INITIAL NUTRITION PLAN (5/3) Monitor tolerance to PPN (labs & wt gain) Consider placement of central line if to be on long term
PN When medically feasible initiate enteral feeds of EBM Encourage mom to pump q 3 hrs to maintain milk supply Consider oral BM care (0.2 ml q 3 hr swabs) while pt on
vent/NPO May be helpful w/providing antibodies/immune factors Note – Research is w/colostrum not BM which is more concentrated

NUTRITION PROGRESS 5/3 – PPN Started 5/5 – Changed to TPN 5/10 – Initiated PO feeds w/ EBM 10 ml q 3 hrs 5/14 – Up to 48 ml q 3 hrs EBM
Increase feeds by 3 ml to max 58 ml/feed For every 3 ml increase in feeds, decrease TPN by 1 ml Current TPN @ 12 ml/hr

LONG TERM TPN COMPLICATIONS:NEONATAL POPULATION Cholestasis
8 – 50% of ELBW infants show signs after 2 wks of TPN Soybean oil-based lipid solution may be possible cause Fish oil-based lipid emulsion may be better option
Inadequate weight gain <10 g/day after DOL 21 W/caloric intake of >24-26 kcal/oz (>0.85 – 0.92 kcal/ml) May be indication for caloric supplements (Protein modular, MCT oil
& Polycose)
