Complete Shielding of Multivitamins to Reduce Toxic Peroxides in the Parenteral Nutrition: A Pilot Study

The MV solution is delivered from producing companies in amber vials. The MV will be sampled by the pharmacy technician in a syringe that is photo-protected with a white label indicating the subject study name, protocol number and the infusion rate. The MV will be transported to the unit in the same photo-protected syringe. In the neonatal unit, this syringe will be installed in the pump and connected to photo-protected extension duration.

This group will receive the standard practice of PN compounding in the pharmacy followed by infusion in standard infusion kit available in Sainte-Justine's Hospital.
