Title: [Fat-emulsions and acid-base balance in neonates of low weight at birth (author's transl)]. Author: Melichar V, Wolf H, Jirsová V, Vondrácek J. Journal: Klin Padiatr; 1975 Sep; 187(5):443-7. PubMed ID: 240960. Abstract: The influence of a single intravenous infusion of triglycerides (1 g triglyceride per kg body weight) on the acid base equilibrium was investigated in 16 newborn infants with low birth weight during the first days of age. No changes of pH, PCO2 and standard bicarbonate, base excess, buffer base and actuelle bicarbonate, respectively, were observed. Fat emulsions can be used, therefore, without hazards in the parenteral feeding of newborn infants.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
