Long-term assessment of bilirubin and transaminase trends in pediatric intestinal failure patients during the era of hepatoprotective parenteral nutrition

This study aimed to characterize the relationship between hepatoprotective parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence and long-term serum liver tests in children with intestinal failure (IF). A retrospective review was performed of children with severe IF (> 90 consecutive days of PN) who were followed...

Description
Summary:This study aimed to characterize the relationship between hepatoprotective parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence and long-term serum liver tests in children with intestinal failure (IF). A retrospective review was performed of children with severe IF (> 90 consecutive days of PN) who were followed from 2012 to 2019 at a multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation program. Patients were stratified into three groups based on level of PN dependence at most recent follow up: EN (achieved enteral autonomy), mixed (parenteral and enteral nutrition), and PN (> 75% of caloric intake from PN). PN at any point for this cohort was hepatoprotective, defined as soy-based lipids
