The dose of investigational drug (study treatment), as well as all other components of the overall nutritional regimen is solely at the discretion of the Investigator. It is assumed the Investigator will use sound medical judgement, follow institutional standards of care regarding the nutrition provided to each patient, and review applicable prescribing information indicating the maximum and recommended dose of Omegaven of 1 g/kg/day infused intravenously over 8 to 24 hours as long as the infusion rate does not exceed 1.5 mL/kg/hour.

Interventions

Omegaven® (fish oil triglycerides) Injectable Emulsion

Pediatric patients Pediatric patients with new-onset PNAC

Drug: Omegaven® (fish oil triglycerides) Injectable Emulsion Dose, frequency and duration is a decision of the Investigator

Primary outcome measure

  • Incidence of essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) [ Time Frame: Up to week 56 ]
