McGrath KH, Collins T, Comerford A, McCallum Z, Comito M, Herbison K, Cochrane OR, Burgess DM, Kane S, Coster K, Cooper M, Jesson K. A clinical consensus paper on jejunal tube feeding in children. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2024; 48:337-344. [PMID: 38430136 DOI: 10.1002/jpen.2615] [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: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Feeding problems are common in children with complex medical problems or acute critical illness and enteral nutrition may be required. In certain situations, gastric tube feeding is poorly tolerated or may not be feasible. When feed intolerance persists despite appropriate adjustments to oral and gastric enteral regimens, jejunal tube feeding can be considered as an option for nutrition support. METHODS A multidisciplinary expert working group of the Australasian Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition was convened. They identified topic questions and five key areas of jejunal tube feeding in children. Literatures searches were undertaken on Pubmed, Embase, and Medline for all relevant studies, between January 2000 and September 2022 (n = 103). Studies were assessed using National Health and Medical Research Council guidelines to generate statements, which were discussed as a group, followed by voting on statements using a modified Delphi process to determine consensus. RESULTS A total of 24 consensus statements were created for five key areas: patient selection, type and selection of feeding tube, complications, clinical use of jejunal tubes, follow-up, and reassessment. CONCLUSION Jejunal tube feeding is a safe and effective means of providing nutrition in a select group of pediatric patients with complex medical needs, who are unable to be fed by gastric tube feeding. Appropriate patient selection is important as complications associated with jejunal tube feeding are not uncommon, and although mostly minor, can be significant or require tube reinsertion. All children receiving jejunal tube feeding should have multidisciplinary team assessment and follow-up.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the association of transpyloric feeding (TPF) with the composite outcome of tracheostomy or death for patients with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (sBPD). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective multi-center cohort study of preterm infants <32 weeks with sBPD receiving enteral feedings. We compared infants who received TPF at 36, 44, or 50 weeks post-menstrual age to those who did not receive TPF at any of those timepoints. Odds ratios were adjusted for gestational age, small for gestational age, male sex, and invasive ventilation and FiO2 at 36 weeks. RESULTS Among 1039 patients, 129 (12%) received TPF. TPF was associated with an increased odds of tracheostomy or death (aOR 3.5, 95% CI 2.0-6.1) and prolonged length of stay or death (aOR 3.1, 95% CI 1.9-5.2). CONCLUSIONS Use of TPF in sBPD after 36 weeks was infrequent and associated with worse in-hospital outcomes, even after adjusting for respiratory severity at 36 weeks.

Abstract
Premature births account for over 10% of live births worldwide. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) represents a severe sequela in neonates born very prematurely and remains the most common chronic neonatal lung disease, often leading to serious adverse consequences in adulthood. Nutrition plays a crucial role in lung development and repair. Ongoing research has primarily focused on the pathogenesis and prevention of BPD in preterm birth. However, infants with established BPD need specialist medical care that persists throughout their hospitalization and continues after discharge. This manuscript aims to highlight the impact of growth and nutrition on BPD and highlight research gaps to provide direction for future studies. Protective practices include ensuring adequate early energy delivery through parenteral nutrition and enteral feedings while carefully monitoring total fluid intake and the use of breast milk over formula. These nutritional strategies remain the same for infants with established BPD with the addition of limiting the use of diuretics and steroids; but if employed, monitoring carefully without compromising total energy delivery. Functional nutrient supplements with a potential protective role against BPD are revisited, despite the limited evidence of their efficacy, including vitamins, trace elements, zinc, lipids, and sphingolipids. Planning post-intensive care and outpatient longitudinal nutrition support is critical in caring for an infant with established BPD.

