This video features Dr. Catherine Larson-Nath, Pediatric Gastroenterologist, Director of the Intestinal Rehabilitation Program and Director of the Pediatric GI, Hepatology, and Nutrition Fellowship Program at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Larson-Nath interest in nutrition began in medical school, and she shares how she was able to tailor her fellowship for nutrition training.

Dr. Larson-Nath incorporates rounds time in the ICU with her multidisciplinary nutrition team on “Weight Wednesdays.” Besides clinical work, she is working on research using ultrasound to look at patients’ body compositions to see the impact of nutrition interventions. She credits ASPEN for providing her with mentors and opportunities to grow professionally. She has worked on many committees, including the Certified Nutrition Support Clinician committee, where she was able to advocate for pediatric questions on the exam. She’s currently the president of the Clinical Practice Committee, an associate editor for NCP, and is working on the next edition of the Pediatric Handbook. She laughs that it was ASPEN who introduced her to a fellow physician at her university and how it resulted in a new project.

In this video, Dr. Matthew Kappus, MD, Medical Director of Living Donation, Liver Transplantation and Assistant Professor of Medicine, Gastroenterology and Transplant Hepatology at Duke University School of Medicine shares how his search to fill a void in treating the frailty of liver patients lead him to nutrition. It was a journey he had to figure out on his own, since there is no formalized pathway to nutrition. He uses the liver frailty index to compare and contrast the effectiveness of interventions, whether its nutrition intervention or physical therapy intervention. Dr. Kappas stresses that nutrition should not be an afterthought for it is not understood by all, and often overlooked. Nutrition affects every practice and it’s important for young physicians to have an open mind and find creative ways to incorporate nutrition into their practice.

With an adequate supply of multivitamins now available in the U.S. market, it is important to ensure that your clinical practice for dosing multivitamins for your patients on parenteral nutrition (PN) meets the standard of care. This podcast discusses the appropriate dosing of multivitamins in pediatric and adult PN patients when rationing is not needed. It addresses misconceptions on the adequacy of substandard dosing and uses patient cases to demonstrate the importance of consistency in dosing and delivery of vitamins to patients on PN.
