Aim: to communicate HPN data obtained from the HPN registry of the NADYA-SENPE group (www.nadya-senpe.com) for the year 2017.Material and Methods: descriptive analysis of the data collected from adult and pediatric patients with HPN in the NADYA-SENPE group registry from January 1st, 2017 to December 31st, 2017.Results: there were 308 patients from 45 Spanish hospitals (54.5% women), 38 children and 270 adults, with 3,012 episodes, which represent a prevalence rate of 6.61 patients/million inhabitants/year 2017. The most frequent diagnosis in adults was "palliative cancer" (25.6%), followed by "others". In children, it was Hirschsprung's disease with six cases (15.8%). The first indication was short bowel syndrome in both children (55.3%) and adults (33.7%). The most frequently used type of catheter was tunneled in both children (73.4%) and adults (38.2%). Ending 81 episodes, the most frequent cause was death (62.9%) and transition to oral feeding (34.7%).Conclusions: the progressive increase of collaborating centers and professionals in the registry of patients receiving NPD is maintained. The main indications of HPN and the motive for ending have remained stable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Intestinal failure is being an entity with higher prevalence in the pediatric age, especially due to bowel resections causing the appearance of a short bowel syndrome. Objectives: To determine the prevalence and etiology of cases of short bowel syndrome (SIC) and Intestinal Failure (FI) existing in Andalusia. Analyze factors involved in evolution, the number of transplant patients and to know the time required to achieve enteral autonomy, studying whether there are differences in management between different participants. Methods: Multicenter retrospective descriptive observational study in which are collected data of patients diagnosed with short bowel syndrome or intestinal failure in 6 hospitals in Andalusia in the period from 1 January 2008 to 31 January 2014. Results: 25 patients. Average age at diagnosis 7.4 months. Average length of remnant intestine: 113.8 cm; 64% of patients with <75 cm length remaining intestine. We show that: the early introduction of enteral nutrition is a factor favoring the suspension of the NP (p = 0'033); and that the prevention of liver disease associated with parenteral nutrition (EHANP) is favored by: the use of fewer lipid Parenteral Nutrition (p = 0'008), a greater length of remaining intestine (p = 0'049 ), the early introduction of enteral nutrition (p = 0'009) and a lower gestational age (p = 0'006). Discussion: Early Introduction of NE is essential for intestinal adaptation, weaning from PN and avoid the appearance of EHANP. The use of low amounts of lipids prevents development of EHANP.
