Summary

This study looks at a device called RELiZORB that pre-digests fat in tube feedings for children with short bowel syndrome who rely on IV nutrition. The goal is to see if it is safe and helps children absorb nutrients better, possibly reducing their need for IV nutrition. About 32 children will use the device for an extra 90 days after a previous study.
