  1. 0:06this PowerPoint will be discussing Total
  2. 0:08pereral Nutrition also referred to as
  3. 0:13tpn when we're looking at tpn we use it
  4. 0:16to replace interal intake in patients
  5. 0:18who can't ingest food nutrients through
  6. 0:20their GI track this tpn will provide
  7. 0:23calories protein fatty acids by the
  8. 0:25intravascular route to support life and
  9. 0:27it's going to maintain growth and
  10. 0:29development
  11. 0:37so who needs tpn tpn is needed in people
  12. 0:40with severe malnutrition individuals
  13. 0:43with Burns if they've had GI trauma
  14. 0:45prolong pancreatitis prolong ptic ilas
  15. 0:49cancer of the GI tract GI obstruction
  16. 0:52typically someone who is unable to eat
  17. 0:55via the GI track for longer than 5 to
  18. 0:57seven days they need to be considered
  19. 0:59for TP in this can be given in almost
  20. 1:02any location anywhere from the Intensive
  21. 1:04Care Unit Med surge unit long-term care
  22. 1:06facility or even the
  23. 1:13home so we use tpn when there is no
  24. 1:16other nutritional alternative other
  25. 1:18forms of administering nutrition such as
  26. 1:21the oral route or gastrointestinal tube
  27. 1:24need to be initiated first this is very
  28. 1:26very
  29. 1:28important
  30. 1:32so we know poor nutrition means if we
  31. 1:34have poor nutrition we know that we have
  32. 1:36poor wound healing we have an increased
  33. 1:38risk of um infection we have decreased
  34. 1:41production of white blood cells and red
  35. 1:43blood cells we have increased edema and
  36. 1:45skin breakdown and so all of this can go
  37. 1:48on if a person goes without food for
  38. 1:51more than five to seven days we need to
  39. 1:53really be considering our nutritional
  40. 1:55status of our
  41. 1:58patient so just some little facts um
  42. 2:01less than 600 calories per day when this
  43. 2:04happens a person will break down their
  44. 2:05own tissue the heart walk and thin
  45. 2:08you'll have decreased respiratory muscle
  46. 2:10function organs begin to atrophy we'll
  47. 2:13start to see decreased alumin production
  48. 2:16we'll see decreased glar filtration rate
  49. 2:18and the intestinal Bill decrease in size
  50. 2:20and numbered so if a person is able to
  51. 2:23eat but can't eat enough of course again
  52. 2:26poor nutrition will result um you can
  53. 2:28see a person that is already it become
  54. 2:31truly truly more compromised if these
  55. 2:34things
  56. 2:36occur so just a little bit of math and
  57. 2:39there's some note Pages for your
  58. 2:40enjoyment just to let you know that one
  59. 2:43liter of D5W only has Believe It or Not
  60. 2:46170 calories and a lot of us would like
  61. 2:49to think that it has much
  62. 2:54more this is an example of a bag of tpn
  63. 2:58um tpn Solutions have a variety of looks
  64. 3:00so just be aware of that and that's of
  65. 3:02course depending on the company that
  66. 3:04used to package the solution um min mini
  67. 3:07look like the picture that's on your
  68. 3:08screen they're usually one liter bag and
  69. 3:11on the Note Pages you're going to see
  70. 3:13that um what type of ingredients that a
  71. 3:17standard tpn formula would contain so
  72. 3:20everywhere from the amount of aminin
  73. 3:22it's got a lot of dextr in it some
  74. 3:24electrolytes some
  75. 3:26multivitamins now I need you to know
  76. 3:27that tpn is very very expensive
  77. 3:29expensive so we want to be careful with
  78. 3:31this and not let it hang past the
  79. 3:33expiration date and not let it um
  80. 3:36actually expire because a a bag of tpn
  81. 3:39can actually cost several hundred dollar
  82. 3:42so that that becomes very very important
  83. 3:44always be sure to check the expiration
  84. 3:46date on the bag because we don't want to
  85. 3:48hang one that expired because there's a
  86. 3:50lot of glucose in it and we know that
  87. 3:51the glucose the sugar is really a medium
  88. 3:54for bacterial
  89. 3:58growth
  90. 4:04a common additive to tpn is regular
  91. 4:06insulin youi patients have a very
  92. 4:09difficult time tolerating this 24-hour
  93. 4:11day high concentration glucose solution
  94. 4:14because what happens is the patient's
  95. 4:15pancreas must continually secrete
  96. 4:17insulin in order to utilize the glucose
  97. 4:19in the solution and to keep the blood
  98. 4:21glucose within normal range if a patient
