Improved Quality of Life in Children With Intestinal Failure
Improved Quality of Life in Children With Intestinal Failure - a Randomised Intervention Trial

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Quality of life, gastrointestinal symptoms and family impact are measured using validated forms for four weeks before intervention phase 1, at start-up and after phase 1, as well as after phase 2. Stool samples are collected at the same time points. Weight, height is measured and blood tests are collected at the start and end of phases 1 and 2. Data on diet and nutritional treatment are collected at the start and end of the two phases. The stool samples are analyzed for short fatty acids (marker for good intestinal health), the composition of the intestinal flora and inflammation markers. Blood samples are analyzed for infection markers, intestinal health markers and nutritional markers. Nutritional data are analyzed for nutrient content and the dependence on nutritional support is calculated.
The investigators expect that the study will lead to an improved quality of life for the patient group through increased tolerance to food in the intestine, reduced antibiotic use and reduction of gastrointestinal symptoms. The project is patient-oriented.
