Abstract
Infusions of home parenteral nutrition (HPN) are often cycled at night coinciding with sleep episodes. Adult consumers of HPN are known to experience poor sleep attributed to frequent awakenings and long durations of wakefulness after falling asleep. Consequently, most consumers do not meet recommendations for sleep duration and quality or daytime napping. The primary underlying pathophysiology resulting in sleep problems is nocturia; however, other factors also exist, including disruptions caused by medical equipment (ie, pump alarms), comorbid conditions, dysglycemia, and medication use. Early guidance on sleep is imperative because of the central role of sleep in physical health and wellbeing, including mitigating complications, such as infection risk, gastrointestinal problems, pain sensitivity, and fatigue. Clinicians should routinely inquire about the sleep of their patients and address factors known to perturb sleep. Nonpharmacologic opportunities to mitigate sleep problems include education on healthy sleep practices (ie, sleep hygiene); changes in infusion schedules, volumes, rates, and equipment; and, possibly, behavioral interventions, which have yet to be examined in this population. Addressing comorbid conditions, such as mood disorders, and nutrition deficiencies may also help. Pharmacologic interventions and technological advancement in HPN delivery are also needed. Research on sleep in this population is considered a priority, yet it remains limited at this time.

Abstract
Outcomes for patients with chronic intestinal failure have improved with organization of experts into multidisciplinary teams delivering care in intestinal rehabilitation programs. There have been improvements in understanding of intestinal failure complications as well as development of newer therapies that have amplified the improvements in survival. In spite of this encouraging trend, patients who fail PN are often referred too late for intestinal transplantation. The author proposes a more rational framework that might allow earlier identification of intestinal failure patients at risk for PN-failure, who could appropriately be considered earlier for intestinal transplantation with improvements in overall outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) are known to experience psychological distress and have profoundly disrupted sleep. The aim of this analysis was to examine the relationship between sleep patterns with depressive symptoms and HPN characteristics. METHODS The study was a secondary analysis of cross-sectional data examining sleep patterns using subjective and objective measures. Sleep was assessed by surveys and 7-day actigraphy. The Patient Health Questionnaire-8 was used to evaluate depressive symptoms. Participants provided information on HPN. Spearman correlations were calculated between sleep measures with depressive symptoms and HPN characteristics. Correlations were further examined in multivariable linear regression models. RESULTS Thirty-two adults (age = 53 years; 75% female; 94% White) were included. Lower sleep quality (r = 0.54-0.60; P < 0.001) and later sleep timing (r = -0.35; P = 0.049) were correlated with higher depressive symptoms. Sleep patterns were also correlated with several HPN characteristics (r = -0.47 to 0.51). In linear regression models, rate of infusion was associated with sleep duration (β = -0.004 [0.002] h; P = 0.046) in which each 100 mL/h was associated with 24-min shorter duration. Higher total energy was associated with lower sleep quality (β = 0.0004 [0.0002] log-unit; P = 0.042), and higher volume was associated with longer sleep onset latency (β = 0.0006 [0.0003] log-min; P = 0.049). CONCLUSIONS We provide evidence supporting the link between poor and later sleep with higher depressive symptoms and identify potentially modifiable infusion characteristics (notably, slower rate of infusion and lower total energy and volume) that, on further verification, may support sleep among those receiving HPN.