  99. 4:24becomes hypoglycemic during the time
  100. 4:26they're receiving tpn insulin is going
  101. 4:28to be ordered and be are um and added to
  102. 4:31the solution in the pharmacy
  103. 4:32Additionally the patient's going to be
  104. 4:34placed probably on a sliding skill
  105. 4:35insulin based on their blood glucose AC
  106. 4:38Che values if the patient on tpn is NPO
  107. 4:41and this is fairly typical of patients
  108. 4:43receiving tpn their blood glucose CHS
  109. 4:45are usually ordered every six hours
  110. 4:47instead of before meals and at bedtime
  111. 4:50they would try to do this as if they
  112. 4:51were actually
  113. 4:58eating
  114. 5:05there is a um great risk for infection
  115. 5:08so this slide is just basically showing
  116. 5:10you how tpn is prepared under laminer
  117. 5:12airflow hood and this is to decrease the
  118. 5:14chance of contamination because there's
  119. 5:16very very high risk of infection when
  120. 5:18you're giving tpn now just for your
  121. 5:21information there is also a periperal
  122. 5:23form of Parental nutrition and it is
  123. 5:25actually called peripheral parental
  124. 5:27nutrition and or PPN
  125. 5:30this is used if the patient does not
  126. 5:32have a central Venus access device and
  127. 5:34for whatever reason it is and PPN can
  128. 5:38actually be used through a peripheral IV
  129. 5:41line and so just want to to let you
  130. 5:44understand
  131. 5:55that remember whenever it's possible all
  132. 5:58efforts should be made um to use the gut
  133. 6:00for feeding because tpn has a greater
  134. 6:03risk of complication especially
  135. 6:05infection over interal feedings and Tube
  136. 6:10feedings so what are your goals of tpn
  137. 6:13obviously to improve nutritional status
  138. 6:15to establish a positive nitrogen balance
  139. 6:18to preserve muscle mass to promote
  140. 6:20weight gain and to support healing so
  141. 6:22just the the basics that that make a lot
  142. 6:24of sense to
  143. 6:27you as a Remer we need to give tpn it's
  144. 6:32it must be administered through a
  145. 6:33central Venus access device or what we
  146. 6:35call a cvad um this is just an example
  147. 6:38of a triple Lumen catheter any of the
  148. 6:40ports can be used for TPM um the other
  149. 6:43ports can be used for other medications
  150. 6:46antibiotics blood products so on and so
  151. 6:48forth the reason the central line is
  152. 6:50necessary is because the high osmolarity
  153. 6:52concentration of the solution if you
  154. 6:55gave the solution through a pural IV you
  155. 6:57would um cause irritation in in that
  156. 6:59line fitis would occur in your patient
  157. 7:02so very important to remember this
  158. 7:11component um sometimes tpn is given
  159. 7:14through a tunnel catheter these
  160. 7:16catheters are generally placed for
  161. 7:18long-term use and the patient may even
  162. 7:19go home with these of course a tunnel
  163. 7:22catheter is more difficult to insert but
  164. 7:23less likely to be the source of systemic
  165. 7:25infection so and these of course can
  166. 7:27come in double intol as well
  167. 7:36this is a example of lipids lipids are
  168. 7:39commonly used as part of the regimen
  169. 7:42with
  170. 7:42tpn um if we go back to the former
  171. 7:45slides and we look at the components of
  172. 7:48the tpn solution we're going to see that
  173. 7:51of course something is missing and what
  174. 7:53is missing is fat we all have to have
  175. 7:55fat in our not to survive a very long
  176. 7:58time and what I lipids can do is they
  177. 8:01can provide approximately one calorie
  178. 8:03per CC and lipids are the only solution
  179. 8:06that can be piggybacked into tpn without
  180. 8:08a specific doctor's order now before
  181. 8:11hanging the lipids you need to look
  182. 8:12closely at the solution it should have a
  183. 8:15homogeneous look it really will look
  184. 8:18like milk make sure it doesn't have an
  185. 8:20oily layer on top now you will run the
  186. 8:23lipids through the secondary line while
  187. 8:25the tpn primary line is going you want
  188. 8:28to make sure they're no filters no
  189. 8:31filters below the lipid drip chamber
  190. 8:34because if this is so the filter will
  191. 8:36Clogg always run the solutions
  192. 8:38concurrent you never want to stop tpn
