pattern was also seen in newborns with Mg supplementation during pregnancy, where the average was 1.29 (95% CI: 0.50, 2.08) mmol/L at birth and 1.44 (95% CI: 0.61, 2.27) mmol/L during the first week of life. Factors influencing these levels include prenatal Mg supplementation, gestational age, birth weight, renal maturity/function, and postnatal Mg intake. Elevated Mg levels (>2.5 mmol/L) have been associated with an increased risk of mortality, admission into intensive care, hypotonia, hypotension, and respiratory depression but sMg concentrations up to 2.0 mmol/L appear to be well tolerated in neonates, requiring adequate survey and minimal intervention.

Abstract
Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) and home intravenous (IV) hydration are complex, high-risk life-sustaining therapies for children and adults with severe digestive disorders. HPN compounding errors have the potential to cause serious patient harm. Here we present a retrospective case series at an interdisciplinary pediatric HPN program that includes specialized pharmacists reconciling prescriptions against commercial compounding records. Seven HPN or IV hydration patients were affected by significant errors in anion balance, copper, potassium, sodium, and infusion volume. Outpatient pharmacists' or other clinicians' review of compounding records as part of routine quality assurance process is critical for identifying and preventing errors.

Abstract
Objective: To present a guideline-derived mnemonic that provides a systematic monitoring process to increase pharmacists’ confidence in total parenteral nutrition (TPN) monitoring and improve safety and efficacy of TPN use. Data Sources: The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) guidelines were reviewed. Additional resources included a literature search of PubMed (1980 to May 2016) using the search terms: total parenteral nutrition, mnemonic, indications, allergy, macronutrients, micronutrients, fluid, comorbidities, labs, peripheral line, and central line. Articles (English-language only) were evaluated for content, and additional references were identified from a review of literature citations. Study Selection and Data Extraction: All English-language observational studies, review articles, meta-analyses, guidelines, and randomized trials assessing monitoring parameters of TPN were evaluated. Data Synthesis: The ASPEN guidelines were referenced to develop key components of the mnemonic. Review articles, observational trials, meta-analyses, and randomized trials were reviewed in cases where guidelines did not adequately address these components. Conclusions: A guideline-derived mnemonic was developed to systematically and safely manage TPN therapy. The mnemonic combines 7 essential components of TPN use and monitoring: Indications, Allergies, Macro/Micro nutrients, Fluid, Underlying comorbidities, Labs, and Line type.
