Popis: | Background Despite advances in the medical management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a subset of patients may require extensive surgery, leading to short-bowel syndrome/intestinal failure requiring long-term home parenteral nutrition (PN) or customized intravenous fluid (IVF) support. Our aim was to further define the characteristics of IBD patients requiring home PN/IVF. Methods This is an observational study from a prospective IBD research registry. Patients receiving long-term home PN/IVF support during 2009-2015 were identified and compared with remaining IBD patients. Demographics, surgical history, smoking, narcotic use, IBD treatment, healthcare charges, and presence of biomarkers were reviewed. The IBD-PN group was stratified into 3 groups based on median healthcare charges. Results Of 2359 IBD patients, there were 25 (1%, 24 with Crohn's disease) who required home PN/IVF, and 250 randomly selected IBD patients matched for disease type formed the control population. Median duration of PN use was 27 months (interquartile range, 11-66). PN use was significantly associated with smoking, narcotic use, IBD-related operations, and lower quality-of-life scores. Among IBD-PN patients, 7 of 25 (28%, 3 after use of teduglutide) were able to successfully discontinue this modality. Median healthcare charges in the IBD-PN group were $51,456 annually. Median charges in the controls were $3427. Period prevalence mortality was 11.5% in IBD-PN and 3.8% in controls. Conclusions IBD patients requiring long-term home PN/IVF support are a small minority in the present era of immunomodulator/biologic therapy. These refractory patients have a 15-fold increase in annual median healthcare charges compared with control IBD patients. |
