Download or read book Intravenous Lipid Emulsions written by P.C. Calder and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lipids have been in clinical use as components of intravenous nutrition for over 50 years. Over the last 15 years, new and improved lipids that include olive oil and/or fish oil have replaced the more traditional ones. These new lipids offer the opportunity to deliver high amounts of fatty acids and possess different functional properties: in particular, they can influence inflammatory processes, immune responses and hepatic metabolism. This book brings together articles written by leading international authorities in the area of intravenous lipids. Contributions discuss the latest findings in the field, ranging from pre-clinical research to the most recent clinical trials. Lipid functionality and utility in pediatric, adult surgical and critically ill patients are covered, as is the use of lipids in long-term home parenteral nutrition. Addressing a broad spectrum of topics, this publication provides a wealth of information for basic scientists, clinical researchers and clinical practitioners alike.

Download or read book Nutritional Care of Preterm Infants written by B. Koletzko and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improved conditions of care for premature infants have led to markedly increased survival rates over the last few decades, particularly in very low and extremely low birth weight infants. Nutritional measures play a central role in the long-term outcome, health and quality of life of these premature infants. In this publication, leading experts from all 5 continents present the most recent evidence and critical analyses of nutrient requirements and the practice of nutritional care (with the focus on very low birth weight infants) to provide guidance for clinical application. After the introductory chapters, covering nutritional needs and research evidence in a more general manner, topics such as amino acids and proteins, lipids, microminerals and vitamins, parenteral and enteral nutrition as well as approaches to various disease conditions are addressed. Due to its focus on critical appraisals and recommendations, this book is of interest not only for the researcher who wants to keep up to date, but also for the clinician faced with premature infants in his practice.
Download or read book Development of Lipid Emulsion for Parenteral Nutrition written by Supinda Ruangthurakit and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preparation method of parenteral lipid emulsion was studied. The medium chain triglycerides (MCT oil) and long chain triglycerides (soybean oil) were used at concentrations of 5%, 10% and 20%. The emulsifiers used were soy lecithin, synthetic nonionic surfactants; namely, Cremophor EL, poloxamer 188, Solutol HS15 and Tween 80. The emulsifiers were used either alone or in combination between soy lecithin and synthetic nonionic surfactant. The methods of preparation were varied in homogenization time, pressure and cycles through high pressure homogenizer. The formulations were sterilized by autoclaving. The results indicated that formulations composed of the combination of soy lecithin and Tween 80 and soy lecithin and poloxamer 188 could form stable emulsion. The lipid emulsion containing 10% soybean oil emulsified by 1.71% soy lecithin and 1.29% Tween 80 was the best formulation and was called "10% Pharmalipid". The particle sizes (d(v,0.5)) of such formulation before and after autoclaving were 0.31 and 0.33 um, respectively, which were insignificantly different (p>0.05). The pH, osmolality and the value of zeta potential of the emulsion were 6.8, 337 mOsm/kg water and -33.52 millivolts, respectively. The pH and zeta potential were slightly decreased upon storage at room temperature while the d(v,0.5) and osmolality remain constant. The developed emulsion and five commercial lipid emulsions; namely, 10% and 20% Intralipid, 10% and 20% Lipofundin MCT/LCT and 10% Lipofundin-S were used to prepare the total nutrient admixtures (TNA) by mixing with amino acid and dextrose solution. The physical stability and physicochemical properties of TNA were analyzed immediately after mixing and after storage at room temperature for 24 hours. The pH of TNA system was weakly acidic and remained constant throughout the period of study and the osmolality was slightly hyperosmotic. Moreover, the zeta potential was slightly decreased and the d(v,0.5) of emulsion in TNA systems remained close to that of the original lipid emulsion.

Download or read book Paediatric Parenteral Nutrition written by Kathrin Krohn and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parenteral nutrition in general is required if nutritional needs cannot be met by oral or enteral feeding. In the paediatric patient, its initiation depends both on individual circumstances and the age and size of the infant or child. This compact reference work on parenteral nutrition in children is based on the 'Guidelines for Paediatric Parenteral Nutrition' that have been developed jointly by the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) and the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN), in collaboration with the European Society for Paediatric Research (ESPR).These guidelines were based on systematic literature reviews as well as a formal consensus process of a multidisciplinary panel of professionals. However, as a result of the scarcity of good quality clinical trials in children, many of the recommendations were extrapolated from adult studies and based on expert opinion. A detailed analysis of the available data was performed, and for each statement, the level of evidence and grade of recommendation was assessed. This reference guide has been conceived as an aid for the treating physician to assist him in the decision process, thus being a valuable companion in clinical practice.

This book was released on 1994-02-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physiological or psychological stresses that employees bring to their workplace affect not only their own performance but that of their co-workers and others. These stresses are often compounded by those of the job itself. Medical personnel, firefighters, police, and military personnel in combat settingsâ€"among othersâ€"experience highly unpredictable timing and types of stressors. This book reviews and comments on the performance-enhancing potential of specific food components. It reflects the views of military and non-military scientists from such fields as neuroscience, nutrition, physiology, various medical specialties, and performance psychology on the most up-to-date research available on physical and mental performance enhancement in stressful conditions. Although placed within the context of military tasks, the volume will have wide-reaching implications for individuals in any job setting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no other time in life when the provision of adequate and balanced nutrition is of greater importance than during infancy and childhood. During this dynamic phase characterized by rapid growth, development and developmental plasticity, a sufficient amount and appropriate composition of nutrients both in health and disease are of key importance for growth, functional outcomes such as cognition and immune response, and the metabolic programming of long-term health and well-being. This compact reference text provides concise information to readers who seek quick guidance on practical issues in the nutrition of infants, children and adolescents. After the success of the first edition, which sold more than 50'000 copies in several languages, the editors prepared this thoroughly revised and updated second edition which focuses again on nutritional challenges in both affluent and poor populations around the world. Serving as a practical reference guide, this book will contribute to further improving the quality of feeding of healthy infants and children, as well as enhancing the standards of nutritional care in sick children.
