Zolik Family Pediatric Nutrition Month: Intravenous Lipids in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: Metabolism and Clinical Outcomes

March 7, 2023
We invite you to join us for the Zolik Family Pediatric Nutrition Month CME webinar series! These free webinars will feature pediatric nutrition experts from around the country sharing information to assist you in caring for your patients and their families.
 
The Pediatric Nutrition Month CME webinar series is made possible thanks to a philanthropic gift from the Zolik Family.
 
The initial focus on intravenous lipid emulsions (ILE) in critically ill neonates over 50 years ago centered on safely providing a calorically dense intravenous nutrient that prevented essential fatty acid deficiency. Increased access to different ILEs in neonatal intensive care units in the United States occurred only very recently. These newly available formulations have expanded our expectations of ILE beyond that of a source of calories and essential fatty acids. This session will discuss the ILE compositions and (mis)matches between composition and expected influences on metabolic and health outcomes in critically ill neonates.
