Vitamin Preparation

The article "Evaluation of a Pediatric Multiple Vitamin Preparation For Total Parenteral Nutrition in Infants and Children" by Moore et al (Pediatrics 1986; 77:530-538) confused me. The study of vitamin levels is crucial to making recommendations, but why would the authors choose to give all premature infants 65% of the recommended dose for infants and children, when the package insert clearly states, "Infants less than 1 kg: the daily dose should not exceed 30% of the contents. Do not exceed this daily dose"?

Technical Challenges

Encapsulating Peritoneal Sclerosis (EPS) developed in an African American male who had been on Peritoneal Dialysis for nine years. During his hospitalization for peritonitis, he continued to clinically deteriorate with refractory abdominal pain, vomiting, and anorexia requiring Total Parenteral Nutrition. This case demonstrates the importance of prompt EPS diagnosis and the technical challenges associated with surgical treatment.
