Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) can be treated with parenteral fish oil (FO) monotherapy, but practitioners have raised concerns about a potential bleeding risk. This study aims to describe the incidence of clinically significant post-procedural bleeding (CSPPB) in children receiving FO monotherapy.
A retrospective chart review was performed on patients at our institution treated with intravenous FO for IFALD. CSPPB was defined as bleeding leading to re-operation, transfer to the intensive care unit, re-admission, or death, up to one month after any invasive procedure.
From 244 patients reviewed, 183 underwent ≥1 invasive procedure(s) (n = 732). Five (0.68%, 95% CI 0.22-1.59%) procedures resulted in CSPPB. FO therapy was never interrupted. No deaths due to bleeding occurred.
Findings suggest that FO therapy is safe, with a CSPPB risk no greater than that reported in the general population. O3FA should not be held in preparation for procedures or in the event of bleeding.
肠衰竭相关肝病(IFALD)可用肠外鱼油(FO)单一疗法治疗,但从业者对潜在的出血风险表示担忧。本研究旨在描述接受FO单一疗法的儿童发生具有临床意义的术后出血(CSPPB)的发生率。
对我院接受静脉注射FO治疗IFALD的患者进行回顾性病历审查。CSPPB定义为在任何侵入性操作后长达1个月内导致再次手术、转入重症监护病房、再次入院或死亡的出血。
在审查的244例患者中,183例接受了≥1次侵入性操作(n = 732)。5例(0.68%,95%CI 0.22 - 1.59%)操作导致CSPPB。FO治疗从未中断。未发生因出血导致的死亡。
研究结果表明,FO治疗是安全的,CSPPB风险不高于普通人群报告的风险。在准备进行操作或发生出血时,不应停用ω-3脂肪酸(O3FA)。
