Quality-of-care standards in adult type 3 intestinal failure caused by benign disease: A European society of clinical nutrition and metabolism (ESPEN) position paper. Clin Nutr ESPEN 2024; 63:696-701. [PMID: 39128704 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2024.08.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2024] [Revised: 08/03/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes related to chronic intestinal failure (CIF) vary significantly within and between countries. While there are extensive European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) guidelines on the delivery of optimal care in CIF, there are no international consensus recommendations on the structure or resources required, nor on the process and appropriate outcome measures for delivering such quality care in CIF. AIM The aim of this position paper is therefore to devise ESPEN-endorsed, internationally agreed quality of care standards, covering the resources, systems and standards that centres should aim for in order to deliver optimal CIF care. METHODS Members of the Home Artificial Nutrition-CIF Special Interest Group of ESPEN proposed an initial set of quality-of-care standards which was submitted to voting amongst clinicians from international CIF centres using a modified Delphi process, with participants rating each proposed statement as 'essential', 'recommended' or 'not required'. Any statement receiving 80% of more 'not required' responses was excluded. RESULTS All 30 proposed standards relating to the structure, 18 relating to the process and 16 to the outcome measures of CIF care were deemed to be essential or recommended in more than 80% of respondents. CONCLUSION This is the first paper to determine and describe internationally-agreed quality of care standards in CIF, which are now aimed at forming the basis for all CIF teams to develop and monitor their service, while also informing policymakers and payers on the infrastructure required for the optimal approach to multi-disciplinary team CIF care delivery. The recording of standardised outcomes should also allow internal and external benchmarking of care delivery within and between CIF centres.

Cheang LY, Chong NCJ, Poh BY, Tan LB, Goh JLR, Lee MS, Tan KCT, Kadir HA, Cheah CCM, Salazar E. Approximately 50% of acute intestinal failure (AIF) patients on short-term parenteral nutrition (PN) have intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) without effect on hospital length of stay and mortality. Clin Nutr ESPEN 2024; 61:140-144. [PMID: 38777425 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2024.03.008] [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: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with intestinal failure (IF) are often dependent on PN for provision of calories and nutrients for survival. Similar to chronic intestinal failure (CIF) patients, those who have AIF are also at risk of IFALD, which is a poorly understood but potentially fatal condition. The local incidence of IFALD amongst AIF patients is not known. OBJECTIVES The primary objective of this study was to determine the incidence of IFALD in AIF patients on short-term PN. Secondary objectives were to analyse patient and PN risk factors of IFALD, and clinical outcomes of length of stay (LOS) and inpatient mortality. DESIGN This was a retrospective cross-sectional cohort study of hospitalised adult patients with AIF prescribed with short-term PN. All adult patients aged 21 years and above who received PN for at least 5 consecutive days and had normal liver function tests (LFTs) at the time of PN initiation were included in this study. RESULTS A total of 171 patients were enrolled in this study, with 77 (45%) having deranged LFTs at the end of PN therapy and categorised under the IFLAD group. The patient cohort was predominantly male (92 [54%]) and had a median age of 68 years (IQR 59-76). Patients with IFALD at the end of PN therapy had higher diabetes prevalence (36% vs 26%, p = 0.2) and were on PN for a longer duration (median [IQR]: 12 [8-17] vs 8 [6-15] days, p = 0.003) than those without IFALD. There were no significant differences in patient and PN characteristics between the IFLAD and non-IFALD group. The multivariable models showed that the IFALD cohort had longer hospital stays (HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.65-1.23) and lower odds of inpatient death (OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.12-4.60), though both findings are not statistically significant (p = 0.5, 0.7). CONCLUSION In this study, IFALD is a common phenomenon in AIF and the incidence was found to be an estimated 50% amongst patients on short-term PN with similar clinical outcomes between the two groups.

