ABSTRACTBackground: Intravenous lipid emulsions (ILEs) were initially developed to provide parenteral nutrition.In recent years, ILE has emerged as a treatment for poisoning by local anesthetics and various otherdrugs. The dosing regimen for the clinical toxicology indications differs significantly from those used forparenteral nutrition. The evidence on the efficacy of ILE to reverse acute toxicity of diverse substancesconsists mainly of case reports and animal experiments. Adverse events to ILE are important to considerwhen clinicians need to make a risk/benefit analysis for this therapy. Methods: Multiple publicationdatabases were searched to identify reports of adverse effects associated with acute ILE administrationfor either treatment of acute poisoning or parenteral nutrition. Articles were selected based onpre-defined criteria to reflect acute use of ILE. Experimental studies and reports of adverse effects as acomplication of long-term therapy exceeding 14 days were excluded. Results: The search identified 789full-text articles, of which 114 met the study criteria. 27 were animal studies, and 87 were human stud-ies. The adverse effects associated with acute ILE administration included acute kidney injury, cardiacarrest, ventilation perfusion mismatch, acute lung injury, venous thromboembolism, hypersensitivity, fatembolism, fat overload syndrome, pancreatitis, extracorporeal circulation machine circuit obstruction,allergic reaction, and increased susceptibility to infection. Conclusion: The emerging use of ILE adminis-tration in clinical toxicology warrants careful attention to its potential adverse effects. The dosing regi-men and context of administration leading to the adverse events documented in this review are notgeneralizable to all clinical toxicology scenarios. Adverse effects seem to be proportional to the rate ofinfusion as well as total dose received. Further safety studies in humans and reporting of adverseevents associated with ILE administration at the doses advocated in current clinical toxicology literatureare needed.

Introduction
Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) has recently received muchattention in the treatment of acute local anesthetic toxicityand a variety of other non-local anesthetic poisonings. Manyclinicians may be unfamiliar with the likely adverse effects ofILE, particularly regarding its use in toxicological cases. Whileat least 90 published cases describe adverse effects associ-ated with antidotal use of ILE for various toxins, reportingbias (whether bias favoring publication of a novel event orbias favoring not publishing the complications of therapy)may result in inconsistent or disproportionate representationof the clinical effects of ILE as represented by these cases.The use of ILE in various forms has occurred for decades in
total parenteral nutrition (TPN), and this longer and broaderclinical experience may indicate likely events that may alsooccur with acute antidotal use of ILE.[1]
After IntralipidVR became readily available, reports ofadverse reactions associated with its use began to surface,despite assumptions about its safety compared with previousILE preparations. These adverse effects tended to be infre-quent and non-life-threatening, but they complicated therapy.Reactions related directly to ILE can occur within minutes tohours after infusion, or they can be delayed for weeks toyears with ongoing exposure to ILE, as is necessary with long-term parenteral nutrition.
Both the rate of infusion and the total dose infused areassociated with reactions to ILE. Guidelines for maximum

doses and rates of infusion have been established for nutri-tion support and are based on reported adverse eventssuch as dyspnea, cyanosis, flushing, hypercoagulability,hypertriglyceridemia and chest pain.[2] In adults, infusionfaster than the estimated maximum oxidation rate of1.2–1.7 mg/kg/min (for ILE 20%, this is 0.35–0.51 mL/kg/h or8.6–12.24 mL/kg/day) likely increases the risk of significantadverse events and is not recommended.[3–5]
Rapid reactions to ILE can transpire with any of the indica-tion for its use (i.e., nutrition, drug carrier, or treatment of poi-soning). ILE as an antidote was used initially to countercardiac arrest induced by a local anesthetic. An increasingnumber of case reports have documented the use of ILE forless or non-life-threatening indications. Under emergencyconditions, the amount of ILE given in a short period of timemay exceed, by many fold, the daily limit usually given forTPN. If ILE is being considered for a non-life-threatening con-dition, the risk/benefit profile should be part of thatconsideration.
The purpose of this literature review is to characterize theadverse effects that have been reported after administrationof ILE, irrespective of the purpose for ILE (i.e., nutrition, drugcarrier, or treatment of poisoning), to assist clinicians in arisk/benefit assessment when ILE treatment for poisoning isconsidered.
