  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Critically ill infants with either a known anatomic short gut (greater than 50% of the bowel removed) or known severe dysmotility of the gut reflecting non-functional gut similar to anatomic short gut will be offered Omegaven® when their direct bilirubin reaches 2 mg/dL. Infants who do not meet the above criteria for anatomic or dysfunctional short gut will be allowed to receive Omegaven® when their direct bilirubin reaches 4 mg/dL. The qualifying measurements of 2 mg/dL or 4 mg/dL direct bilirubin must be consecutive and obtained at least 24 hours apart.
  • Be expected to require intravenous nutrition for at least an additional 28 days
  • Patient must have documented failure of or ineligibility for the following therapies to prevent progression of PNALD:
  • Reduction of Intralipid® to 1 g/kg/day
  • Limiting trace minerals including copper and manganese
  • Initiation and use of Ursodiol

  • Cycling of parenteral nutrition
  • Advancement of enteral feedings
  • Parental informed consent must be signed.

Who cannot join

  • Have a congenitally lethal condition (e.g. Trisomy 13).
  • Have clinically severe bleeding not able to be managed with routine measures.
  • Have evidence of a viral hepatitis or primary liver disease as the primary etiology of their cholestasis.
  • Have other health problems such that survival is extremely unlikely even if the infant's cholestasis improves.
  • Has culture positive sepsis

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OmegavenDietary supplement

    Also called omega-3 enriched fat emulsion

    Therapy with Omegaven will be provided at a dose of 1 gm/kg/day (by continuous infusion). Omegaven will be infused intravenously through either a central or peripheral catheter in conjunction with parenteral nutrition.

  • OmegavenDrug

    Treatment will be given for as long as the child needs any TPN AND has a conjugated bilirubin greater than 2 mg/dL for a maximum of 2 years.

  • OmegavenDrug

    If the bilirubin is less than 2 mg/dL but the child still requires TPN, then the Omegaven will be continued until the infant no longer requires TPN.