Urinary acid-base excretion deciphers high acid load from colonic bicarbonate loss in intestinal failure patients with ileocolonic anastomosis - Guidance for composition of parenteral support. Clin Nutr 2024; 43:1043-1050. [PMID: 38554476 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2024.03.007] [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: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Acid-base disturbances are common in short bowel (SB) patients due to increased intestinal bicarbonate loss. However, the resulting systemic acid load has not been quantified. Base excess is used to monitor metabolic acid-base disturbances but inadequately reflects the acid load. Our aim was to investigate the systemic acid/base load in SB-patients to obtain quantitative estimates to guide the composition of parenteral support. METHODS We calculated total acid load in SB patients by summing 24-h urinary net acid excretion (NAE) and the provision of base equivalents in parenteral support. We then compared differences among anatomical SB-types: jejunostomy (SB-J), jejunocolostomy (SB-JC), and jejunoileostomy (SB-JIC). 47 urine samples from 34 SB patients were analyzed for bicarbonate (HCO3-), ammonium (NH4+), and titratable acid (TA) concentrations. NAE was calculated as (TA + NH4+) - HCO3-. Mixed-effects repeated-measures models were used to statistically examine differences between SB-types and associations with parenteral nutrition and NAE. A healthy cohort served as control. RESULTS In comparison to SB-J, SB-JC patients had a 4.1 mmoL/l lower base excess (95% CI: -6.3 to -1.8) and an 84.5 mmol/day higher total acid load (CI: 41.3 to 127.7). There were no significant differences between SB-JIC and SB-J regarding base excess, NAE, or total acid load. Higher amounts of infused acetate, sodium, and chloride, but not the acetate/chloride ratio, were associated with lower NAE and higher base excess. CONCLUSIONS Due to increased colonic bicarbonate loss, patients with SB-JC have a ∼4.4-fold higher acid load than healthy controls. The ion transport mechanisms mediating this bicarbonate loss from the remaining colon need further experimental investigation. NAE could be a useful tool to adjust base infusion in SB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Intestinal failure [IF] is a recognised complication of Crohn's disease [CD]. The aim of this study was to identify factors predicting the development and recurrence of CD in patients with IF [CD-IF], and their long-term outcomes. METHODS This was a cohort study of adults with CD-IF admitted to a national UK IF reference centre between 2000 and 2021. Patients were followed from discharge with home parenteral nutrition [HPN] until death or February 28, 2021. RESULTS In all, 124 patients were included; 47 [37.9%] changed disease location and 55 [44.4%] changed disease behaviour between CD and CD-IF diagnosis, with increased upper gastrointestinal involvement [4.0% vs 22.6% patients], p <0.001. Following IF diagnosis, 29/124 [23.4%] patients commenced CD prophylactic medical therapy; 18 [62.1%] had a history of stricturing or penetrating small bowel disease; and nine [31.0%] had ileocolonic phenotype brought back into continuity. The cumulative incidence of disease recurrence was 2.4% at 1 year, 16.3% at 5 years and 27.2% at 10 years; colon-in-continuity and prophylactic treatment were associated with an increased likelihood of disease recurrence. Catheter-related bloodstream infection [CRBSI] rate was 0.32 episodes/1000 catheter days, with no association between medical therapy and CRBSI rate. CONCLUSIONS This is the largest series reporting disease behaviour and long-term outcomes in CD-IF and the first describing prophylactic therapy use. The incidence of disease recurrence was low. Immunosuppressive therapy appears to be safe in HPN-dependent patients with no increased risk of CRBSI. The management of CD-IF needs to be tailored to the patient's surgical disease history alongside disease phenotype.

Clin Nutr ESPEN 2023; 58:342-349. [PMID: 38057025 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2023.11.002] [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: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION SARC-F (Strength, Assistance in walking, Rise from a chair, Climb stairs and Falls) is a validated screening questionnaire for rapidly assessing sarcopenia in older adults with a variety of diseases while the Rockwood clinical frailty scale (RCFS) is a commonly used tool for assessing frailty in older adults. However, there are no data regarding the use of these tools in patients with type two intestinal failure (T2IF). We aimed to compare SARC-F and RCFS to bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and anthropometry in patients with T2IF. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, patients with T2IF admitted to a national U.K. reference centre had SARC-F, RCFS, BIA and anthropometry performed. A SARC-F score ≥4 indicated potential sarcopenia while a RCFS ≥5 indicated frailty. Statistical analyses were conducted to assess correlation, concordance and differences between measurements. RESULTS The study comprised 76 patients, of whom 59.2 % were female, with a mean age of 56.5 years ± 16. Seventy percent of patients had short bowel syndrome as an underlying cause of IF. Thirty eight percent of patients had a SARC-F ≥4 and 20 % had a RCFS ≥5. SARC-F was correlated with RCFS (rs 0.43, p < 0.001), phase angle (PA) (rs -0.55, p < 0.001) and hand grip strength (HGS) (rs -0.34, p 0.004). RCFS was correlated with HGS (rs -0.31, p 0.009). Significant differences emerged between PA (p 0.002) and HGS (p 0.003) values in patients with SARC-F scores ≥4 and < 4 and with HGS for patients with RCFS ≥5 and < 5 (p 0.01). Patients with SARC-F scores ≥4 had longer lengths of stays than those with scores <4 (p 0.002). Compared to PA and HGS, SARC-F had sensitivities of 39 % and 37 % and specificities of 92 % and 73 % respectively. CONCLUSION We demonstrated SARC-F is correlated with PA and HGS with comparable sensitivity and specificity to its original use in older individuals. There is a role for SARC-F as a means of rapidly assessing muscle quality and function in hospitalised patients with IF with RCFS providing some useful information about muscle function.

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
Type II intestinal failure (IF-II) is a condition in which the gastrointestinal tract is compromised. Liver complications may occur because of the pathology and/or prolonged use of parenteral nutrition (PN); oxidative stress has been implicated as one of the causes. Lipid emulsions containing n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been proposed for the treatment. We aimed to evaluate the effect of 7-day n-3 PUFA supplementation on oxidative stress in IF-II patients receiving PN. This was a randomized, controlled, double-blinded, pilot trial of adult patients with IF-II, receiving either conventional PN (control) or PN enriched with n-3 PUFAs (intervention). Twenty patients were included (14 men, 49 ± 16.9 years), with the ANCOVA analysis the glucose (p = 0.003), and direct bilirubin (p = 0.001) levels reduced; whereas the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) increased (p = 0.017). In the random-effect linear regression analysis, a reduction (p < 0.0001) in the malondialdehyde (MDA) level was found in the intervention group when the covariables age, HDL-C level, and alanine aminotransferase activity were considered. After 1 week of PN supplementation with n-3 PUFAs, the marker levels of some oxidative stress, blood lipids, and hepatic biomarkers improved in patients with IF-II.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is a complex medical condition that is caused by a constellation of disorders, resulting in the gut's inability to adequately absorb fluids and nutrients to sustain hydration, growth, and survival, thereby requiring the use of parenteral fluid and/or nutrition. Significant advancements in intestinal rehabilitation have resulted in improved survival rates for individuals with IF. There are distinct differences, however, related to etiology, adaptive potential and complications, and medical and surgical management when comparing children with adults. The purpose of this review is to contrast the similarities and differences between these two distinct groups and provide insight for future directions, as a growing population of pediatric patients will cross into the adult world for IF management.

