About this study

Official title: Rate of Termination of Commercial Premixed Parenteral Nutrition (PN) in Surgical Patients Secondary to High Serum Electrolyte Levels

Introduction:

Various commercial premixed parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions have been introduced to clinical practice in 3-compartment large volume bags. Olimel N9E is the formulary premixed PN formula at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH \& RC). The commercial premixed PN was associated with a significant cost reduction compared to the compounded PN, with lower incidence of infectious complications, compared to the compounded PN formula. Electrolyte irregularities are commonly encountered with PN use. Patients who develop high serum potassium, magnesium or phosphate levels while receiving premixed PN are shifted to a compounded PN with lower electrolyte content. This study aims to describe the incidence of shifting of premixed PN to a compounded PN secondary to high serum electrolytes in surgical patients receiving commercial premixed PN.

Methods:

This is a prospective, cohort, study, to be conducted at KFSH \& RC, Riyadh. This study is proposed to commence after obtaining the approval of the Research Ethical Committee at KFSH \& RC. Patients enrolment will start after the approval at KFSH \& RC, by data collection phase, that might extend for a suspected 6-month until achieving the target sample size of 55 patients. The analysis phase will follow and elapse for 2 months. This is followed by 2 months to get the initial abstract. All patients will have their potassium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus levels assessed daily in the morning for the first 7 days of PN initiation. After the first week of PN support, according to the routine laboratories, electrolytes will be assessed at a minimum of three times a week thereafter while on PN. There will be no extra laboratory work obtained for the study purpose. The incidence of shifting from premixed PN to compounded PN will be assessed and reported. A description of the characteristics of patients who develop high serum level of electrolytes will be undertaken using regression analysis.

Methods Study design and centres This is a prospective, cohort, multi-centre study, to be conducted at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, (KFSH \& RC), Riyadh. The study has been approved by KFSH\&RC Office of Research Affairs representing the institutional review board (IRB).

Subjects:

Sample Size Sample size has been calculated using Raosoft website based on the total surgical patients who receive PN support on monthly bases, which is 20 patients per month, and the duration of the data collection is expected to elapse 6 months. This makes the field population represented by 120 patients. According to a previous study that assessed need for bolus of electrolytes, 7% of the eligible patients are expected to have the outcome. Allowing for 5% margin of error and 95% confidence level the target sample size will be 72 patients from KFSH\&RC. Collaborating centers withdrew from this study due to insufficient eligible patients given the COVID-19 pandemic.

Protocol Surgical patients starting PN will be screened for the inclusion and exclusion criteria by the investigators of the study. Eligible patients will be asked to sign a consent form.

All patients will start PN after normalization of the following electrolytes potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus according to standard. Premixed PN formula, Olimel N9E will be started at a rate of 45 mL per hour for all patients on day 1 of PN support. After the routine assessment by pharmacists, the PN rate will be increased at an increment of 10 mL per hour on daily basis, representing the target goal of protein of 2 gm per kg according to the ideal body weight (IBW) , is achieved. Patients enrolled in the study will be followed while on PN support until cessation of PN or after 30 days of support have elapsed.

All patients will get their potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus levels assessed daily in the morning for the first 7 days of PN initiation. After the first week of PN support, electrolytes will be assessed at a minimum of three times a week thereafter while on PN. High electrolyte levels that develop on the following day of their respective low levels and corrected with bolus will not be considered as induced by PN.

Patients who develop hyperphosphatemia, hypermagnesemia, hyperkalaemia will get their PN stopped immediately and replaced with dextrose 10% water solution to run at 50 mL per hour till 21:00.Premixed PN will commence again at the same rate of the corresponding day. Patients who develop a second episode of any hyperphosphatemia, hypermagnesemia, or hyperkalaemia on the preceding day obtained from a blood sample will be shifted to the compounded PN.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

    Serum phosphate level of > 1.45 mmol/L, serum potassium level > 5.0 mmol/L, and serum magnesium level > 1.0 mmol/L.

    Measured: Until cessation of parenteral nutritional support or after 30 days of PN support have elapsed.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Rate of high serum levels of phosphate, magnesium, calcium, and potassium.

    serum phosphate level of > 1.45 mmol/L, serum potassium level > 5.0 mmol/L, and serum magnesium level > 1.0 mmol/L

    Measured: Until cessation of parenteral nutritional support or after 30 days of PN support have elapsed

  2. Risk factors associated with the development of hyperphosphatemia

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Saudi Arabia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of shifting of Olimel N9E premixed formula to compounded PN secondary to the development of elevated electrolyte levels in surgical patients receiving PN. (time frame: Until cessation of parenteral nutritional support or after 30 days of PN support have elapsed.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04256369, which also lists 19 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