Glycemic and sleep effects of daytime compared with those of overnight infusions of home parenteral nutrition in adults with short bowel syndrome: A quasi-experimental pilot trial. Am J Clin Nutr 2024; 119:569-577. [PMID: 38043867 PMCID: PMC10884603 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS) dependent on home parenteral nutrition (HPN) commonly cycle infusions overnight, likely contributing to circadian misalignment and sleep disruption. METHODS The objective of this quasi-experimental, single-arm, controlled, pilot trial was to examine the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of daytime infusions of HPN in adults with SBS without diabetes. Enrolled patients were fitted with a continuous glucose monitor and wrist actigraph and were instructed to cycle their infusions overnight for 1 wk, followed by daytime for another week. The 24-h average blood glucose, the time spent >140 mg/dL or <70 mg/dL, and sleep fragmentation were derived for each week and compared using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Patient-reported quality-of-life outcomes were also compared between the weeks. RESULTS Twenty patients (mean age, 51.7 y; 75% female; mean body mass index, 21.5 kg/m2) completed the trial. Overnight infusions started at 21:00 and daytime infusions at 09:00. No serious adverse events were noted. There were no differences in 24-h glycemia (daytime-median: 93.00 mg/dL; 95% CI: 87.7-99.9 mg/dL, compared with overnight-median: 91.1 mg/dL; 95% CI: 89.6-99.0 mg/dL; P = 0.922). During the day hours (09:00-21:00), the mean glucose concentrations were 13.5 (5.7-22.0) mg/dL higher, and the time spent <70 mg/dL was 15.0 (-170.0, 22.5) min lower with daytime than with overnight HPN. Conversely, during the night hours (21:00-09:00), the glucose concentrations were 16.6 (-23.1, -2.2) mg/dL lower with daytime than with overnight HPN. There were no differences in actigraphy-derived measures of sleep and activity rhythms; however, sleep timing was later, and light at night exposure was lower with daytime than with overnight HPN. Patients reported less sleep disruptions due to urination and fewer episodes of uncontrollable diarrhea or ostomy output with daytime HPN. CONCLUSIONS Daytime HPN was feasible and safe in adults with SBS and, compared with overnight HPN, improved subjective sleep without increasing 24-h glucose concentrations. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04743960 (https://classic. CLINICALTRIALS gov/ct2/show/NCT04743960).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying food safety risks when handling enteral formulations at home is important to restore and maintain the health of patients. Therefore, this study developed and validated a food safety assessment checklist for handling home enteral nutrition (HEN). METHODS This methodological study developed a checklist based on a literature review and interviews with food safety professionals. The content validation, which was conducted by food safety and enteral feeding experts, assessed the relevance, clarity, and simplicity of the checklist using the content validity index of items (CVI-I), categories (CVI-C), and the entire instrument (CVI-EI). Each item was rated as either essential, necessary, or recommended according to the risk in relation to foodborne diseases. RESULTS The Food Safety for Handling Home Enteral Nutrition checklist (FSHEN checklist) that was developed includes 40 items and the following eight categories: physical structure; cleaning of facilities, equipment, furniture, and utensils; pests and waste; water supply; food handlers; ingredients and packaging; handling of enteral formulations; and the bottling and storage of enteral formulations. The CVI-EI was above the recommendation (≥0.93) for the three assessed criteria, as was the CVI-C in terms of clarity (≥0.95), relevance (≥0.98), and simplicity (≥0.84). A total of 52.5% of the items were rated as essential, 32.5% as necessary, and 15% as recommended. CONCLUSION The FSHEN checklist is relevant, clear, and easy to use. It can help health professionals and individuals working in the field to assess and prioritize items to improve food safety in the management of HEN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In 2016, ESPEN published the guideline for Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) in adults. An updated version of ESPEN guidelines on CIF due to benign disease in adults was devised in order to incorporate new evidence since the publication of the previous ESPEN guidelines. METHODS The grading system of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) was used to grade the literature. Recommendations were graded according to the levels of evidence available as A (strong), B (conditional), 0 (weak) and Good practice points (GPP). The recommendations of the 2016 guideline (graded using the GRADE