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.

Kalaiselvan R, Slade DAJ, Soop M, Burnett H, Lees NP, Anderson ID, Lal S, Carlson GL. Impact of negative pressure wound therapy on enteroatmospheric fistulation in the septic open abdomen. Colorectal Dis 2023; 25:111-117. [PMID: 36031878 DOI: 10.1111/codi.16318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
AIM The effect of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on the pathogenesis and outcome of enteroatmospheric fistulation (EAF) in the septic open abdomen (OA) is unclear. This study compares the development and outcome of EAF following NPWT with that occurring in the absence of NPWT. METHODS Consecutive patients admitted with EAF following abdominal sepsis at a National Reference Centre for intestinal failure between 01 January 2005 and 31 December 2015 were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups based on those that had been treated with NPWT and those that had not (non-NPWT) and characteristics of their fistulas compared. Clinical outcomes concerning nutritional autonomy at 4 years and time to fistula development, size of abdominal wall defect and complete fistula closure were compared between groups. RESULTS A total of 160 patients were admitted with EAF following a septic abdomen (31-NPWT and 129-non-NPWT). Median (range) time taken to fistulation after OA was longer with NPWT (18 [5-113] vs. 8 [2-60] days, p = 0.004); these patients developed a greater number of fistulas (3 [2-21] vs. 2 [1-10], p = 0.01), involving a greater length of small bowel (42.5 [15-100] cm vs. 30 [3.5-170] cm, p = 0.04) than those who did not receive NPWT. Following reconstructive surgery, nutritional autonomy was similar in both groups (77% vs. 72%) and a comparable number of patients were also fistula-free (100% vs. 97%). CONCLUSIONS Negative pressure wound therapy appears to be associated with more complex and delayed intestinal fistulation, involving a greater length of small intestine in the septic OA. This did not, however, appear to adversely affect the overall outcome of intestinal and abdominal wall reconstruction in this study.

Abstract
Patients with postoperative Crohn's disease are difficult to manage because of their risk of experiencing a more severe course, multiple symptom confounders, and poor sensitivity of symptomatic remission to rule out intestinal inflammation. In this group, data are lacking on biologic therapeutic efficacy, and recommendations are lacking for those with multiple medication failures. Novel noninvasive testing can simultaneously exclude alternate causes of symptoms (serum C4, fecal fat, small intestinal bowel overgrowth breath testing) and assess intestinal inflammation (fecal calprotectin, endoscopic healing index). In addition, endoscopy-based disease activity assessment and management are required. Endoscopy should be performed within 6 months of surgery, and aggressive disease activity monitoring can be considered with colonoscopy every 1-2 years subsequently to ensure late recurrence is detected. Patients with multiple resections should be screened for short bowel syndrome. Predictive biomarkers are needed to guide medication selection in this high-risk population. Postoperative prophylactic biologic therapy is prudent for patients with preoperative biologic failure. However, there are no high-quality data to guide which agent should be selected. Selecting biologics with an alternative mechanism of action in those who had failed a biologic with adequate drug concentrations and selection of different agents in those with previous intolerance are reasonable. Significantly more study is required to assess the efficacy of therapies in this setting.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is the inability of the gut to absorb necessary water, macronutrients, micronutrients, and electrolytes sufficient to sustain life and requiring intravenous supplementation or replacement. IF Types 1 and 2 are the initial phase of this condition and usually last for weeks to a few months. Type 3 IF (also known as chronic IF [CIF]) is a chronic and stable condition, usually irreversible, whose main treatment is home parenteral nutrition. CIF is a relatively rare condition, and its prevalence and different causes vary throughout the world. Due to its complexity, CIF requires a multidisciplinary team with experience in this field to achieve successful outcomes. This editorial aims to provide an overview of CIF in adults, emphasizing the challenges faced by clinicians when managing this rare entity, as well as outlining the role of the gastroenterologist.

Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Intestinal Failure Due to Short Bowel Syndrome and Intestinal Fistula. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14071449. [PMID: 35406061 PMCID: PMC9003376 DOI: 10.3390/nu14071449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 03/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) and enterocutaneous or enteroatmospheric fistulas are common indications for home parenteral nutrition (HPN). However, there are few data describing factors influencing surgical decision-making or outcomes particularly following fistula development. We aimed to compare outcomes between patients with SBS and fistulas and explore surgical decision-making. HPN-dependent adults from 2001−2018 at a national reference centre were included in this study. HPN cessation was analysed using death as competing risk. In total, 465 patients (SBS (62%), fistula (38%)) were included, with median HPN dependency of 2.6 years. In total, 203 patients underwent reconstructive surgery; while frailty was the commonest reason for not undergoing surgery (49.2%), 22.7% declined surgery. Overall, 170 ceased HPN, with a probability of 13.8%, 34.1% and 38.3% at 1, 5 and 10 years, respectively. Patients undergoing surgery had higher nutritional autonomy rates (109.8 incidences/1000 patient years) compared to those not undergoing surgery (18.1 incidences/1000 patient years; p < 0.001). A total of 295 patients (63.4%) were predicted to cease HPN based on gastrointestinal anatomy but only 162/295 (54.9%) achieved this; those unable to do so were older with a higher comorbidity index. There were no differences in long-term nutritional and survival outcomes or surgical decisions between patients with SBS and fistulas, or between enterocutaneous and enteroatmospheric fistulas. This study represents one of the largest datasets describing the ability of HPN-dependent patients with SBS or fistulas to achieve nutritional autonomy. While reconstructive surgery facilitates HPN cessation, approximately one-fifth of patients declined surgery despite HPN dependency. These data will better inform patient expectation and help plan alternative therapies.