Methods
The American Academy of Clinical Toxicology initiated a col-laboration among the European Association of Poison Centersand Clinical Toxicologists, the Asia Pacific Association ofMedical Toxicologist, the Canadian Association of PoisonControl Centers, the American College of Medical Toxicology,and the American Association of Poison Control Centers toreview the evidence and produce recommendations on theuse of this novel therapy for drug toxicity. A working sub-group (the authors) formed to gather and review the evidenceregarding clinical adverse events associated with short-termuse of ILE. This subgroup comprised clinical experts and vari-ous stakeholders involved in the workgroup. It also includedtwo medical librarians who assisted in conducting the system-atic searches and the retrieval of potentially eligible publica-tions, as well as an epidemiologist with specificmethodological expertise in conducting systematic reviews.Subgroup members divulged all potential conflicts of interestsprior to inclusion in the workgroup. All communicationoccurred by email exchanges and by telephone conferences.
Two medical librarians created a systematic search strategyfor Medline (Ovid), which appears in the Appendix. The strat-egy comprised a combination of Medical Subject Headings,title/abstract key words, truncations, and Boolean operators,and included the concepts of ILE. The same search strategywas used for Embase (via Ovid), CINAHL (via EBSCO), BIOSISPreviews (via Ovid), Web of Science, Scopus, and theCochrane Library/DARE. All databases searches ran frominception to 15 December 2014.
In addition, conference abstracts from the EuropeanAssociation for Poison Centers and Clinical Toxicologists, and
the North American Congress of Clinical Toxicology (bothfrom 2000 to 2014) and abstracts from the Asia PacificAssociation of Medical Toxicology from 2007 to 2014 weresearched. Group members hand-searched previous reviewarticles. Group members also performed cross-referencing offull-text articles. No limits were applied for language, and can-didate studies in languages not known to any of the authorswere translated.
In summary, the criteria for publication inclusion in theevaluation of the effect of ILE include studies in humans andanimals who received ILE for any indication. Rapidly occurringreactions to ILE from the parenteral nutrition literature wereincluded. These cases are applicable to the evaluation of thesafety profile for ILE used for acute poisonings and are appro-priate to include in this review. Articles describing adverseevents associated with long-term use (defined as >14 days)of ILEs for TPN were excluded. Other exclusion criteria werenon-original data or animal studies with methods and resultsthat cannot be extrapolated or are uninterpretable. A com-plete methodology of the larger project of which this system-atic review is one part has been previously published anddescribes in detail all relevant methodological aspects such asclinical questions, search strategies, eligibility of publications,data extraction and summary, and assessment of the risk ofbias.[151] The Grading of Recommendations Assessment,Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology was usedto appraise the quality of the evidence.
Results
The initial search identified 36,903 citations. A total of 36,933citations were screened for relevance. Full text copies unavail-able for five citations. This selection yielded 789 full textarticles, of which 675 full text articles were excluded fromanalysis. Figure 1 lists the reasons for exclusion.
One hundred fourteen articles were analyzed for theirreport of acute adverse events that followed the thera-peutic use of ILE for TPN or for the treatment of poisoning.The articles were divided into human (87 articles) and ani-mal (27 articles) studies. We assigned each publication toan adverse event category to facilitate analysis. The finallevel of evidence was reported as per the GRADE sys-tem.[6–9] Table 1 summarizes the quality of the evidence.Most studies received low grades because they use animalmodels or are case reports of human patients. However,given the amount of animal data available and the ten-dency to rely on animal data for guidance in managingrare events that are difficult to randomize in humans, theywere also included for analysis.
Human studies
The human studies were categorized according to the pre-dominant effect of ILE administration: organ dysfunction(including cardiovascular, hematological, acute kidney injury[AKI], and metabolic acidosis); pulmonary effects (includingacute respiratory distress syndrome [ARDS], acute lunginjury [ALI], hypoxia, and ventilation/perfusion [V/Q]

Organ failure
Cardiovascular effectsTen articles describing adverse effects were categorized ascardiovascular (Table 2).[10–19] Fatal cardiac arrest and deathwere reported in neonates receiving IntralipidVR at 0.08–0.15 g/kg/h (0.4–0.75 mL/kg/h for ILE 20%) as part of TPN ther-apy.[13,20] It is unclear if the ILE administration caused thecardiac events or was simply associated with them.Pulmonary fat microemboli were found in the lung of oneinfant at autopsy.[13] One report described two adult patientswho received IntralipidVR for drug-induced shock in whichasystole immediately followed the ILE bolus in both cases.[11]Both patients had refractory hypotension and bradycardia
