Abstract:BackgroundUsing soybean oil‐based lipid emulsions (Intralipid), which contain higher amounts of omega‐6 fatty acids and phytosterols in parenteral nutrition, is a risk factor for cholestasis (PNAC). An alternative form of a mixed lipid emulsion (SMOFlipid) has been developed to reduce the risk of PNAC, but significant benefits over Intralipid in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants have yet to be demonstrated. The aim of this study was to compare the differences in PNAC incidence in VLBW receiving SMOFlipid vs… Show more
