BAD HOMBURG, GERMANY – [February 17, 2020] Fresenius Kabi, a global leader in clinical nutrition, announces that the Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (JPEN) has recently published “Lipids in Parenteral Nutrition: Translating Guidelines into Clinical Practice”.(1) The publication represents the largest set of expert consensus statements to provide guidance on the use of fish oil-containing lipid emulsions in clinical practice.
An international panel of leading experts in clinical nutrition, lipid metabolism, and pharmacology developed a set of 43 consensus recommendations. The recommendations aim to help healthcare professionals to navigate issues around prescription, administration, safety, and monitoring of lipids – from short- to long-term parenteral nutrition, from pediatric to adult patients, from home to hospital care.
Fish oil-containing parenteral nutrition has been shown to have a variety of beneficial effects on key biological functions, including modulation of the immune and inflammatory response. A growing body of evidence suggests that these properties improve clinical outcomes, e.g. infection rates, sepsis rate, length of ICU and hospital stay.(2)
Current guidelines of international clinical societies recommend the use of fish oil-containing lipid emulsions in parenteral nutrition.(3-5) Regarding specific nutrients, only parenteral lipid emulsions with EPA + DHA* are recommended by the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) guideline on clinical nutrition in the intensive care unit.(4)
