ESPEN guideline on chronic intestinal failure in adults - Update 2023.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: In 2016, ESPEN published the guideline for Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) in adults. An updated version of ESPEN guidelines on CIF due to benign disease in adults was devised in order to incorporate new evidence since the publication of the previous ESPEN guidelines. METHODS: The grading system of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) was used to grade the literature. Recommendations were graded according to the levels of evidence available as A (strong), B (conditional), 0 (weak) and Good practice points (GPP). The recommendations of the 2016 guideline (graded using the GRADE system) which were still valid, because no studies supporting an update were retrieved, were reworded and re-graded accordingly. RESULTS: The recommendations of the 2016 guideline were reviewed, particularly focusing on definitions, and new chapters were included to devise recommendations on IF centers, chronic enterocutaneous fistulas, costs of IF, caring for CIF patients during pregnancy, transition of patients from pediatric to adult centers. The new guideline consist of 149 recommendations and 16 statements which were voted for consensus by ESPEN members, online in July 2022 and at conference during the annual Congress in September 2022. The Grade of recommendation is GPP for 96 (64.4%) of the recommendations, 0 for 29 (19.5%), B for 19 (12.7%), and A for only five (3.4%). The grade of consensus is "strong consensus" for 148 (99.3%) and "consensus" for one (0.7%) recommendation. The grade of consensus for the statements is "strong consensus" for 14 (87.5%) and "consensus" for two (12.5%). CONCLUSIONS: It is confirmed that CIF management requires complex technologies, multidisciplinary and multiprofessional activity, and expertise to care for the underlying gastrointestinal disease and to provide HPN support. Most of the recommendations were graded as GPP, but almost all received a strong consensus.

Guía Práctica EsPEN: nutrición enteral domiciliaria / ESPEN practical guideline: Home enteral nutrition

Esta guía práctica de la European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) proporciona información a médicos, enfermeras, dietistas, farmacéuticos, cuidadores y otros proveedores de nutrición enteral domiciliaria (NED) de forma concisa, sobre las indicaciones y contraindicaciones de la NED, así como sobre su administración y seguimiento. Esta guía también ofrece información a los pacientes interesados que necesiten NED. La nutrición parenteral domiciliaria no está incluida, pero se abordará en otra guía de la ESPEN. La guía se basa en la guía científica de la ESPEN publicada anteriormente, que consta de 61 recomendaciones (que se han reproducido y renumerado), junto con los comentarios asociados (que se han resumido en relación a la guía científica). Se indican los grados de evidencia y los niveles de consenso. La ESPEN encargó y financió la guía y seleccionó también a los miembros del grupo.(AU)

This ESPEN practical guideline will inform physicians, nurses, dieticians, pharmacists, caregivers and other home enteral nutrition (HEN) providersin a concise way about the indications and contraindications for HEN, as well as its implementation and monitoring. This guideline will also informinterested patients requiring HEN. Home parenteral nutrition is not included but will be addressed in a separate ESPEN guideline. The guideline isbased on the ESPEN scientific guideline published before, which consists of 61 recommendations that have been reproduced and renumbered,along with the associated commentaries that have been shorted compared to the scientific guideline. Evidence grades and consensus levels areindicated. The guideline was commissioned and financially supported by ESPEN and the members of the guideline group were selected by ESPEN.(AU)

ESPEN practical guideline: Home parenteral nutrition.

This guideline will inform physicians, nurses, dieticians, pharmacists, caregivers and other home parenteral nutrition (HPN) providers, as well as healthcare administrators and policy makers, about appropriate and safe HPN provision. This guideline will also inform patients requiring HPN. The guideline is based on previous published guidelines and provides an update of current evidence and expert opinion; it consists of 71 recommendations that address the indications for HPN, central venous access device (CVAD) and infusion pump, infusion catheter and CVAD site care, nutritional admixtures, program monitoring and management. Meta-analyses, systematic reviews and single clinical trials based on clinical questions were searched according to the PICO format. The evidence was evaluated and used to develop clinical recommendations implementing Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network methodology. The guideline was commissioned and financially supported by ESPEN and members of the guideline group were selected by ESPEN.