  193. 8:41abruptly because hypog hypoglycemia can
  194. 8:44result and I've got some slides and I'll
  195. 8:46tell you a little more on that later
  196. 8:48patients can have an allergic reaction
  197. 8:50to the lipids so you must always always
  198. 8:54always monitor for an aaxis when you're
  199. 8:56administering lipids the lipids may
  200. 8:58contain sweet beans a SE flower oil and
  201. 9:01egg yolks all of which we know can cause
  202. 9:03allergic reactions in certain
  203. 9:05individuals so what you do is you begin
  204. 9:08by taking and recording your Baseline
  205. 9:10bottles you're going to hang the 500 CC
  206. 9:12bottle of lipids and run the lipids at a
  207. 9:14rate of one cc per minute which is of
  208. 9:17course 60 CC's per hour on the infusion
  209. 9:19pump you want to use a larger filter
  210. 9:22than normal because the lipid particles
  211. 9:24are too large and would actually clog in
  212. 9:27the smaller
  213. 9:28filter you then you'll check your Vital
  214. 9:30Signs every 10 to 15 minutes times three
  215. 9:33and then at the end of 30 minutes uh if
  216. 9:35vital signs are compared to Baseline you
  217. 9:37will increase that rate to 83 CC's per
  218. 9:39hour in a patient that can tolerate this
  219. 9:42and that solution runs over six hours so
  220. 9:45um lipids can also run via periperal
  221. 9:47line and Light
  222. 9:58tpn
  223. 10:00now some facilities use a solution that
  224. 10:02comines the tpn and the lipids and this
  225. 10:04is a picture where both are in one bag
  226. 10:08so just kind of to let you understand
  227. 10:10that philosophy when we mix these
  228. 10:12together one bag it decreases the chance
  229. 10:14of bacterial contamination when lipids
  230. 10:17are piggyback of force into the tpn
  231. 10:19because anytime you break the IV line
  232. 10:21you run the risk of
  233. 10:28contamination
  234. 10:30just a picture of a three in one mixture
  235. 10:33being infused note the infusion pump tpn
  236. 10:36and lipid should always be delivered
  237. 10:38with an IV pump because we want to
  238. 10:40maintain a constant drip rate which will
  239. 10:42help prevent hypoglycemia and
  240. 10:50hyperium so let's talk about the body's
  241. 10:52response to the high glucose load let's
  242. 10:55talk about hypoglycemia when tpn is
  243. 10:58initiated we're going to do ACU checks
  244. 11:01at least every six hours for The First
  245. 11:0348 hours and then depending on the
  246. 11:05patient response these can be
  247. 11:07discontinued or may have to be continued
  248. 11:09and monitored so tpn is going to be
  249. 11:11given by an infusion pump and we're
  250. 11:13going to start slowly and we're going to
  251. 11:15build up to a rate that fits the
  252. 11:17patient's needs so example tpn usually
  253. 11:20begins at 50 CC's per hour and then
  254. 11:23maybe increased to 75 to 100 to 125 and
  255. 11:28to even 15 D per hour over time some
  256. 11:31patients of course may never go past 50
  257. 11:33CC's an hour if they have trouble
  258. 11:34handling the excess flood volume and
  259. 11:37then other patients easily tolerate the
  260. 11:38150 cc per hour what we do by starting
  261. 11:42slowly is we allow the body to adjust
  262. 11:44the glucose load so the pancreas can
  263. 11:46begin to release the appropriate amount
  264. 11:48of insulin to keep the blood glucose
  265. 11:50controlled remember the body may have
  266. 11:53difficulty adjusting to the constant
  267. 11:54glucose infusion so watch carefully for
  268. 11:57signs of hypoglycemia such as of course
  269. 11:59polyura confusion Lethy dehydration on
  270. 12:03and on and on certainly not everyone
  271. 12:05becomes hypoglycemic from tpn it is a
  272. 12:07very common side
  273. 12:11effect okay we can have an opposite
  274. 12:13problem with a blood clue POS called
  275. 12:15hypoglycemia
  276. 12:18obviously um why does this happen the
  277. 12:21patient may develop hypoglycemia at the
  278. 12:22fusion rate suddenly drops so an example
  279. 12:26might be the pump accidentally gets
  280. 12:27turned off the ey the infiltrates of
  281. 12:30course um that can't happen because why
  282. 12:33IV is not going to infiltrate because
  283. 12:35you're giving it through a central line
  284. 12:38or what if we get ready to hang the next
  285. 12:40bag of tpn and realize the patient bag's
  286. 12:43not available somebody forgot to ordered