Abstract
Introduction: Gastrointestinal fistula is one of the most difficult problems in gastrointestinal surgery. It is associated with high morbidity and mortality, numerous complications, prolonged hospitalization, and high cost of treatment. </br>Aim: This project aimed to develop recommendations for the treatment of gastrointestinal fistulas, based on evidence-based medicine and best clinical practice to reduce treatment-related mortality and morbidity. </br>Material and methods: The preparation of these recommendations is based on a review of the literature from the PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane Library databases from 1.01.2010 to 31.12.2020, with particular emphasis on systematic reviews and clinical recommendations of recognized scientific societies. Recommendations in the form of a directive were formulated and assessed using the Delphi method. </br>Results and conclusions: Nine recommendations were presented along with a discussion and comments of experts. Treatment should be managed by a multidisciplinary team (surgeon, anesthetist, clinical nutritionist/dietician, nurse, pharmacist, endoscopist).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is a life-saving therapy for patients with chronic intestinal failure but can be associated with a degree of psychological distress. The factors associated with the need for antidepressants (ADs) in this cohort have not yet been described. METHODS The study involved prospective data collection from patients attending an HPN clinic at a national intestinal failure referral center. Patients requiring HPN as a result of active malignancy were excluded. Patients were divided in 2 groups according to AD usage; demographic, anthropometric, socioeconomic characteristics, and intravenous supplementation (IVS) regimens were compared between groups. RESULTS A total of 184 patients were recruited between July 2018 and April 2019, with an overall prevalence of AD use of 41.7% (70/168 patients). Daily mean IVS volume was significantly higher among patients taking AD ("AD" group; 2125.48 ± 991.8 ml/day, "no-AD" group; 1828.54 ± 847.0 ml/day, P = .039), with the proportion of patients needing high-volume IVS (≥3000 ml/day) being 3 times higher in the AD group (20.0%(14/70 patients) vs 6.1% (6/98 patients), P = .006). The average energy IVS infusion per day was similar between the groups. CONCLUSION This is the first study to demonstrate that AD use correlates with higher IVS volume rather than energy requirements in HPN patients, suggesting that high IVS volume requirements may be better associated with the patient's disease burden. Early and tailored mental health intervention may be beneficial in those with high IVS volume requirements.

Abstract
AIM Type 2 intestinal failure (IF) is characterized by the need for longer-term parenteral nutrition (PN). During this so-called bridging-to-surgery period, morbidity and mortality rates are high. This study aimed to evaluate to what extent a multidisciplinary IF team is capable to safely guide patients towards reconstructive surgery. METHODS A consecutive series of patients with type 2 IF followed up by a specialized IF team between January 1st, 2011, and March 1st, 2016, was analyzed. Data on their first outpatient clinic visit (T1) and their last visit before reconstructive surgery (T2) was collected. The primary outcome was a combined endpoint of a patient being able to recover at home, have (partial) oral intake, and a normal albumin level (> 35 g/L) before surgery. RESULTS Ninety-three patients were included. The median number of previous abdominal procedures was 4. At T2 (last visit prior to reconstructive surgery), significantly more patients met the combined primary endpoint compared with T1 (first IF team consultation) (66.7% vs. 28.0% (p < 0.0001), respectively); 86% had home PN. During "bridging-to-surgery," acute hospitalization rate was 40.9% and acute surgery was 4.3%. Postoperatively, 44.1% experienced a major complication, 5.4% had a fistula, and in-hospital mortality was 6.5%. Of the cohort, 86% regained enteral autonomy, and when excluding in-hospital mortality and incomplete follow-up, this was 94.1%. An albumin level < 35 g/L at T2 and weight loss of > 10% at T2 compared with preadmission weight were significant risk factors for major complications. CONCLUSION Bridging-to-surgery of type 2 IF patients under the guidance of an IF team resulted in the majority of patients being managed at home, having oral intake, and restored albumin levels prior to reconstructive surgery compared with their first IF consultation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This survey of centers caring for patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) was conducted to assess the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis on the management of these patients regarding provision of care, monitoring, regular follow-up, and any changes to service infrastructure. METHODS A survey was devised and publically published on the Research Electronic Data Capture database management system, with individual centers responding to a public link. RESULTS A total of 78 adult and pediatric centers worldwide contributed to the survey, representing ≥3500 patients' experiences. Centers reported infrastructure maintenance for Parenteral Nutrition (PN) bag deliveries to patients (60, 76.92%) or delivery of ancillary items (57, 73.08%), home delivery and HPN administration (65, 83.33%), and home care nurse shortages (25, 32.05%). Routine follow-up of HPN patients changed to either all telemed or mixed with emergency clinic review (70, 89.74%). In 26 centers (33.33%), HPN for newly discharged patients with benign conditions was reduced or stopped. Based on clinical history, the centers reported psychological distress for patients (52, 66.67%), with anxiety, worry, concern, and apprehension reported most frequently (37 of 52, 71.15%) but also fear (10 of 52, 19.23%), depression (5 of 52, 9.62%), and issues related to isolation/confinement (12 of 52, 23.08%). CONCLUSIONS The COVID-19 pandemic was reported by clinicians to have had a far-reaching adverse impact on patients receiving HPN, especially their safety in terms of provision of personal protective equipment, PN bags, available nursing staff, and psychological well-being. Healthcare systems responded to the challenge and presented new ways of working.