Intraoperative Transpyloric Tube Insertion for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Analysis of Japanese Study Group Data. J Pediatr Surg 2023; 58:1663-1669. [PMID: 37032194 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2023.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a severe congenital disease. Some CDH infants suffer from gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), even after surgical correction of gastric position. A transpyloric tube (TPT) is inserted into CDH patients under direct observation intraoperatively in some hospitals in Japan to establish early enteral feeding. This strategy avoids gastric expansion to maintain a better respiratory condition. However, it is unclear whether the strategy has a secure effect for patient prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative TPT insertion on enteral feeding and postoperative weight gain. METHODS The Japanese CDH Study Group database was used to identify infants with CDH born between 2011 and 2016, who were then divided into two groups: the TPT group and gastric tube (GT) group. In the TPT group, infants underwent intraoperative TPT insertion; postoperative insertion/extraction of TPT was irrelevant to the analysis. Weight growth velocity (WGV) was calculated using the exponential model. Subgroup analysis was performed using Kitano's gastric position classification. RESULTS We analyzed 204 infants, of which 99 and 105 were in the TPT and GT groups, respectively. Enteral nutrition (EN) in the TPT and GT groups was 52 ± 39 and 44 ± 41 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.17) at age 14 days (EN14), respectively, and 83 ± 40 and 78 ± 45 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.46) at age 21 days (EN21), respectively. WGV30 (WGV from day 0 to day 30) in the TPT and GT groups was 2.3 ± 3.0 and 2.8 ± 3.8 g/kg/day (p = 0.30), respectively, and WGV60 (WGV from day 0 to day 60) was 5.1 ± 2.3 and 6.0 ± 2.5 g/kg/day (p = 0.03), respectively. In infants with Kitano's Grade 2 + 3, EN14 in the TPT and GT groups was 38 ± 35 and 29 ± 35 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.24), respectively, EN21 was 73 ± 40 and 58 ± 45 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.13), respectively, WGV30 was 2.3 ± 3.2 and 2.0 ± 4.3 g/kg/day (p = 0.76), respectively, and WGV60 was 4.6 ± 2.3 and 5.2 ± 2.3 g/kg/day (p = 0.30), respectively. CONCLUSION Intraoperative TPT insertion did not improve nutritional intake and WGV30. WGV60 in TPT was less than that in GT. In Grade 2 + 3 subgroup analysis, TPT also had no advantage. We could not recommend routine TPT insertion at surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the impact of transpyloric (TP) feed initiation on short-term oxygenation and manual oxygen blender titration among extremely low birth weight infants. STUDY DESIGN This retrospective study evaluated several measures of oxygenation among extremely low birth weight infants receiving positive pressure respiratory support for 96 hours before and after TP tube placement in a single neonatal intensive care unit during the years 2017- 2020. The measures included the achieved oxygen saturation (SpO2), the baseline fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), the SpO2/FiO2 ratio, the number and severity of hypoxemic episodes and the frequency of manual oxygen titrations (titration index) and were analyzed using an interrupted time series regression approach. RESULTS A total of 56 infants were evaluated. No significant differences were observed in any oxygenation measures during TP vs gastric feeding among 14 intubated infants. However, among 42 nonintubated patients, significant improvements were observed in the median SpO2/FiO2 ratios (P = .001), median titration index (P = .05), median number of hypoxemic episodes (P = .02), and median severity of hypoxemic episodes (P = .008) after TP tube placement. CONCLUSIONS The transition from gastric to TP tube feeding was temporally associated with acute improvement in oxygenation for nonintubated infants, but not for intubated infants.

Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has evolved considerably since its first description over 50 years ago. This review aims to provide a historical framework for conceptualizing BPD and a current understanding of the changing definition, epidemiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and outcomes of BPD. The transdisciplinary approach that led to the initial phenotypic description of BPD continues to hold promise today. Investigators are refining the definition of BPD in light of changes in clinical care and increasing survival rates of very preterm infants. Despite improvements in perinatal care the incidence of BPD continues to increase. There is growing recognition that antenatal risk factors play a key role in the development of BPD. Strategies designed to prevent or limit neonatal lung injury continue to evolve. Defining the phenotype of infants with BPD can meaningfully direct treatment. Infants with BPD benefit from an interdisciplinary approach to longitudinal care with a focus on growth and neurocognitive development. While the ultimate impact of BPD on long-term pulmonary morbidity remains an active area of investigation, current data indicate that most children and adolescents with a history of BPD have a quality of life comparable to that of other preterm infants.

