Stability Study and Clinical Evaluation of Lipid Injectable Emulsion in Parenteral Nutrition Admixtures Used for Preterm Neonates.

PN admixtures containing 4-oil ILE were stable at 25 °C and showed instability at 37 °C. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the temperature during administration of PN admixtures at 25 °C. PN admixtures were well tolerated and safe over a period of 8 days while providing a balanced fatty acid supply. Tight monitoring of serum triglyceride level is essential, particularly in neonates of low birth weight and/or young gestational age, to avoid hypertriglyceridemia. Hence, the use of these PN admixtures is expected to be beneficial in terms of being cost-effective and reducing the contamination risks.
