Glucose 11% + Vamin 18 Novum + Intralipid 20%

Composition

The volumes (1440 ml) of the components are the following:
  • Glucose 11%: 885 ml
  • Vamin 18 Novum: 300 ml
  • Intralipid 20%: 255 ml
Total energy content: 1000 kcal

Indications

This parenteral nutrition is indicated for patients and children above 2 years of age when oral or enteral nutrition is impossible, insufficient or contraindicated.

Dosage

The dose should be individualized and the choice of bag size should be made with regard to the patient's clinical condition, body weight, and nutritional requirements

Adult patients: The nitrogen requirements for maintenance of body protein mass depend on the patient's condition (e.g. nutritional state and degree of catabolic stress). The requirements are 0.10-0.15 g nitrogen/kg/day in the normal nutritional state. In patients with moderate to high metabolic stress with or without malnutrition, the requirements are in the range of 0.15-030 g nitrogen/kg/day (1.0-2.0 g amino acid/kg/day); The corresponding commonly accepted requirements are 2-6 g for glucose and 1.0-2.0 g for fat.

The total energy requirement depends on the patient's clinical condition and is often between 20-30 kcal/kg/day In obese patients, the dose should be based on the estimated ideal weight. This solution is produced in three sizes intended for patients with moderately increased, basal or low nutritional requirements. To provide total parenteral nutrition, the addition of trace elements, vitamins and supplemental electrolytes may be required. The dose range of 0.10-0 15 g N/kg/day (0.7-1.0 g amino acid/kg/day) and total energy of 20-30 kcal body weight/day corresponds to approx. 27-40 ml/kg/day.

Children: The ability to metabolize individual nutrients must determine the dosage. In general the infusion for small children (2-10 years) should start with a low dose l.e. 14-28 ml/kg (corresponding to 0.49-0.98 g fat/kg/day, 0.34-0.67 g amino acids/kg/day and 0.95-1.9 g glucose/kg/day) and increased by 10-15 ml/kg/day up to maximum dosage of 40 ml/kg/day. For children over 10 years of age the dosage for adults can be applied. The use of this solution is not recommended in children under 2 years of age in whom the amino acid cysteine may be considered conditionally essential.

Administration

Infusion rate: The maximum infusion rate for glucose is 0.25 g/kg/hour Amino acid dosage should not exceed 0.1 g/kg/hour Fat dosage should not provide more than 0.15 g/kg/hour The infusion rate should not exceed 3.7 ml/kg/hour (corresponding to 0.25 g glucose, 0.09 g amino acids, 0.13 g fat per kg body weight). The recommended infusion period for individual bags of this solution is 12-24 hours.

Method and duration of administration: Intravenous infusion into a Perifer or central vein. The infusion may be continued for as long as required by the patient's clinical condition. In order to minimize the risk of thrombophlebitis, daily rotation of the infusion site is recommended.

Interaction

The soybean oil present in this intravenous preparation has vitamin K1. Vitamin K1 can reverse the anticoagulant activity of coumarin and coumarin derivatives, including warfarin, which works by blocking recycling of vitamin K1. Monitor laboratory parameters for anticoagulant activity in patients who are on both this intravenous preparation and coumarin or coumarin derivatives.

Contraindications

  • Hypersensitivity to egg-, soya- or peanut protein or to any of the active substances or excipients. Severe hyperlipaemia
  • Severe liver insufficiency
  • Severe blood coagulation disorders
  • Inborn errors of amino acid metabolism
  • Severe renal insufficiency without access to haemofiltration or dialysis
  • Acute shock
  • Hyperglycemia, which requires more than 6 units insulin/h
  • Pathologically elevated serum levels of any of the included electrolytes.
  • General contra-indications to infusion therapy acute pulmonary oedema, hyper hydration and decompensated cardiac insufficiency and hypotonic dehydration
  • Haemophagocytotic syndrome
  • Unstable conditions (e.g. severe post-traumatic conditions, uncompensated diabetes, acute myocardial infarction, metabolic acidosis, severe sepsis and hyperosmolar coma)
  • Infants under 2 years of age

Side Effects

The infusion may cause a rise in body temperature (incidence <3%) and, less frequently, shivering, chills and nausea/vomiting (incidence<1 %). Transient increases in liver enzymes during intravenous nutrition have also been reported. Reports of other undesirable effects in conjunction with the included components are extremely rare. Hypersensitivity reactions (anaphylactic reaction, skin rash, urticaria), respiratory symptoms (e.g. tachypnoea) and hyper/hypotension have been described. Haernolvsis. reticulocytosis, abdominal pain, headache, nausea, vomiting, tiredness and priapism have been reported.

Precautions & Warnings

The ability to eliminate fat should be monitored. It is recommended that this is done by measuring serum triglycerides after a fat-free period of 5-6 hours. The serum concentration of triglycerides should not exceed 3 mmol/l during infusion. The bag size, especially the volume and the quantitative composition, should be carefully chosen. These volumes should be adjusted according to the hydration and nutritional status of the children. One reconstituted bag is for single use. Disturbances of the electrolyte and fluid balance (e g. abnormally high or low serum levels of the electrolytes) should be corrected before starting the infusion.

Special clinical monitoring is required at the beginning of any intravenous infusion. Should any abnormal sign occur, the infusion must be stopped. Since an increased risk of infection is associated with the use of any central vein, strict aseptic precautions should be taken to avoid any contamination during catheter insertion and manipulation.

This solution should be given with caution in conditions of impaired lipid metabolism due to renal insufficiency, uncompensated diabetes mellitus, pancreatitis, impaired liver function, hypothyroidism (with hypertriglyceridemia or sepsis. If this solution is given to patients with these conditions, close monitoring of serum triglyceride concentrations is mandatory.

Overdose Effects

Nausea, vomiting and sweating have been observed during infusion of amino acids at rates exceeding the recommended maximum rate. An impaired capacity to eliminate fat may lead to the fat overload syndrome as a result of overdosage, but also at recommended rates of infusion in association with a sudden change in the patient's clinical condition, such as renal function impairment or infection. The fat overload syndrome is characterised by hyperlipaemia, fever, fat infiltration, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, anaemia, leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, blood coagulation disorders and coma. These changes are invariably reversible on discontinuation of the fat infusion If symptoms of overdose occur, the infusion should be slowed down or discontinued. In some rare serious cases, hemodialysis. haemofiltration or haemo-diafiltration may be necessary.
