Summary

This study looks at a device called RELiZORB that attaches to a feeding tube to pre-digest fat, making it easier for children with short bowel syndrome to absorb nutrients. The goal is to see if using it daily for 90 days can safely reduce or eliminate the need for intravenous (IV) nutrition. The study involves 32 children who are already in a related trial.
