- <p><strong>4.2 Posology and method of administration</strong></p>
<p><u>Posology</u></p>
<p>The appearance of the product after mixing the 3 chambers is a white emulsion.</p>
<p>The patient’s ability to eliminate lipids and metabolise nitrogen and glucose, and the nutritional requirements should govern the dosage and infusion rate, see section 4.4 – <em>please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information</em>.</p>
<p>The dose should be individualised to the patient’s clinical condition, body weight (bw), nutritional and energy requirements, adjusting dosage based upon additional oral/enteral intake.</p>
<p>The nitrogen requirements for maintenance of body protein mass depend on the patient’s condition (e.g. nutritional state and degree of catabolic stress or anabolism).</p>
<p><em>Adults</em></p>
<p>The requirements are 0.6–0.9 g amino acids/kg bw/day (0.10–0.15 g nitrogen/kg bw/day) in the normal nutritional state or in conditions with mild catabolic stress. In patients with moderate to high metabolic stress with or without malnutrition, the requirements are in the range of 0.9–1.6 g amino acids/kg bw/day (0.15–0.25 g nitrogen/kg bw/day). In some very special conditions (e.g. burns or marked anabolism) the nitrogen need may be even higher.</p>
<p>Dosage:<br>
The dosage range of 13–31 ml SmofKabiven Electrolyte Free/kg bw/day will provide 0.6–1.6 g amino acids/kg bw/day (corresponds to 0.10–0.25 g nitrogen/kg bw/day) and 14–35 kcal/kg bw/day of total energy (12–27 kcal/kg bw/day of non-protein energy). This covers the need of the majority of the patients. In obese patients the dose should be based on the estimated ideal weight.</p>
<p>Infusion rate:<br>
The maximum infusion rate for glucose is 0.25 g/kg bw/h, for amino acids 0.1 g/kg bw/h, and for lipids 0.15 g/kg bw/h.</p>
<p>The infusion rate should not exceed 2.0 ml/kg bw/h (corresponding to 0.10 g amino acids, 0.25 g glucose and 0.08 g lipids/kg bw/h). The recommended infusion period is 14–24 hours.</p>
<p>Maximum daily dose:<br>
The maximum daily dose varies with the clinical condition of the patient and may even change from day to day. The recommended maximum daily dose is 35 ml/kg bw/day.</p>
<p>The recommended maximum daily dose of 35 ml/kg bw/day will provide 1.8 g amino acids/kg bw/day (corresponding to 0.28 g nitrogen/kg bw/day), 4.5 g glucose/kg bw/day, 1.33 g lipids/kg bw/day and a total energy content of 39 kcal/kg bw/day (corresponding to 31 kcal/kg bw/day of non-protein energy).</p>
<p><em>Paediatric population</em></p>
<p><em>Children (2–11 years)</em></p>
<p>Dosage:<br>
The dose up to 35 ml/kg bw/day should be regularly adjusted to the requirements of the paediatric patient that varies more than in adult patients.</p>
<p>Infusion rate:<br>
The recommended maximum infusion rate is 2.4 ml/kg bw/h (corresponding to 0.12 g amino acids/kg/h, 0.30 g/glucose/kg/h and 0.09 g lipids/kg/h). At the recommended maximum infusion rate, do not use an infusion period longer than 14 hours 30 minutes, except in exceptional cases and with careful monitoring.</p>
<p>The recommended infusion period is 12–24 hours.</p>
<p>Maximum daily dose:<br>
The maximum daily dose varies with the clinical condition of the patient and may even change from day to day. The recommended maximum daily dose is 35 ml/kg bw/day.</p>
<p>The recommended maximum daily dose of 35 ml/kg bw/day will provide 1.8 g amino acids/kg bw/day (corresponding to 0.28 g nitrogen/kg bw/day), 4.5 g glucose/kg bw/day, 1.33 g lipids/kg bw/day and a total energy content of 39 kcal/kg bw/day (corresponding to 31 kcal/kg bw/day of non-protein energy).</p>
<p><em>Adolescents (12–16/18 years)</em></p>
<p>In adolescents, SmofKabiven Electrolyte Free can be used as in adults.</p>
<p><u>Method of administration</u><br>
Intravenous use, infusion into a central vein.</p>
<p>The five different package sizes of SmofKabiven Electrolyte Free are intended for patients with high, moderately increased or basal nutritional requirements. To provide total parenteral nutrition, trace elements, electrolytes and vitamins should be added to SmofKabiven Electrolyte Free according to the patient’s need.</p>
<p>For instructions on preparation of the medicinal product before administration, see section 6.6 – <em>please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information</em>.</p>