system) which were still valid, because no studies supporting an update were retrieved, were reworded and re-graded accordingly. RESULTS The recommendations of the 2016 guideline were reviewed, particularly focusing on definitions, and new chapters were included to devise recommendations on IF centers, chronic enterocutaneous fistulas, costs of IF, caring for CIF patients during pregnancy, transition of patients from pediatric to adult centers. The new guideline consist of 149 recommendations and 16 statements which were voted for consensus by ESPEN members, online in July 2022 and at conference during the annual Congress in September 2022. The Grade of recommendation is GPP for 96 (64.4%) of the recommendations, 0 for 29 (19.5%), B for 19 (12.7%), and A for only five (3.4%). The grade of consensus is "strong consensus" for 148 (99.3%) and "consensus" for one (0.7%) recommendation. The grade of consensus for the statements is "strong consensus" for 14 (87.5%) and "consensus" for two (12.5%). CONCLUSIONS It is confirmed that CIF management requires complex technologies, multidisciplinary and multiprofessional activity, and expertise to care for the underlying gastrointestinal disease and to provide HPN support. Most of the recommendations were graded as GPP, but almost all received a strong consensus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is a specialised therapy offered to people suffering from intestinal failure. Underlying disease, HPN complications and limitations of HPN can significantly impact a person's quality-of-life (QOL). The aim of this review was to evaluate the evidence on existing non-surgical/non-pharmacological interventions aimed at improving QOL, clinical, patient-reported and economic outcomes for patients receiving parenteral nutrition therapy at home across adult and paediatric settings. METHODS Online databases Medline (Ovid), Embase and Cinahl were searched to identify studies published between 1937 and 31 March 2022. Identified studies were appraised using the Cochrane Collaboration risk of bias tool and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) assessment. RESULTS Nine studies were included in this review. Interventions were focused on education (n = 4), telemedicine (n = 2), preparation of infusion mixtures (n = 1), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (n = 1) and a multi-modal approach (n = 1). Only one study measured QOL before and after the intervention using a validated QOL tool. All studies were assessed at either some, high or critical risk of bias, resulting in low or very low-quality evidence for the interventions evaluated. CONCLUSIONS The findings from this review highlight the lack of high-quality non-surgical/non-pharmacological studies seeking to improve QOL for people on HPN. Because the majority of people receiving HPN are not eligible for surgical or pharmaceutical treatments, higher quality research using clinical trial design, and research focused on improving QOL is needed to inform healthcare managers about the effectiveness (and value) of alternative service delivery models for this vulnerable patient group.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare disorder with known physical, psychosocial, and economic burdens and significant morbidity and mortality. Many individuals with SBS require long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN). The incidence and prevalence of SBS is difficult to determine because it is often based on HPN usage and may not account for those who receive intravenous fluids or achieve enteral autonomy. The most common etiologies associated with SBS are Crohn's disease and mesenteric ischemia. Intestinal anatomy and remnant bowel length are prognostic for HPN dependency, and enteral autonomy confers a survival advantage. Health economic data confirm that PN-related costs are higher for hospitalizations than at home; yet significant healthcare resource utilization is necessary for successful HPN, and patients and families report substantial financial distress that impacts quality of life (QOL). An important advancement in QOL measurement is the validation of HPN- and SBS-specific QOL questionnaires. In addition to the known factors negatively impacting QOL, such as diarrhea, pain, nocturia, fatigue, depression, and narcotic dependency, research has shown that the volume and number of PN infusions per week is associated with QOL. Although traditional QOL measurements describe how underlying disease and therapy influence life, they do not assess how symptoms and functional limitations affect the QOL of patients and caregivers. Patient-centered measures and conversation focused on psychosocial issues helps patients with SBS and HPN dependency better cope with their disease and treatment. This article presents a brief overview of SBS, including epidemiology, survival, costs, and QOL.

