ABSTRACT
Introduction. Associated factors with complications of the
parenteral nutrition (PN) in the preterm infant have not
been well studied and there are some controversies in the
literature.
Objective. To identify associated factors with
complications of the use of PN in preterm patients
Neonatalogy Service.
Material and methods. We performed
a longitudinal, observational, retrospective, comparative
study (case-control) from January 2008 to December 2010, of
the infants who received PN support covering the inclusion
criteria (newborns 28 to 36 weeks gestational age from 0 to
28 days after birth, who received PN for at least 6 days). We
excluded patients with cholestasis by anatomic obstruction
hepatobiliary tract, metabolic disease or congenital
metabolic syndrome (inborn errors of metabolism).
Statistical analysis was done using descriptive statistics and
inferential. The associated factors were investigated through
the OR (odds ratio) and multivariate analysis. Significance
levels were set at p ‹ 0.05.
Results. The total number of
patients studied was 67, which is divided into two groups:
group A (n = 35) preterm infants with complications
secondary to treatment with PN and group B (n = 32),
preterm no complications from the procedure. Of all patients
in group A, cases, 13 (37%) had mechanical complications;
14 (40%) patients, infectious related with PN or venous
catheter (administration via) and 32 (91.4%) patients with
metabolic complications as disorders of glucose homeostasis
and hyperglycemia predominated (20 patients in group A
which corresponds to 57%). In multivariate analysis revealed
as protective factors in the use of average protein ‹ 3 g/kg/
day in the first week, osmolarity of the mixture average ‹
1,200 mOsm/L and relationship non-nitrogenous calories:
protein nitrogen › 140:1.
Conclusions. While there are
already installed factors that can not be modified, such as
prematurity and low birth weight start nutritional therapy,
an adequate proportion of nutrients and osmolality of the
mixture can reduce the presence of complications associated
with PN.
