A hypothetical case
Starvin Marvin is a 2 y.o. who presents with
a 2-3 week Hx of fevers, weight loss, pallor,
decreased energy, appetite and activity
PE reveals Wt 13kg , down 1.5 kg, pallor,
petechia,+ HSM
Labs reveal WBC 26 K with 50% blasts,
anemia and thrombocytopenia
Hospital Course
Day 1 - NPO, IVFs, labs, Xrays
Day 2 NPO for BM and LP, as well as Hickman
Day 3- Chemo, picky PO
Day 4-6 - continued poor PO, with emesis
occasionally
Day 7-10 emesis resolves, PO inadequate
Day 12 pancytopenia, sepsis with GNR

Acute Stress
Bacterial Translocation
Disruption of mucosal

Ischemia-reperfusion during
shock risk of ulceration
and permeability
Bacterial translocation
Culture(-), found bacterial
DNA in blood stream
Cytokine amplification
in lymphatics and liver
Bacterial Translocation

WHY ?
Is nutrition such a big deal?
Malnutrition Prevalence
Nutrition Status and Outcomes
Gut Bacterial Translocation
Malnutrition Prevalence
15
to 50 % of hospitalized pediatric
inpatients are malnourished on
presentation (down from 35-65%)
15 to 20 % of critically ill patients
33% patients with congenital heart disease
39% awaiting elective surgery

I wonder if Im
missing out on
some critical
piece of
information
Nutrition Screen
Should
Nutritionally-at-risk
Prealbumin
Transthyretin
albumin
Prealbumin
Fleck, A. Br J Clin Pract, 1988
Prealbumin as a predictor
Prealbumin
Measure
twice weekly
Once 65% of needs met expect levels
to rise 1mg/dl a day
If weekly rise is less than 4mg/dl
check N2 balance and CRP to determine if
cause is nutritional inadequacy or
ongoing SIRS
WHEN?
Should I start?
Enteral Contraindications
Intubation/extubation planned within 4
Hemodynamic instability requiring
escalation in therapy
Intestinal obstruction
Massive UGI bleed
Gut ischemia
Im nervous about this kid
No complications

WHERE?
In the gut do I put the food?

Enteral Pitfalls
Airway management
22/26 PICU pts had feeds held for extubation that only 5 got
Diagnostic procedures
Some ventilated patients fed right up to OR

Trophic Feeds
Rats fed 15% calories enterally had
permeability and bacterial translocation
10 post-op infants fed trophically (21cal/kg/d)
had improved Staph killing vs TPN alone

Parenteral Considerations
Nutritionally-at-risk
functional gut.
Adequate
nutritional status on
admission but non-functioning gut 3-5
days after admission
The major advance in TPN since the
1980s is that it is not used as much
Lipid Phobia?
Lipid requirements
Essential fatty acid (0.5gm/kg/d), Promote
Nitrogen sparing, Increased lipid clearance during
stress
Lipids
