Fish oil IV may rescue young livers damaged by Life-Saving nutrition
NCT ID NCT02929303
Summary
This program provides access to an intravenous fish oil treatment (Omegaven) for infants and children whose livers have been damaged by long-term IV nutrition. The goal is to see if replacing standard IV fats with this fish oil formula can reverse the liver injury. This allows children to continue receiving the nutrition they need until they can eat normally.
