Systematic review on management of high-output enterostomy in children: An urgent call for evidence. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2024; 78:188-196. [PMID: 38374570 DOI: 10.1002/jpn3.12043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES/BACKGROUND High-output stoma is one of the most common major morbidities in young children with an enterostomy that could lead to intestinal failure. Management of high-output enterostomy in children is mostly based on personal experience. This systematic review aims to clarify the evidence-based therapeutic approach of high-output enterostomy in children. METHODS A systematic review was performed using Pubmed, Embase (Ovid), and Cochrane Library to identify studies published until March 20, 2023, following the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guideline. The study population comprised children (i.e., age <18 years) with high-output enterostomy (i.e., jejuno-, ileo-, and/or colostomy), regardless of underlying aetiology. Interventions comprised any (non)pharmacological and/or surgical treatment. Interventions were compared with each other, placebos, and/or no interventions. Primary outcome was reduction of enterostomy output. Secondary outcomes were morbidity, mortality, quality of life, associated healthcare costs, and adverse events. RESULTS The literature search identified 4278 original articles of which 366 were screened on full text, revealing that none of the articles met the inclusion criteria. CONCLUSION This first systematic review on management of high-output enterostomy in children revealed that any evidence on the primary and secondary outcomes is lacking. There is an urgent need for evidence on conservative treatment strategies including fluid restrictions, dietary advices, oral rehydration solution, chyme re-infusion, and pharmacological and surgical treatments of high-output enterostomy in children, aiming to reduce the risk for short- and long-term complications. Till more evidence is available, a systematic and multidisciplinary step-up approach is needed. Therefore, a therapeutic work-up is proposed that could guide the care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES As intestinal failure (IF) management improves and long-term survival rate increases, its physiological complications have become more apparent. The development of chronic intestinal inflammation resembling inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in this population has been reported, but the literature describing it in detail is sparse. The present study was designed to characterize children with IF who developed chronic intestinal inflammation and identify the potential predisposing clinical factors. METHODS This retrospective study was based on the electronic medical records of pediatric patients seen at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center between January 2000 and July 2022. Demographic and medical history data were collected and compared between children with IF that developed chronic intestinal inflammation and children with IF that did not develop chronic intestinal inflammation. RESULTS During the follow-up period, 23 children were diagnosed with chronic intestinal inflammation. Of these, 12 (52%) were males, with a median age of 4.5 (3-7) years at diagnosis. Nearly one-third of the patients had gastroschisis (31%), followed by necrotizing enterocolitis (26%), and malrotation and volvulus (21.7%). More children in the chronic intestinal inflammation group lacked an ileocecal valve (ICV) and adjoining distal ileum as compared to the short bowel syndrome (SBS)-IF control group (15 patients, 65% vs 8 patients, 33%). Moreover, more children in the chronic intestinal inflammation group had undergone a prior lengthening procedure than the SBS-IF control group (5 patients, 21.7% vs. 0, respectively). DISCUSSION SBS patients are at risk of relatively early onset chronic intestinal inflammation. The absence of an ICV (and adjoin ileum) and prior lengthening procedures emerge as factors associated with the risk of IBD in these patients.

A nordic multicenter study on contemporary outcomes of pediatric short bowel syndrome in 208 patients. Clin Nutr 2023; 42:1095-1103. [PMID: 37270343 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2023.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/21/2023] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Despite advances in the management of short bowel syndrome related intestinal failure (SBS-IF), large-scale contemporary pediatric studies are scarce. The aim of this multicenter study was to assess key outcomes and clinical prognostic factors in a recent Nordic pediatric SBS-IF population. METHODS Patients with SBS-IF treated during 2010-2019, whose parenteral support (PS) started at age <1 year and continued >60 consecutive days were included and retrospectively reviewed. All six participating centers followed multidisciplinary SBS-IF management. Risk factors for PS dependency, intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD) and mortality were assessed with Cox regression and Kaplan Meier analyses. IFALD was defined with serum liver biochemistry levels. RESULTS Among 208 patients, SBS-IF resulted from NEC in 49%, gastroschisis w/wo atresia in 14%, small bowel atresia in 12%, volvulus in 11%, and other diagnoses in 14%. Median age-adjusted small bowel length was 43% (IQR 21-80%). After median follow up of 4.4 years (IQR 2.5-6.9), enteral autonomy was reached by 76%, none had undergone intestinal transplantation, and overall survival was 96%. Half of deaths (4/8) were caused by septic complications. Although biochemical cholestasis occurred only in 3% at latest follow-up and none of deaths were directly caused by IFALD, elevated liver biochemistry (HR 0.136; P = 0.017) and shorter remaining small bowel (HR 0.941; P = 0.040) predicted mortality. Shorter remaining small bowel and colon, and presence of end-ostomy were the main predictors of PS dependency, but not IFALD. Patients with NEC reached enteral autonomy more efficiently and had decreased incidence of IFALD compared to other etiologies. CONCLUSIONS Although with current multidisciplinary management, prognosis of pediatric SBS is encouraging, septic complications and IFALD still associated with the remaining low mortality rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The intestinal rehabilitation program (IRP) is a comprehensive treatment strategy that employs various approaches implemented by multidisciplinary teams to treat intestinal failure in children. This program has shown promising results, such as reducing complications and improving prognosis and quality of life (QOL). In this review, we discuss the current status of this program and relevant topics. RECENT FINDINGS IRP includes the prevention and treatment of various complications such as intestinal failure associated liver disease, catheter-related bloodstream infection or sepsis, and venous thromboembolism. In addition, treatment strategies such as glucagon-like peptide-2 analogs, surgical interventions, and intestinal transplantation have evolved over time and have contributed to improved outcomes. In addition, the scope and regions for IRP activities have expanded. SUMMARY IRP improves the prognosis and QOL of children with intestinal failure. The development of new drugs, surgical methods, and treatment strategies is expected to improve the current and future status of pediatric patients with intestinal failure. Furthermore, international institutions must collaborate, share knowledge, conduct joint research, and establish patient registries to advance IRP progress.

Abstract
Massive intestinal resection is a regrettably necessary but life-saving intervention for progressive or fulminant necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). However, the resultant short bowel syndrome (SBS) poses its own array of challenges and complications. Within hours of such an abrupt loss of intestinal length, the intestine begins to adapt. Our ability to understand this process of intestinal adaptation has proven critical in our ability to clinically treat the challenging problem of short bowel syndrome. This review first highlights key data relating to intestinal adaptation including structural and functional changes, biochemical regulation, and other factors affecting the magnitude of intestinal adaptation responses. We then focus on intestinal rehabilitation as it relates to strategies to enhance intestinal adaptation while meeting nutritional needs and preventing complications of parenteral nutrition.