  287. 12:45from Pharmacy or Pharmacy forgot to send
  288. 12:47it or there's something wrong with the
  289. 12:49bag when you get it and so now you don't
  290. 12:51have your tpn so it suddenly stop um we
  291. 12:54can't just go to the pixus and get
  292. 12:56another bag and if we hang
  293. 12:59um normal saline or or just even D5W the
  294. 13:04patient's going to suddenly get
  295. 13:06hypoglycemic because remember the
  296. 13:08pancreas has been secreting insulin like
  297. 13:10a madman and suddenly we have no glucose
  298. 13:12to match the insulin
  299. 13:14secretion and so um what's going to
  300. 13:16happen then is your blood glucose is
  301. 13:18going to drop dramatically this is one
  302. 13:20reason why we run tpn on an infusion
  303. 13:23pump maintaining constant rate and this
  304. 13:26this really helps stop those glucose
  305. 13:27changes
  306. 13:29now when the tpn is ready to be DCd
  307. 13:31we're going to always taper it down over
  308. 13:33a period of time so that the endogenous
  309. 13:36insulin production can slow down before
  310. 13:38the tpn is stopped so remember that if
  311. 13:42by some chance you your patient's
  312. 13:45receiving
  313. 13:46tpn and there's the bags run dry you
  314. 13:50will hang a bag of
  315. 13:52d10 you'll call um this will be in the
  316. 13:55pixus system that's the highest glucose
  317. 13:57concentration that we have about
  318. 13:58available on the floor you're going to
  319. 14:00call the pharmacy stat explain the
  320. 14:02situation so that they can quickly get a
  321. 14:04bag hung and during this time frame
  322. 14:06you're going to need to really closely
  323. 14:08watch for signs and symptoms of
  324. 14:09hypoglycemia in your
  325. 14:21patient we've mentioned a little bit
  326. 14:24about infection being a very big concern
  327. 14:27um we want to know that of course we
  328. 14:29know glucose is an excellent medium for
  329. 14:31bacterial growth we will do dressing
  330. 14:33changes according to hospital policy we
  331. 14:35don't want to break the IV line for
  332. 14:37anything um other than the lipid
  333. 14:38infusions and of course when we're using
  334. 14:41TPM the dressing will be changed every
  335. 14:4424 hours as always make sure the Central
  336. 14:47Line dressing is intact if anything um
  337. 14:50is wrong with that you'll will do a
  338. 14:52sterile dressing
  339. 14:54change don't let a b bag hang longer
  340. 14:56than 24 hours because all these viously
  341. 14:59that would be a great medium for
  342. 15:00bacterial growth remember that these are
  343. 15:02mixed in Pharmacy under Lam or air flow
  344. 15:04Hood to decrease the chance of infection
  345. 15:06and we have to continue that dilligence
  346. 15:08on the nursing unit we need to watch our
  347. 15:11patients for signs and symptoms of
  348. 15:12sepsis this would in include fever
  349. 15:15decrease blood pressure changeing mental
  350. 15:17status and look for infection at the
  351. 15:19catheter
  352. 15:27site
  353. 15:31some other stuff that we want to think
  354. 15:32about take tpn out of the bag um one
  355. 15:36hour before hanging always check the
  356. 15:39label um oral hygiene is very very
  357. 15:42important in all patients but even more
  358. 15:44so in individuals receiving
  359. 15:47tpn cold tpn um need we need to hang tpn
  360. 15:51of course at room temperature while we
  361. 15:52talk about taking out the refrigerator
  362. 15:54because cold tpn can cause basil spasm
  363. 15:57chest pain and hypothermia do not put
  364. 15:59the bag in the microwave or run it under
  365. 16:01hot water because these actions cause
  366. 16:03contamination and of course remember
  367. 16:05room temperature tpn is
  368. 16:20best
  369. 16:21documentation um obviously careful
  370. 16:24documentation of Ino and daily weight
  371. 16:27keep track of this we need to know that
  372. 16:29tpn is effective we want them to least
  373. 16:32be maintaining their weight and in some
  374. 16:33instances the goal is actually even to
  375. 16:35gain one to two pounds per week it just
  376. 16:37depends on the goal for the patient um
  377. 16:41in your
  378. 16:42documentation we want to be sure that we
  379. 16:46look at um when we hang it and how long
  380. 16:49that the TPA a TPA I'm sorry tpn has
  381. 16:52been
  382. 16:55hanging