Abstract
Patient- and family centered care (PFCC) is a model of providing healthcare that incorporates the preferences, needs, and values of the patient and their family and is built on a solid partnership between the healthcare team and patient/family. This partnership is critical in short bowel syndrome (SBS) management since the condition is rare, chronic, involves a heterogenous population, and calls for a personalized approach to care. Institutions can facilitate the practice of PFCC by supporting a teamwork approach to care, which, in the case of SBS, ideally involves a comprehensive intestinal rehabilitation program consisting of qualified healthcare practitioners who are supported with the necessary resources and budget. Clinicians can engage in a range of processes to center patients and families in the management of SBS, including fostering whole-person care, building partnerships with patients and families, cultivating communication, and providing information effectively. Empowering patients to self-manage important aspects of their condition is an important component of PFCC and can enhance coping to chronic disease. Therapy nonadherence represents a breakdown in the PFCC approach to care, especially when nonadherence is sustained, and the healthcare provider is intentionally misled. An individualized approach to care that incorporates patient/family priorities should ultimately enhance therapy adherence. Lastly, patients/families should play a central role in determining meaningful outcomes as it relates to PFCC and shaping the research that affects them. This review highlights needs and priorities of patients with SBS and their families and suggests ways to address gaps in existing care to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Home parenteral support (HPS) is an essential but potentially burdensome treatment that can affect quality of life (QoL). The aims of this longitudinal study were to understand whether any changes in HPS over time were associated with QoL. The Parenteral Nutrition Impact Questionnaire (PNIQ) was used, and data were collected on HPS prescribed at three time points. Data were analysed using multi-level mixed regression models presented as effect size and were adjusted for confounders. Study recruited 572 participants from 15 sites. Of these, 201 and 145 completed surveys at second and third time-points, respectively. PNIQ score was out of 20 with a higher score indicating poorer QoL. Any reduction in HPS infusions per week was associated with an improved PNIQ score of -1.10 (95% CI -2.17, -0.02) unadjusted and -1.34 (95% CI -2.45, -0.24) adjusted. Per day change to the number of infusions per week was associated with a change in the PNIQ score of 0.32 (95% CI -0.15, 0.80) unadjusted and 0.34 (95% CI -0.17, 0.85) adjusted. This is the largest national study to demonstrate improvements in QoL associated with HPS reduction over time using an HPS-specific and patient-centric tool, adding unique data for use of therapies in intestinal failure.

Dashti HS, Godbole M, Chen A, Mogensen KM, Leong A, Burns DL, Winkler MF, Saxena R, Compher C. Sleep patterns of patients receiving home parenteral nutrition: A home-based observational study. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2022; 46:1699-1708. [PMID: 35147236 PMCID: PMC9365885 DOI: 10.1002/jpen.2346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2021] [Revised: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients supported with home parenteral nutrition (HPN) often report poor sleep; however, limited research has been conducted to objectively measure sleep patterns of HPN-dependent patients. METHODS We aimed to characterize the sleep patterns of patients receiving HPN through 7-day actigraphy in a home-based observational study. Sleep measures of clinical importance were derived from actigraphy, including sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep onset latency, and wake after sleep onset. Participants also completed validated sleep surveys. RESULTS Twenty participants completed all study procedures (mean [SD]: age = 51.6 [13.9] years, body mass index = 21.4 [4.6], and 80% female). The population median (IQR) for sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep onset latency, and wake after sleep onset was 6.9 (1.1) h, 83.3% (7.8%), 11.8 (7.1) min, and 57.2 (39.9) min, respectively, and 55%, 60%, 35%, and 100% of participants did not meet the recommendations for these measures from the National Sleep Foundation. Sixty-five percent of participants reported napping at least once during the 7-day period. Based on the Insomnia Severity Index, 70% of participants were classified as having subthreshold or more severe insomnia. Based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, 85% were classified as having significant sleep disturbance. CONCLUSION Most HPN-dependent patients likely have disrupted sleep largely driven by difficulty maintaining sleep. The extent to which HPN contributed to poor sleep cannot be elucidated from this observational study. Addressing known factors that contribute to sleep disruption and considering sleep interventions may improve the overall quality of life of patients receiving HPN.