Abstract
Inadequate nutrition supply in the early stage after birth is a risk factor for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants, and it is also closely associated with the progression and clinical outcome of BPD. Optimized nutritional support is of great importance to reduce the incidence and severity of BPD and promote lung development and neurological prognosis. Based on the relevant studies in China and overseas, the expert consensus on BPD nutrition management is developed by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) method. The consensus includes the following seven aspects: the importance of nutrition in BPD, fluid intake, energy intake, enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition, post-discharge nutrition, and nutrition monitoring and evaluation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) has proved to safely improve morbidity in extreme preterms with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Its effect regarding intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) remains controversial between most recent systematic reviews. We aimed to evaluate its effect over incidence of severe IVH in this population. STUDY DESIGN We compared the incidence of IVH in a prospective cohort of consecutively born preterm infants <34 weeks' gestation receiving LISA (n = 108) with a historical cohort receiving surfactant delivery via tracheal tube and managed with mechanical ventilation (n = 100). RESULTS No significant differences regarding perinatal characteristics were observed between both groups. There was a significant reduction in the incidence of severe IVH in LISA group as compared with the historical group [OR = 0.054 (95% CI 0.01-0.2) p = 0.000. NNT 5]. In addition, a significant trend towards decreased mortality was also observed in the study group [OR = 0.2 (95% CI 0.04-0.9) p = 0.027, NNT 9]. Intervention group infants also showed lower oxygenation requirements during the first 72 h post surfactant administration and a reduced incidence of pneumothorax. They were less frequently intubated [31 infants (28.4%) vs. 100 [100%]; P < 0.001] and required fewer days of mechanical ventilation. However, no significant difference in bronchopulmonary dysplasia incidence was observed between both groups. CONCLUSIONS LISA approach effectively reduces severe IVH in very low and low birth weight (BW) preterms with RDS. In addition we observe a significant trend towards reduction in both need and duration of MV support, air leak, and overall mortality in the intervention group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Compare rates of hypoxaemia during transpyloric and gastric feedings in very preterm infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. DESIGN N-of-1 multiple crossover trials with individual patient and pooled data analyses. SETTING Level IV intensive care nursery. PATIENTS Infants receiving positive airway pressure between 36 and 55 weeks postmenstrual age were enrolled between December 2014-July 2016. INTERVENTION N-of-1 trial consisting of two blocks, each with a 4-day gastric and 4-day transpyloric feeding period assigned in random order. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the frequency of daily intermittent hypoxaemic events (SpO2 ≤80% lasting 10-180 s). Secondary outcomes included the daily proportion of time with an SpO2 ≤80% and mean daily fraction of inspired oxygen. RESULTS Of 15 infants, 13 completed the trial and 2 stopped early for transient worsening in respiratory status during gastric feedings. In the intention-to-treat analyses, transpyloric feedings resulted in increased rates of intermittent hypoxaemia in five infants, greater time per day in hypoxaemia in three infants and more supplemental oxygen use in three infants. One infant received more supplemental oxygen during gastric feedings. The remaining study outcomes were similar between the feeding routes in all other infants. Pooling all data, transpyloric feedings resulted in a higher frequency of intermittent hypoxaemic events (median 7.5/day (IQR 1-23.5) vs 3/day (1-11); adjusted incidence rate ratio 1.8, 95% CI 1.3 to 2.5) and a greater proportion of daily hypoxaemia time (median 0.8% (IQR 0.1-2.3) vs 0.4% (0.07-1.8); adjusted mean difference 1.6, 95% CI 1.1 to 2.5). CONCLUSIONS Transpyloric compared with gastric feedings modestly increased rates of hypoxaemia among study participants. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT02142621.
