Objetivo

Estudiar la utilidad y eficacia de la nutrición enteral transpilórica (NET) en el niño críticamente enfermo, analizando los factores que influyen en la tolerancia digestiva

Pacientes y métodos

Estudio prospectivo observacional realizado entre 1994 y 2002, de los niños críticamente enfermos, ingresados que recibieron NET. En este estudio se analizan las indicaciones, el tipo de nutrición y su duración

Resultados

Se incluyen 286 pacientes (el 8,4 % de los pacientes ingresados en la unidad de cuidados intensivos pediátricos), de edades entre 3 días y 17 años de edad recibieron nutrición transpilórica: 55 niños (19,2 %) eran menores de un mes de vida, y 165 (57,7 %), menores de 6 meses. El 70% recibieron exclusivamente NET. La indicación más frecuente de NET fue la ventilación mecánica, en 255 niños (89,2 %). Recibieron NET en el postoperatorio de cirugía cardíaca 176 pacientes (61,5 %). La duración media de la NET fue 15,4 ± 25 días, el volumen máximo de 118,7 ± 41ml/kg/día y las calorías máximas de 88,6 ± 26,7kcal/kg/ día. Durante la NET, 227 pacientes recibieron sedantes y analgésicos (79,3 %), y 124 relajantes musculares (43,3 %), sin modificar la tolerancia

Conclusiones

La NET es una técnica de alimentación útil en el niño críticamente enfermo

Objective

To study the utility and efficacy of transpyloric enteral nutrition (TEN) in critically-ill children by analyzing the factors that determine enteral tolerance

Patients and methods

We performed a prospective, observational study between 1994 and 2002 of all critically-ill children admitted to our pediatric intensive care unit who received TEN. The indications for enteral nutrition, type of nutrition and its duration were studied

Results

A total of 286 patients (8.4 % of patients admitted to the PICU in the study period), aged between 3 days and 17 years received TEN. Fifty-five children (19.2 %) were aged less than 1 month and 165 (27.7 %) were aged less than 6 months. Seventy percent received TEN exclusively. The most frequent indication for TEN was mechanical ventilation in 255 children (89.2 %). One hundred seventy-six patients (61.5 %) received TEN in the postoperative period after cardiac surgery. The mean duration of TEN was 15.4 ± 25 days, the maximum volume of nutrition was 118.7 ± 41ml/kg/day, and the maximum caloric intake was 88.6 ± 26.7kcal/kg/day. During TEN, 227 patients received sedation (79.3 %), and 124 were administered muscle relaxants (43.3 %), with no increase in complications

Conclusions

TEN is a useful method of nutrition in critically-ill children