Abstract
The current concepts of the short bowel syndrome and malabsorption after intestinal surgery are generally accepted, but do not fully reflect the patients condition, making it difficult to diagnose and treat it. AIM The purpose of the study is to analyze the clinical course of the patients after bowel resection, to create a classification based on the variants identified to allow for a differentiated treatment and to introduce the concept of the resected bowel syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS We observed 239 patients (96 men and 143 women) aged 18 to 80 who underwent intestinal resection for 1 month to 16 years (from 2002 to 2018). The 1st group included 96 patients with small bowel resection (40 men and 56 women). The 2nd group included 39 men and 58 women with small bowel resection, including the resection of the ileocecal valve and the right-hand side of the colon (n=97). The 3rd group included 17 men and 29 women with the resection of the right-hand side of the colon or colectomy (n=46). The survey included the NRS-2002 (Nutritional Risk Screening 2002) screening test to identify nutritional risk, a clinical assessment of the symptoms that occurred after the surgery, instrumental methods (esophagogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy with biopsy, ultrasound of the abdominal cavity organs and the kidneys, a plain radiography of the abdominal cavity organs, an X-ray examination of the small intestine and the intestinal passage), serum citrulline and short-chain fatty acids in faeces. RESULTS Based on the analysis of the clinical symptoms and the nutritional status of the patients, a new concept is proposed the resected bowel syndrome with two variants of its progression: either with or without the development of nutritional insufficiency of three types: the dehydration type, the protein-energy insufficiency type and a mixed type. Type 1 requires the use of antimicrobials with the control of SCFA concentrations in faeces. Type 2 requires the introduction of an optimal amount of easily digestible protein to correct protein-energy deficit. The 3rd (most severe) mixed type requires prescription of a parenteral nutrition component with the control of citrulline concentration in the blood serum. CONCLUSION The proposed concept the resected bowel syndrome makes it possible to improve its diagnosis, take into account the variants of its progression and allow for a differentiated treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type II (acute) intestinal failure (IF) is usually caused by complications of abdominal surgery resulting in enteric fistulas or proximal stomas and requires parenteral nutrition (PN) for several months. This study aimed to evaluate clinical management and outcome of type II IF patients in a single center. METHODS Medical records of patients referred to the Intestinal Rehabilitation Team (IRT) at Samsung Medical Center (Seoul, Korea) were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS From 2014 to 2019, 34 patients with IF were referred. 28 patients were type II IF and were included in the analysis. There were 17 males and 11 females. Mean age of patients was 56.7 years. Pathophysiology of IF were high-output stoma in 16 cases, extensive bowel resection (with bowel in continuity) in 7 cases, and enterocutaneous fistula in 5 cases. The catastrophic events necessitating abdominal surgery in the patients were adhesive ileus in 9 cases, superior mesenteric artery thrombosis in 8 cases, internal herniation of bowel in 5 cases, traumatic bowel injury in 3 cases, and ischemic enteritis in 3 cases. Following medical and surgical rehabilitation, 10 patients (35.7%) were weaned off PN and overall mortality was 28.5%. Deaths were related to progression of underlying malignancies in 4 cases, liver failure in 3 cases, and sepsis in 1 case. Thirteen patients underwent surgery to restore bowel continuity. Six postoperative complications occurred in 4 patients (30.7%) and there were no postoperative mortalities. CONCLUSION Standardized care including restorative surgery resulted in successful outcomes in type II IF patients in this cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Intestinal Failure (IF) is a complex disease with huge impacts on our society due to complications. Therefore, in a developing country like Mexico without specialized IF clinics, health care professionals must provide evidence-based interventions for the IF patient. This study aims to achieve consensus on how to adapt the existing guidelines for IF to the local practices considering the available resources and local practices. METHODS A three-round modified Delphi process was used to build consensus on the most important interventions for our IF patients. For each round, data was collected and consensus was defined as ≥80% of agreement for each item. Descriptive statistics were used to determine whether a consensus was achieved. RESULTS Ten content experts completed the three-round modified Delphi survey. Consensus was achieved for 98% of the items related to the hospitalized patient, ambulatory care management, and drug therapy. Some of these items are not included in the ESPEN guidelines for IF, but we considered that they are relevant in our clinical practice, like the calculation of fluids for patients with very low body weight, screening for refeeding syndrome and the use of some conventional drugs to promote intestinal rehabilitation. CONCLUSIONS Using a three-round modified Delphi process, consensus was achieved for nearly all items. This represents a starting point for the improvement of our local practices towards this complex disease, leading to better outcomes and the implementation of evidence-based protocolized interventions which can have an important impact due to the lack of access to some of the most novel pharmacological therapies like the glucagon-like-peptide (GLP-2) analog.

