Complete shielding of multivitamins to reduce toxic peroxides in the parenteral nutrition (C-SMART-PN): A randomized controlled pilot study.

Nutr Clin Pract

Department of Nutrition, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Sainte-Justine Research Center, Université de Montréal, Montréal, Québec, Canada.

Background: When exposed to ambient light, parenteral nutrition (PN) contamination with peroxides almost doubles, which increases oxidative stress in preterm infants, contributing to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) recommends complete PN photoprotection to reduce peroxide contamination and optimize its integrity but acknowledges the challenges of its implementation. In this study, a novel photoprotection procedure was tested for its effectiveness in reducing peroxide load and limiting ascorbic acid degradation, and for its feasibility and effectiveness in reducing urinary peroxide levels in preterm infants.

Objectives: Critically ill newborn infants often require simultaneous administration of multiple intravenous (IV) solutions through the same catheter lumen, making compatibility of these solutions crucial in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). This study aimed to investigate the physical compatibility of insulin aspart, lidocaine, alprostadil and vancomycin with individualised two-in-one parenteral nutrition (PN).

Methods: The study was conducted at the hospital pharmacy's drug compounding facility of the University Medical Centre Utrecht.

Introduction: Intravenous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used in healthcare settings, but their comparative safety and resource utilization impacts remain understudied. This study aimed to compare adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) between patients receiving IV-ibuprofen versus IV/IM ketorolac.

Methods: A retrospective, longitudinal analysis was conducted using an all-payer database, examining records from January 1, 2014, to June 3, 2023.

Introduction Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of preventable childhood blindness. We investigated the association of early postnatal low-dose intravenous hydrocortisone used for the prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) with ROP-outcome among extremely preterm infants in a Swedish cohort. Methods This retrospective cohort study included extremely preterm infants born before 28 weeks of gestational age (GA).

A murine model of acute and prolonged abdominal sepsis, supported by intensive care, reveals time-dependent metabolic alterations in the heart.

Intensive Care Med Exp

Background: Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM) often occurs in the acute phase of sepsis and is associated with increased mortality due to cardiac dysfunction. The pathogenesis remains poorly understood, and no specific treatments are available. Although SICM is considered reversible, emerging evidence suggests potential long-term sequelae.
