Nutriflex 70/240 is intended for administration only in the central veins.
The temperature of the solution to be introduced must correspond to room temperature.
The preparation of the preparation Nutriflex 70/240 for use
Nutriflex 70/240 is a two-chamber container, the chambers of which are separated by a partition. One chamber is filled with a solution of amino acids with electrolytes, and the other - a solution of glucose with electrolytes.
Immediately before the onset of parenteral administration, solutions of amino acids with electrolytes and glucose with electrolytes should be mixed. To do this you need:
- remove from the container an external plastic bag,
- unfold and put it on a firm flat surface (on the table),
- press two hands on one of the chambers of the container until the septum separates the two chambers,
- gently mix the contents of the container.
After mixing, the preparation is ready for use.
The device of a two-chamber container allows aseptic mixing of amino acid solutions, dextrose and, if necessary, fat emulsion, which can be added through a special port located on the container from above.
To introduce a fat emulsion into a container, a Nutriflex transfer set can be used.
If you need to add other components to the preparation, for example, electrolytes, you need to use an additional port located at the bottom. All ingredients should be added in accordance with the rules of asepsis and their compatibility with each other.
Doses and the speed of administration are selected according to individual needs.
Adults and children from 14 years of age
The maximum daily dose 25 l / kg body weight, which corresponds to 1.75, g amino acids / kg body weight and 6.0 g of dextrose / kg of body weight.
In the case of disturbed glucose oxidation due to hypoxia or multiple organ failure in the post-operative or post-traumatic period, the dose of dextrose administered should be selected so that the normal level of glucose in the blood is maintained. In order to prevent the development of hyperglycemia, continuous monitoring of the glucose concentration in the blood is recommended.
Maximum injection rate
1.0 ml / kg body weight / hour, which corresponds to 0.07 g amino acids / kg body weight / hour and 0.24 g dextrose / kg body weight / hour.
For a patient with a body weight of 70 kg, this corresponds to a maximum infusion rate of 70 ml / h, an amino acid injection rate of 5 g / h, a rate of dextrose 17 g / h.
Children
The following doses are averaged. The dose should be selected in accordance with the child's age, stage and severity of the disease. If necessary, additional administration of a solution of dextrose and fat emulsion is possible.
For children from 2 to 5 years:
21 ml / kg body weight / day, corresponding to 1.47 g of amino acids / kg of body weight / day and 5.04 g of dextrose / kg of body weight / day.
For children from 5 to 14 years:
14 ml / kg of body weight / day, corresponding to 0.98 g of amino acids / kg of body weight / day and 3.36 g of dextrose / kg of body weight / day.
Maximum injection rate
1 ml / kg of body weight / hour, which corresponds to 0.07 g of amino acids / kg of body weight / hour and 0.24 g of dextrose / kg of body weight / hour.
If higher doses are required, it is necessary to take into account the existing limitations on the maximum daily volume of the fluid administered depending on the age:
- for children from 2 to 5 years 80-100 ml / kg of body weight,
- for children from 5 to 10 years 60 - 80 ml / kg body weight,
- for children from 10 to 14 years 50 - 70 ml / kg of body weight.
Duration of application
Duration of application of the preparation Nutriflex 70/240 in accordance with the indications is not limited. In the case of prolonged use, it is necessary to ensure the introduction of essential fatty acids, electrolytes, trace elements and vitamins in appropriate quantities.