Abstract
The management of enterocutaneous fistulas (ECF) can be challenging because of massive fluid loss, which can lead to electrolyte imbalance, severe dehydration, malnutrition and sepsis. Nutritional support plays a key role in the management and successful closure of ECF. The principle of nutritional support for patients with ECF should be giving enteral nutrition (EN) priority, supplemented by parenteral nutrition if necessary. Although total parenteral nutrition (TPN) may be indicated, use of enteral feeding should be advocated as early as possible if patients are tolerant to it, which can protect gut mucosal barrier and prevent bacterial translocation. A variety of methods of enteral nutrition have been developed such as fistuloclysis and relay perfusion. ECF can also be occluded by special devices and then EN can be implemented, including fibrin glue application, Over-The-Scope Clip placement and three-dimensional (3D)-printed patient-personalized fistula stent implantation. However, those above should not be conducted in acute fistulas, because tissues are edematous and perforation could easily occur.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with intestinal failure (IF) are prone to hypophosphatemia and shifts in magnesium and potassium levels. Although these shifts are often attributed to refeeding syndrome (RFS), the incidence of electrolyte shifts among patients with IF is unknown. We evaluated the occurrence of hypophosphatemia and other electrolyte shifts according to the functional and pathophysiological IF classifications. METHODS We consecutively included all patients' first admission to an IF unit from 2013 to 2017. Electrolyte shifts were defined as severe hypophosphatemia <0.6 mmol/L (mM) or any 2 other shifts below reference range, comprising hypomagnesemia <0.75 mM, hypophosphatemia <0.8 mM, or hypokalemia <3.5 mM. Outcomes included length of stay, central line-associated bloodstream infection, and other infections. Mortality was evaluated 6 months after discharge. RESULTS Of 236 patients with IF, electrolyte shifts occurred in 99 (42%), and 127 (54%) of these patients received intravenous supplementation with either phosphate, magnesium, or potassium. In patients who started parenteral nutrition, up to 62% of early-onset shifts (<5 days) related to refeeding, and up to 63% of late-onset shifts (≥5 days) could be ascribed to infections. Derangements occurred in 7 (18%) with type 1 IF, 53 (43%) with type 2 IF, and 39 (53%) readmitted patients with type 3 IF. Of 133 patients with IF secondary to short-bowel syndrome, 65 (49%) developed shifts. CONCLUSION In patients with IF, electrolyte shifts are frequent but not always due to RFS. Electrolyte shifts are common in patients with type 2 and those readmitted with type 3 IF.

Abstract
Introduction We report the case of a successful management with combined aggressive surgery and negative pressure therapy, to treat a severely ill-septic patient, affected by multiple chronic enterocutaneous fistulas. Presentation of case A 26-year-old female patient presented with multiple pelvic and intra-abdominal abscesses, enterocutaneous fistulas and central venous catheter-related bacteraemia in extremely poor general conditions.The patient underwent both an abdominal CT which showed multiple digestive loops stuck and apparently fistulised and an abdominal-pelvic MRI, confirming the CT findings, and demonstrating a third fistula involving the Pouch and responsible for a pelvic and retroperitoneal chronic abscess.Given the patient's septic condition, despite several attempts of conservative therapies, an aggressive surgical approach was adopted.After temporary abdominal wall closure, the patient underwent Vacuum Assisted Closure therapy in order to close the abdominal wall and drain the residual abscess. The patient was discharged at the 35th post-operative day in good general conditions. Discussion This case is about a complex, long-lasting clinical scenario, progressively leading a young woman to death despite several attempts of conservative therapy, sometimes allowed to treat enterocutaneous fistulas. The use of negative pressure therapy to manage open abdomen is still controversial. Patients affected by enterocutaneous fistulas are in need of adequate nutritional support due to their hypercatabolic state, secondary both to the fluid loss and the concomitant inflammatory status. Conclusion When conservative management fails and the patient shows septic complications, a multidisciplinary aggressive approach, including surgery, negative-pressure therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy is required to treat this life-threatening condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infective endocarditis (IE) is a recognized complication of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). Central venous access devices (CVADs) are essential for the delivery of long-term parenteral nutrition (PN), yet there are no published data as to the prevalence, characteristics and outcomes of IE in this population. METHODS A prospectively maintained database of patients with intestinal failure (IF) types 2 and 3, managed by a national intestinal failure center between January 2010 and December 2018, was analyzed retrospectively and relevant factors extracted from case records. RESULTS A total of 745 patients with IF and CVADs in situ on admission, or placed during their stay, were admitted over the duration of this study, 640 with type 2 IF and 105 with type 3 IF. Two hundred eighty-two echocardiograms were performed to investigate potential IE associated with a CLABSI event. Four cases of IE were identified in the entire cohort of 782,666 catheter days (IE incidence rate: 0.005 per 1000 catheter days and 187 per 100,000 person-years for the entire cohort; 0.048 per 1000 inpatient catheter days for acute type 2 IF, 0.0026 per 1000 outpatient catheter days [ie, 99 per 100,000 person-years for outpatients with type 3 IF]). CONCLUSION IE is rare in the type 3 IF population and a rare consequence of CLABSI in inpatient acute type 2 IF. However, mortality and morbidity are high. Routine echocardiography may not be warranted for investigation of CLABSI unless there is a high risk of IE or a virulent organism is involved.

