Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Summary
Brief summary
Fat emulsions are an essential part of parenteral nutrition (PN) combining a high energy load with an essential fatty acid (EFA) intake.The primary purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of new fish oil based intravenous fat emulsion (SMOFlipid) as compared to traditional olive oil based intravenous fat emulsion (Clinoleic). This study will specifically look at plasma and red cell fatty acid levels particularly Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) which plays an important role in development and vision of newborn babies and also oxidative strss levels (F2-isoprostanes) before and after the intervention in a randomised controlled trial.
