Abstract

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of amino acid mixtures on incidence and severity of total parenteral nutrition associated-cholestasis(PNAC) in very low birth weight infants. Methods : Retrospective review of 63 very low birth weight infants(birth weight ${\leq}1,500g$) who received total parenteral nutrition(TPN) in our neonatal intensive care unit from January 2000 to December 2004 was performed. Patients were divided into 2 groups : Group I(n=32, Jan 2000-Jun 2002) and Group II(n=31, Jul 2002-Dec 2004), where infants in Group II received taurine and glutamic acid-rich amino acid mixtures. PNAC was defined as serum direct bilirubin(DB) level greater than 2.0 mg/dL. The incidence and severity of PNAC were compared between these groups. Results : The incidence of PNAC was significantly lower in Group II than in Group I(21.9% vs 6.5%, P<0.148). Maximum and mean DB levels were also significantly lower in Group II(P<0.05). Conclusion : The incidence and severity of PNAC in very low birth weight infants may be reduced with different composition of amino acid mixtures in TPN. Further prospective randomized controlled studies are needed to determine an ideal composition of acid mixtures to prevent the development of PNAC.

목 적 : 극소 저출생 체중아에서 총정맥영양에 의한 담즙정체는 중요한 합병증 중 하나이다. 총정맥영양에 의한 담즙정체에 영양을 미치는 인자들은 여러 가지가 있으며, 그중 아미노산의 조성이 총정맥영양을 시행 받은 극소 저출생 체중아의 담즙정체 발생에 영향을 주는지 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2000년 1월부터 2004년 12월까지 동아대학교의료원 신생아 중환자실에 입원한 극소 저출생 체중아 중에서 일주일이상 총정맥영양을 시행 받은 환아 63명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 2000년 1월부터 2002년 6월까지의 연구 대상을 제1군으로, 2002년 7월부터 2004년 12월까지의 연구대상은 제1군과는 cysteine, tyrosine, taurine, glutamate 등의 성분이 차이가 있는 아미노산 제제를 사용하여 제2군으로 분류하였다. 제1군과 제2군의 임상적 특징과 총정맥영양에 의한 담즙정체의 빈도를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 제1군(n=32)과 제2군(n=31)의 재태연령($29.7{\pm}2.7$주, $29.5{\pm}2.8$주), 출생체중($1,195.6{\pm}200.4g$, $1,177.0{\pm}224.0g$) 및 총정맥영양 시작시기($16.1{\pm}8.5$일, $14.8{\pm}7.7$일), 총정맥영양의 기간($25.7{\pm}13.5$일, $25.4{\pm}12.1$일), 제공된 아미노산의 양($1.45{\pm}0.49$g/kg/일, $1.65{\pm}0.89$ g/kg/일), 완전장관영양 도달시기($59.9{\pm}23.2$일, $61.0{\pm}18.0$ 일)에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 총정맥영양과 관련된 담즙정체의 빈도는 제1군은 7례(21.9%), 제2군은 2례(6.5 %)로 제2군에서 감소되는 경향을 보였으나 통계학적 의미는 없었다(P=0.148). 두 군 간의 최고 직접 빌리루빈 수치($1.62{\pm}1.18mg/dL$, $1.04{\pm}1.05mg/dL$, P=0.046)와 평균 직접 빌리루빈 수치($0.78{\pm}0.46mg/dL$, $0.52{\pm}0.29mg/dL$, P=0.012)는 각각 제2군에서 의미 있게 낮았다. 결 론 : 총정맥영양을 시행 받은 극소 저출생 체중아에서 생기는 총정맥영양에 관련된 담즙정체를 비교한 결과, 아미노산 조성의 차이에 따라 담즙정체의 발생 빈도에 차이가 있었으나 통계학적 유의성은 없었고, 직접 빌리루빈 수치는 의미 있게 감소하였다. 그러나 좀 더 많은 연구 대상을 통한 연구가 필요하리라 생각한다.