Abstract
AIM This study aims to determine the prevalence of incisional hernia (IH) and enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) in patients with intestinal failure (IF) referred to a tertiary centre and to identify factors associated with their development. METHOD A retrospective case note review was undertaken of a prospectively maintained database of all patients on home parenteral nutrition between 2011 and 2016 at a UK tertiary referral centre for IF. Risk factors were identified using binary logistic regression. RESULTS The database search identified 447 patients, of whom 349 (78.1%) had surgery prior to developing IF. Eighty-one (23.2%) patients had an IH and 123 (35.2%) had an ECF at the time of referral. Of these, 51 (14.6%) had both IH and ECF. IH was associated with a high body mass index (P = 0.05), a history of a major surgical complication resulting in IF (P = 0.01), previous emergency surgery (P = 0.04), increasing number of operations (P = 0.02) and surgical site infection (SSI; P = 0.01). ECF was associated with complications relating to earlier surgery. (P ≤ .001), previous treatment with an open abdomen (P = 0.03), SSI (P = 0.001), intra-abdominal collection (P ≤ 0.001) and anastomotic leak (P = 0.02). CONCLUSION In this series, patients with IF had a prevalence of IH which was more than double that expected following elective laparotomy (about 10%) and one in three had an ECF. Risk factors for IH and ECF are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the gastrointestinal tract suffer frequently from chronic diarrhea. A well characterized medical advice containing zeolite (Detoxsan® powder) was applied to patients suffered from therapy-refractory diarrhea either by its frequency or by watery stool, despite receiving standard pharmacotherapy according to the guidelines for carcinoid syndrome and comorbidities. Detoxsan® powder acts as an adsorbent and might reduce significantly symptoms of diarrhea in patients suffering from NETs.
AIM To overcome the therapy-refractory diarrhea of patients with NETs by the zeolite containing medical advice Detoxsan® powder.
METHODS A total of 20 patients (12 female and 8 male) suffering from diarrhea either by its frequency or from watery stool caused by NETs were included. In each patient, the diagnosis had been confirmed by histology and somatostatin receptors expression proven by positron emission tomography/computed tomography using Ga-68-labeled somatostatin analogs. All patients received standard-of-care pharmacotherapy and were additionally given Detoxsan® powder as an extemporaneous drug containing 90% natural Cuban zeolite and 10% magnesium aspartate. Recommended daily dosage ranges between 3 g once to three times per day. Each day dose and bowel movements were documented by the patients themselves in a pre-defined table. Additionally to the bowel movements quantitative determinations of serotonin, urea, creatinine and single ions were performed within the serum of the patients by commercially available equipment used as a matter of routine in the clinic.
RESULTS All patients enrolled in this pilot study did not only suffer from NETs, but also from comorbidities and treatment-resistant diarrhea. There was insufficient control of diarrhea, most probably due to the secretion of hormones like serotonin produced by the slowly growing and highly differentiated NETs. All patients only took Detoxsan® powder as an antidiarrheal drug. In general, response effects need several days to become perceptible and require an intake of Detoxsan® powder for an extended time period or intermittently, if persisting stabilization of bowel movements could not be achieved. A correlation between NET grade, part and size of bowel resection and functionality of the tumor could not be demonstrated. Therefore, diarrhea seemed to be based on the metabolic activity of the well-differentiated NETs, which eventually led to treatment resistance. In summary, 14 out of the 20 patients (70%) declared to be very content with using Detoxsan® powder and observed a significant reduction of diarrhea, while the effective dose and intake period that resulted in a symptom relief varied individually.
CONCLUSION Detoxsan® powder is able to reduce significantly symptoms of NET-related diarrhea in the majority of patients. The duration of taking Detoxsan® powder and its dosage vary individually.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Intestinal failure (IF) is defined from a requirement or intravenous supplementation due to failing capacity to absorb nutrients and fluids. Acute IF is an acute, potentially reversible form of IF. We aimed to identify the prevalence, underlying causes and outcomes of acute IF. METHODS This point-of-prevalence study included all adult patients hospitalized in acute care hospitals and receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) on a study day. The reason for PN and the mechanism of IF (if present) were documented by local investigators and reviewed by an expert panel. RESULTS Twenty-three hospitals (19 university, 4 regional) with a total capacity of 16,356 acute care beds and 1237 intensive care unit (ICU) beds participated in this study. On the study day, 338 patients received PN (21 patients/1000 acute care beds) and 206 (13/1000) were categorized as acute IF. The categorization of reason for PN was revised in 64 cases (18.9% of total) in consensus between the expert panel and investigators. Hospital mortality of all study patients was 21.5%; the median hospital stay was 36 days. Patients with acute IF had a hospital mortality of 20.5% and median hospital stay of 38 days (P > 0.05 for both outcomes). Disordered gut motility (e.g. ileus) was the most common mechanism of acute IF, and 71.5% of patients with acute IF had undergone abdominal surgery. Duration of PN of ≥42 days was identified as being the best cut-off predicting hospital mortality within 90 days. PN ≥ 42 days, age, sepsis and ICU admission were independently associated with 90-day hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS Around 2% of adult patients in acute care hospitals received PN, 60% of them due to acute IF. High 90-day hospital mortality and long hospital stay were observed in patients receiving PN, whereas presence of acute IF did not additionally influence these outcomes. Duration of PN was associated with increased 90-day hospital mortality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Restorative proctocolectomy is a surgical treatment for patients with medically refractory ulcerative colitis and some cases of familial adenomatous polyposis. Intestinal failure, defined as an inability to maintain adequate hydration and micronutrient balances when on a conventionally accepted normal diet, is a rare complication of restorative proctocolectomy. We describe our experience of patients with restorative proctocolectomy who have developed intestinal failure requiring parenteral support. