Lucas’ healthcare professional: Elizabeth Loring, Specialist Dietitian, Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust (CNWL)
Born prematurely at 24 weeks, Lucas is one of a twin that has faced significant health challenges from birth, including cerebral palsy, chronic lung disease, hydrocephalus, visual impairment, hearing loss, and epilepsy. Additionally, he underwent surgical management for small bowel necrosis, an event that, despite intervention, resulted in lasting tolerance implications.
Based on a patient case study. The video footage shown is for representation purposes only and not an actual patient.
The decision to transition to a peptide-based enteral feed was made with a view to increasing Lucas’ calorie density, reducing feed volume, pump time, and alleviating vomiting symptoms. Once established, PaediaSure Peptide marked a turning point in Lucas’ feeding regimen, with reduced vomiting and support of a feeding pattern that suited the family so purees could be given at mealtimes alongside his sibling.
Discover the impact of the vicious cycle of malnutrition and malabsorption and the power of peptides in the treatment ofmalnourished children with compromised gastrointestinal function.
