The Cost

A 35-year-old man, who had spent 10[Formula: see text] out of 18 months in hospital, has required repeated courses of intravenous nutrition (IVN) because of nutritional failure due to severe inflammatory bowel disease. He has been maintained on a nocturnal pump-fed liquid diet supplementing his day-time oral diet jar five months, four of which have been at home. The cost of such therapy is less than with an elemental diet and there are other advantages. This regime has been shown to be nutritionally adequate. The need to assess other cheaper liquid diets in patients with intestinal failure is recognised.

Intravenous Nutrition

Background—Reticuloendothelial system function is impaired in humans receiving lipid regimens.Aims—To evaluate the effects of long term administration of long chain triglyceride emulsions on reticuloendothelial system function.Methods—Splenic function and tuftsin activity were measured in 20 patients on intravenous nutrition for intestinal failure, 20 patients with Crohn’s disease who were not receiving intravenous nutrition, and 50 healthy controls.Results—Pitted red cells counts in patients on intravenous nutrition (8.0%) were significantly higher (p<0.001) than in healthy controls (0.6%) and in patients with Crohn’s disease (0.9%). No difference was found between healthy controls and patients with Crohn’s disease. There was a correlation (r=0.50; p<0.03) between percentage of pitted red cells and duration of intravenous nutrition. Tuftsin activity was significantly reduced in the intravenous nutrition patient group (6%) compared with both disease controls (16.5%, p<0.01) and healthy volunteers (17.8%, p<0.001) . An inverse correlation between tuftsin activity and pitted red cell percentage was found in the patients on intravenous nutrition (rs =−0.44, p<0.05). No relation was found in the patients on intravenous nutrition between pitted red cell percentage or tuftsin activity and type of disease, percentage of ideal body weight, residual length of small intestine, or administration (quantity and frequency) of lipid emulsion. Eight patients on intravenous nutrition had serious infections within the previous 12 months.Conclusions—Patients with a short bowel treated with long term intravenous nutrition have impaired splenic function, reduced tuftsin activity, and an increased risk of infection.

Intravenous Nutrition

A solution for intravenous nutrition which contains amino acids, glucose, electrolytes, and vitamins was infused during long periods through peripheral veins in five neonatal surgical patients. Weight gain and tissue healing were obtained while this solution represented the sole source of nutrition for as long as 51 days. The need for long-term central venous catheterization and its attendant risks were eliminated by the infusion of large volumes (200 to 250 ml/kg/24 hr) of a solution whose solute concentration (total solute 500 to 850 mOsm/kg of water) was significantly lower than that of conventional "hyperalimentation" solutions. The large fluid volumes were well tolerated and the infants maintained normal serum osmolalities, serum electrolytes, and acid-base status.

Intravenous Nutrition

A case of priapism following prolonged intravenous nutrition is reported. The small amounts of heparin as received by our patient would tend to minimise a risk of hypercoagulability. However, the administration of intravenous feeding agents and the concomitant metabolic acidosis may have enhanced this risk.