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a retrospective analysis using a database of patients referred to our intestinal failure unit from January 1998 to January 2016. We analysed the records of all those patients who had restorative proctocolectomy who developed intestinal failure. RESULTS 807 patient records analysed, 35 patients were found to have had a restorative proctocolectomy (13 male and 22 female). Ninety-one percent (n = 32) of patients developed IF as a consequence of unpredictable complications which occurred after RPC formation. Potentially predictable complications were noted in 9% (n = 3) of patients. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Most cases of intestinal failure in restorative proctocolectomy were unpredictable. In a small number of patients, accurate assessment and measurement of the small intestine may have better predicted the adverse outcome of intestinal failure allowing improved pre-operative counseling of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Intestinal failure (IF) is defined as "the reduction of gut function below the minimum necessary for the absorption of macronutrients and/or water and electrolytes, such that intravenous supplementation is required to maintain health and/or growth". Functionally, it may be classified as type I acute intestinal failure (AIF), type II prolonged AIF and type III chronic intestinal failure (CIF) The ESPEN Workshop on IF was held in Bologna, Italy, on 15-16 October 2017 and the aims of this document were to highlight the current state of the art and future directions for research in IF. METHODS This paper represents the opinion of experts in the field, based on current evidence. It is not a formal review, but encompasses the current evidence, with emphasis on epidemiology, classification, diagnosis and management. RESULTS IF is the rarest form of organ failure and can result from a variety of conditions that affect gastrointestinal anatomy and function adversely. Assessment, diagnosis, and short and long-term management involves a multidisciplinary team with diverse expertise in the field that aims to reduce complications, increase life expectancy and improve quality of life in patients. CONCLUSIONS Both AIF and CIF are relatively rare conditions and most of the published work presents evidence from small, single-centre studies. Much remains to be investigated to improve the diagnosis and management of IF and future studies should rely on multidisciplinary, multicentre and multinational collaborations that gather data from large cohorts of patients. Emphasis should also be placed on partnership with patients, carers and government agencies in order to improve the quality of research that focuses on patient-centred outcomes that will help to improve both outcomes and quality of life in patients with this devastating condition.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is a condition characterized by the inability to maintain a state of adequate nutrition, or fluid and electrolyte balance due to an anatomical or a physiological disorder of the gastrointestinal system. IF can be an extremely debilitating condition, significantly affecting the quality of life of those affected. The surgical management of patients with acute and chronic IF requires a specialist team who has the expertise in terms of technical challenges and decision-making. A dedicated IF unit will have the expertise in patient selection for surgery, investigative workup and planning, operative risk assessment with relevant anesthetic expertise, and a multidisciplinary team with support such as nutritional expertise and interventional radiology. This article covers the details of IF management, including the classification of IF, etiology, prevention of IF, and initial management of IF, focusing on sepsis treatment and nutritional support. It also covers the surgical aspects of IF such as intestinal reconstruction, abdominal wall reconstruction, and intestinal transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proximal or extended bowel resections are sometimes necessary during emergency surgery of the small bowel and call for creating a high small bowel stomy as a part of damage control surgery. Secondary restoration of intestinal continuity in the frail geriatric patient, further weakened by subsequent severe malabsorption may be prohibitive. METHODS Six patients underwent emergency small bowel resection for proximal jejunal disease (83.3% high-grade adhesive SBO and 16.7% jejunal diverticulitis complicated with perforation). With the intention to avoid end jejunostomy and the need for repeat laparotomy for bowel continuity restoration we modified the classic Paul-Mikulicz jejunostomy. RESULTS The postoperative course was uneventful in four patients whose general condition improved considerably. At six-month follow-up, neither patients required parenteral nutrition. CONCLUSIONS This modified stoma can have the advantage of allowing a partial passage of the enteric contents, reducing the degree of malabsorption, and rendering jejunostomy reversal easy to perform later.

Home parenteral nutrition and employment in patients with intestinal failure: Factors associated with return to employment. Clin Nutr 2018; 38:1211-1214. [PMID: 30449605 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2018.04.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2018] [Revised: 04/25/2018] [Accepted: 04/30/2018] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is provided to patients with intestinal failure (IF). HPN can however affect the patients' quality of life and ability to remain in employment. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of HPN on employment and factors associated with the likelihood of maintaining or returning to employment while on HPN. METHODS Patients with chronic IF were identified from a prospectively maintained IF Unit database. A structured questionnaire was designed to probe employment both before and after starting HPN, intention to work and social welfare status (benefits & pensions). RESULTS A total of 196 (62.8% females, median age 53 years) patients participated in the study of which 184 (94%) patients were in full or part time employment before their illness. At the time of starting HPN, 102 (52%) patients had the desire to return to work with 19 (18%) and 48 (47%) patients returning to full time or part time employment respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the frequency of the HPN infusion per week (p = 0.045) and intention to work after starting HPN (p = 0.001) were significantly associated with returning to work. CONCLUSIONS Patients on HPN can have their employment status affected. The number of days per week on HPN and the desire of the patient to return to employment are significantly associated with employment.
