Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of the investigational product SmofKabiven extra Nitrogen in patients requiring parenteral nutrition (PN) to achieve the target protein dose. The cumulative target protein dose is 6.2 g per kg of body weight (BW) over the five study treatment days, with 1.0 g/kg BW on Study Day 1 and 1.3 g/kg BW per day on Study Days 2-5; the target caloric intake is 15 kcal/kg BW on Study Day 1 and 20 kcal/kg BW/day on Study Days 2-5, following the recommendation of the ESPEN guideline on clinical nutrition in the intensive care unit 2019 regarding a slow-ramp up of calories during the first week of critical illness.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Age ≥ 18 years and \< 90 years, male or female
- •Critically ill, medical or surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patient
- •The patient was admitted to the ICU during the previous 24-48 hours and has a minimum expected ICU stay of 5 days after the completion of screening
- •Central venous access available for continuous infusion of the investigational product
- •Contraindication against EN or limited tolerance to EN; it is planned that the patient receives ≥75% of the total target caloric intake from PN during the 5 investigational product treatment days
- •Informed consent (signed and dated) from the patient to participate in this clinical trial. If the patient is unable to make a decision because of his/her critical condition, a decision regarding study enrolment is made at a case conference involving three physicians
Exclusion Criteria
- •Contraindication against PN or inability to receive PN via central venous access
- •The patient has received PN within the last 7 days before the start of screening
- •Body mass index (BMI) \<18.5 kg/m2 or \>35 kg/m2
- •Any severe, persistent blood coagulation disorder with uncontrolled bleeding
- •Any congenital errors of amino acid metabolism
- •Uncontrolled hyperglycaemia despite insulin treatment
- •Known hypersensitivity to fish, egg, soybean proteins, peanut proteins, or to any of the active ingredients or excipients contained in SmofKabiven extra Nitrogen
- •General contraindications to infusion therapy: acute pulmonary oedema, hyperhydration, and decompensated cardiac insufficiency
- •Severe renal insufficiency defined by the following criteria:
- •serum creatinine level \> 353.6 µmol/L, or
Arms & Interventions
SmofKabiven extra Nitrogen
The investigational product will be administered in a volume that provides the target caloric intake of 15 kcal/kg BW on Study Day 1 and 20 kcal/kg BW/day on Study Days 2 to 5. If calories are provided from other sources (e.g., enteral/oral nutrition/oral nutritional supplements or non-nutritional sources including glucose solution for drug dilution or propofol), the dose of the investigational product will be reduced accordingly to avoid calorie overload above the respective daily caloric targets.
Intervention: SmofKabiven extra Nitrogen
