Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The aim of the study is to asses efficiency and safety of use of Omegaven emulsion in comparison with Lipofundin LCT/MCT in treatment of parenteral nutrition – associated liver disease in children with bowel dysfunction;Secondary Objective: To asses the influence of studied lipid emulsion on growth and nutritional status assessed by changes in the anthropometric measurement;Primary end point(s): The primary study outcome is the incidence of cholestasis reversal defined as serum level of direct bilirubin measurement < 2mg/dl.
