3 OBJECTIVES Recognize indications for total parenteral nutrition (TPN) in the pediatric patient population Review the pathophysiology of parenteral nutrition associated liver disease (PNALD) Describe the components of three lipid emulsions used at Children s of Alabama (COA) Evaluate the safety, efficacy and cost of the above lipid emulsions in COA Intestinal Rehabilitation Clinic and inpatient gastroenterology patients

4 BACKGROUND Short bowel syndrome (SBS) occurs due to loss of an extensive length of small intestine resulting in inadequate absorption of enteral nutrients Causes include necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), intestinal atresia, gastroschisis, malrotation with volvulus, meconium ileus, and Hirschsprung s disease SBS is the most frequent mechanism of intestinal failure (IF) Patients often become TPN dependent and at risk for PNALD and central line associated blood stream infections (CLABSIs) Spencer AU, Neaga A, West B, Safran J, Brown P, Btaiche I, Kuzma O'Reilly B, Teitelbaum DH.

5 PNALD Defined as a spectrum of liver disease ranging from abnormal liver enzymes to steatosis, fibrosis, and eventual cirrhosis Multifactorial causes including prolonged bowel rest leading to bacterial overgrowth, choline/taurine deficiency, and increased dextrose in TPN Treatment includes avoiding TPN if possible, or incorporating fish oil based lipid emulsion Patients with intestinal and liver failure may require intestine liver transplant Mitra A, Ahn J.

10 STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine the role of Omegaven by assessing the safety, efficacy, and cost in patients transitioned from Intralipid 20% to Omegaven to SMOFlipid compared to patients transitioned from Intralipid 20% to SMOFlipid

11 STUDY METHODS AND DESIGN Retrospective chart review from August 2013 through January patient groups evaluated (N=19) Omegaven group (n=12): Intralipid 20% Omegaven SMOFlipid Control group (n=7): Intralipid 20% SMOFlipid

12 STUDY METHODS AND DESIGN Inclusion Criteria Age 0 18 years Long term TPN Followed in COA Intestinal Rehabilitation Clinic or by gastroenterology inpatient service if still admitted (e.g neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) patients) Exclusion Criteria No Intralipid 20% exposure Deceased

13 STUDY METHODS AND DESIGN Laboratory parameters assessed at the start of each lipid emulsion Incidence of CLABSIs and cost collected for duration of each lipid emulsion Safety Efficacy Cost Direct bilirubin (DBili) Aspartate transaminase (AST) Alanine transaminase (ALT) Triglycerides (TG) Serum creatinine (SCr) Number of CLABSIs Height and weight Z scores CDC calculator 0 24 months Correcting for prematurity until 2 years of age WHO calculator for age 2 18 years Intralipid 20% and SMOFlipid covered by patients insurances Inpatient and outpatient Omegaven = direct cost to COA through compassionate use study

14 STUDY METHODS AND DESIGN Statistical analysis: t test for equality of means Three analyses performed: Intralipid 20% initiation SMOFlipid initiation SMOFlipid data collection stop date

18 CLABSI FINDINGS Total Number of CLABSIs (n) Omegaven Group (n=12) Total Number of Patients with CLABSIs Total Number of Days on Each Lipid CLABSI Rate (n per 1000 catheter days) Intralipid 20% Omegaven SMOFlipid Total Number of CLABSIs (n) Control Group (n=7) Total Number of Patients with CLABSIs Total Number of Days on Each Lipid CLABSI Rate (n per 1000 catheter days) Intralipid 20% SMOFlipid

19 COST FINDINGS Omegaven Group (n=12) Mean Cost per Day Mean Cost per Patient Total Cost Intralipid 20% $10.39 $1, $15, Omegaven $78.72 $56, $673, SMOFlipid $17.74 $2, $33, Control Group (n=7) Mean Cost per Day Mean Cost per Patient Total Cost Intralipid 20% $10.29 $ $2, SMOFlipid $16.44 $ $13,002.08

20 LIMITATIONS Small sample size Missing laboratory parameters for some patients Omegaven group patients older than control group patients Difficult to evaluate long term effects of SMOFlipid

21 CONCLUSIONS Omegaven associated with large number of CLABSIs, but similar rate as SMOFlipid At initiation of SMOFlipid the Omegaven group had a statistically significant difference in DBili compared to control group No statistically significant differences in laboratory parameters at SMOFlipid stop date

22 FUTURE DIRECTIONS Reserve Omegaven for patients requiring rescue therapy to provide cost savings to hospital Assess long term effects of SMOFlipid by continuing to collect laboratory findings and CLABSI rates periodically Compare inpatient versus outpatient therapy Potentially remove Intralipid 20% from COA formulary to reduce dispensing error mix ups with SMOFlipid

26 OMEGAVEN CRITERIA Inclusion Criteria Newborn to 21 years of age PN dependent (physically unable to maintain adequate nutrition enterally) Has been receiving PN for >30 days Lipid dose has been restricted to 1 g/kg/day for >30 days Trace elements (copper, manganese, chromium, zinc) reduced by half for >30 days Expectation of PN for >30 more days Direct bilirubin >2.0 mg/dl on >2 consecutive draws and >1 week apart, after being on PN with restricted lipids and trace elements for >30 days Hospitalized at time of enrollment and/or initial dose of Omegaven Exclusion Criteria Pregnancy Other causes of liver disease such as Hepatitis C, Cystic Fibrosis, biliary atresia, ECMO induced cholestasis Parent, guardian, and/or child unwilling to provide consent or assent Allergy to fish or egg protein Chronic anticoagulant therapy Severe hemorrhagic disorder

27 SMOFLIPID CRITERIA Indications Anticipated long term need for PN (>2 weeks) Signs of cholestasis after using soy lipids >2 weeks Transition from Omegaven following period of normalization of TPN induced cholestasis (Dbili <2 mg/dl) Unable to use Omegaven (e.g. clot, prothrombotic state, availability issues) Contraindications Presence of renal disease (SCr >upper limit of normal for age) Hypersensitivity to fish, egg, soybean or peanut protein Severe hypertriglyceridemia (TG>500 mg/ml) Elevated serum aluminum (>6 ng/ml) Warning: SMOFlipid interacts with warfarin, decreasing effects of anticoagulation. Dosing and clinical effects should be monitored accordingly in these patients.
