Tolerance of intravenously administered lipid in newborns. 1985

R de Leeuw, and K Kok, and I J De Vries, and N Beganović

The tolerance for intravenously administered Intralipid in 262 premature and sick newborns was studied. The serum concentrations of triglycerides and of free fatty acids were determined during total parenteral nutrition including Intralipid in a maximum daily dose of 2 g/kg. A serum concentration of 1.5 mmol/l or higher was found in 270 out of 985 triglyceride determinations (27.4%). In the 262 infants serum triglyceride concentrations were found elevated once or more in 117 cases (44.7%). Serum free fatty acids concentrations were normal. A highly significant inverse correlation (p less than 0.001) between birth weight and triglyceride level was found. Elevated serum triglyceride concentrations were observed especially in preterm small-for-gestational-age infants.

D010288 Parenteral Nutrition The administering of nutrients for assimilation and utilization by a patient who cannot maintain adequate nutrition by enteral feeding alone. Nutrients are administered by a route other than the alimentary canal (e.g., intravenously, subcutaneously). Intravenous Feeding,Nutrition, Parenteral,Parenteral Feeding,Feeding, Intravenous,Feeding, Parenteral,Feedings, Intravenous,Feedings, Parenteral,Intravenous Feedings,Parenteral Feedings
D010289 Parenteral Nutrition, Total The delivery of nutrients for assimilation and utilization by a patient whose sole source of nutrients is via solutions administered intravenously, subcutaneously, or by some other non-alimentary route. The basic components of TPN solutions are protein hydrolysates or free amino acid mixtures, monosaccharides, and electrolytes. Components are selected for their ability to reverse catabolism, promote anabolism, and build structural proteins.

D005865 Gestational Age The age of the conceptus, beginning from the time of FERTILIZATION. In clinical obstetrics, the gestational age is often estimated from the onset of the last MENSTRUATION which is about 2 weeks before OVULATION and fertilization. It is also estimated to begin from fertilization, estrus, coitus, or artificial insemination.