Abstract
Qualitative research is a scientific method that systematically examines a phenomenon with the purpose of understanding and describing human experiences, exploring meanings and patterns, and illuminating the patient's lived experience. The Rhoads Research Lecture will highlight the power of patient voice and its importance to clinicians and researchers in addressing key clinical needs that are most relevant to patients receiving nutrition support. The subjective experience of patients who are dependent on home parenteral nutrition (HPN) will be shared, including how patients view HPN, define their quality of life (QOL), and describe the meaning of food in the context of being intravenously fed. As a result of these exploratory studies, the HPN patient-reported outcome questionnaire (HPN-PROQ) was developed and validated. Incorporating the HPN-PROQ in practice empowers patients to identify and communicate QOL and HPN therapy goals and clinicians to delve deeper in the provision of holistic and empathetic care.

Abstract
Quality of life (QoL) assessment is important to evaluate the effect of the intervention for patients treated with home parenteral and enteral nutrition (HPEN). The purpose of this scoping review is to describe, evaluate, and recommend QoL instruments used in adult patients receiving HPEN. We used the Arksey and O'Malley framework and performed literature searches in five databases (PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) to identify possibly relevant articles that focused on QoL of adult patients receiving HPEN. Of the studies that qualify for full-text screening, two independent researchers extracted data. Twenty-seven QoL instruments were identified, consisting of seven generic instruments, 12 disease-specific instruments, and eight therapy-specific instruments. The Short Form-36 was the most widely used generic instrument and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30 was the most commonly employed disease-specific instrument. The recently developed therapy-specific tools, NutriQoL and HPN-QoL, were increasingly employed in studies either alone or in combination with other types of instruments. Important aspects of each instrument were summarized to aid clinicians and researchers in selecting an appropriate instrument when measuring the QoL of adult HPEN patients. Findings could also help to identify the necessity to develop new tools or to modify pre-existing ones to measure QoL of HPEN patients.

Abstract
Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) may be needed as a long-term therapy for patients with chronic intestinal failure whose clinical condition does not allow complete weaning of the PN solution. HPN is a time-consuming and clinically complex therapy and can negatively affect quality of life (QOL). The level of dependency on HPN, specifically, infusion frequency has been proposed as a factor that may have an effect on QOL in patients receiving HPN. The primary aim of this qualitative review is to identify the impact of HPN frequency (days per week of HPN infusion) on QOL measurements in adult patients receiving HPN. A comprehensive literature search was completed in PubMed and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) databases. Primary clinical research studies were included if they were conducted in adult patients receiving HPN and included the assessment of the associations between the frequency of HPN infusion and QOL measurements. Six articles ultimately met the criteria for this review. There was variability among the studies, including use of different tools to measure QOL. However, all six studies suggest that a reduction in HPN frequency may be associated with an improvement in QOL. Whenever patients' clinical situation allows, a reduction in HPN frequency should be considered to improve QOL in patients receiving HPN. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to altered nutrition regimens and complex medical needs, pediatric intestinal failure (IF) may have a powerful impact on health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Studies have shown that children with IF experience lower HRQOL. Data on the HRQOL of families of children with IF are lacking. METHODS We performed a prospective analysis of the HRQOL of families of children with IF in a regional intestinal rehabilitation program from 2011 to 2018. The Pediatric Quality of Life Family Impact Module (FIM) was administered annually to parents. FIM scores were regressed on risk factors using linear mixed-effect models that accounted for repeated surveys within families. RESULTS A total of 117 families completed 272 surveys. FIM scores increased with patient age across nearly all survey dimensions. Total FIM scores were lower when compared to families of healthy children (median differences = -5, P = .01) and similar to families of chronically ill children. While IF families reported major deficits in the Communication (-11, P < .001) and Worry (-17, P < .001) dimensions, they also reported higher Family Relationship scores (+7, P < .01). On multivariable regression, presence of a major comorbidity and four or more hospital admissions in the prior year were associated with lower family HRQOL (P < .05). Parenteral nutrition dependence was independently associated with lower scores in the Communication (-7, P = .03) and Daily Activities (-10, P = .02) dimensions. CONCLUSION Families of children with IF experience a decreased HRQOL that may improve with patient age. Intestinal rehabilitation programs should address the HRQOL of families in addition to patients.
