- IVFE: 10%=1.1 cal; 20%=2.0 cals
-
Parenteral Nutrition
- infusion of hypertonic solutoin to central venous catheter
- last option when pt cannot eat
- Use for NC 1.4 (altered GI) and CC 2.1 (impaired nutrient utilization)
-
- Concern: bacteria translocation; GALT (gut associated lymphoid tissue) is compromised--immune system is compromised
-
Protein Solution in PN
- Ratio for anabolism is 1 g nitrogen: 150 cals
- 1-1.5 g/kg/day
- cystalline AA: 3-15%
- %=number of g of pro in 100mL of solution
example: a 3% solution has 3 g of AA's in 100ml
-
Energy in a PN solution
- 35-50 cals/kg; up to 70% dextrose
- a 10% solution provides 100mg CHO/Liter
- to avoid overfeeding and hyperglycemia, start at <20-25 cals/kg
- max rate of dextrose should not exceed 4 to 5 mg/kg/minute to prevent hyperglycemia
-
Fat for a PN Solution
- Needed to prevent EFAD
- give 500 cc of 10% fat emulsion 1-2x/week
- symptoms of EFAD are petechiae (red spots)
-
TNA
- Total Nutrient Admiztures
- 3 in one: dextrose, AA's and lipids
-
Transition feeding from PN
- Introduce a min amount of FULL-STRENGTH enteral feeding at a low rate (30-40) to get GI tolerance
- decrease PN as you increase enteral rate by 25-30 every 8-24 hours
- when pt can tolerate 75% of needs, d/c the PN
-
Re-feeding Syndrome
- aggressive adimin of nutrition to malnourished
- starved cells take up nutrients, pot and phos shift to intracellular compartments
- results in hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia, hypomagnesemia
overfeeding PN and dextrose >5 mg/kg/min may lead to hyperglycemia
-
CAM (Complimentary and alternative medicine)
- mind-body meds
- acupuncture, oriental meds