prior to ILE administration and the only conclusion that canbe drawn is that there was a temporal relationship betweenILE administration and onset of asystole. Kidney failure andcardiac arrest were reported in a TPN patient following theadministration of 2580 mL of ILE (10 and 20%) over 24 h.[12]
Abel et al. studied 19 adult patients divided into twogroups following uncomplicated isolated coronary arterybypass surgery.[10] One treatment group received a constant60-min infusion of 2 mL/min of soy oil emulsion (20%IntralipidVR ) while the second group received 20% Intralipid at1 mL/min for 1 h followed by an increase to 2 mL/min for anadditional hour. Patients receiving the constant 2 mL/mininfusion (averaging 5.25 mg/kg/min) had lower cardiac outputand higher pulmonary wedge pressure than patients startingat 1 mL/min. No significant hemodynamic changes or adverseside effects occurred in the 1 mL/min group.[10] The authorsconcluded that the rate should not exceed the maximumclearance rate of 1 mL/min averaging 2.67 mg/kg/min in thestudy population. Marfella et al. studied the effect of 10% ILEplus heparin (to stimulate lipoprotein lipase activity) on car-diac repolarization in a controlled, crossover study with 32healthy non-obese subjects.[15] Compared with saline, ILEplus heparin increased blood pressure, heart rate, QTc disper-sion, and plasma concentrations of epinephrine and free fatty

acids. The authors suggested that the increased plasma cat-echolamine level could have been the mechanism by whichILE affected cardiac repolarization. Eighteen critically illpatients (stratified by disease – 10 with severe sepsis andwith eight with ARDS) were randomized to receive TPN overeither 6 h or 24 h.[17] In the ARDS group with rapid infusion,a decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance and systemic vas-cular resistance occurred, while there was an increase in car-diac index. The authors attributed these effects to ILEadministration and concluded that linoleic acid administra-tion, regardless of infusion rate, may be unwanted in patientswith pulmonary organ failure. One patient experienced tam-ponade from TPN infused into the pericardium.[18] After majorgastrointestinal surgery, 20 patients were randomized toLiposynTM II or IntralipidVR .[19] No cardiovascular events werenoted. Liposyn II is a 50% soy/50% safflower oil emulsion.
Smyrniotis et al. studied nine patients with pancreatitis andARDS who were randomized to receive either long-chain tria-cylglycerols (LCT) or LCT/medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCT)alternately for 24 h in a crossover trial.[16] An example of LCTis IntralipidVR , while LipofundinVR represents a LCT/MCT mixture.When comparing the two treatment conditions, there was atransient higher mean pulmonary artery pressure from 28 to35 mm Hg during LCT infusion (p<0.05) and a transient highercardiac output from 8.8 to 9.5 L/min during LCT/MCT infusion(p<0.05). In an observational cohort, 12 patients (5 volunteers,7 critically ill) received IntralipidVR 2.1 mL/min for 4 h (500 mLtotal volume).[14] All of the critically ill patients experienced asignificant rise in cardiac output (5.8–6/7 L/min) and anincrease in pulmonary vascular resistance (64.7–131.9 dyne/sec/cm5). No adverse effects on hemodynamics were reported.
Hematological effectsFour articles described hematological effects after administra-tion of TPN containing lipid.[21–24] McGrath and associatesdescribed a patient in whom intravascular hemolysis devel-oped following an infusion of 500 mL of IntralipidVR 10% over2 h.[24] For 3 weeks, the patient had received the same dailyamount infused over 8 h without any symptoms. The reactionto the faster administration indicated that the reaction waslikely due to the rate of infusion. The authors speculated thatIntralipidVR might cause changes in the phospholipid compos-ition of the red cell membrane; or alternatively, a product ofIntralipidVR breakdown (e.g., lysolecithin) might have acted asa direct hemolysin. Two other author groups reportedthrombocytopenia in the setting of lipid administration forTPN.[22,25] Geib and colleagues described the emergence ofdisseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), which had afatal outcome.[21] Low and Ryan determined that a dosingerror in a premature infant resulted in persistent hyponatre-mia (for 5 days), elevated liver enzymes, and intraventricularhemorrhage.[23]
Acute kidney injurySix articles focused on adverse effects classified underAKI.[12,21,26–29] Three of them involved the use of ILE forpoisoning,[21,26,28] and three described patients receivingTPN.[12,27,29] AKI requiring continuous renal replacement
therapy (CRRT) was noted in a patient who received 20% ILEfor 18 h as treatment for tricyclic antidepressant overdose.[26]A serum creatinine was not reported. AKI occurred in three ofnine patients receiving various doses of 20% IntralipidVR foroverdose of various cardiotoxic medications, though AKI wasnot defined and no laboratory markers were reported.[21] AKIdeveloped in an 47-year-old female after IntralipidVR adminis-tration in the setting of diltiazem poisoning.[28] A serum cre-atinine was not reported.
Crook reported AKI in a patient who received 2580 mL ofILE (combined dose for 10% and 20% ILE) over 24 h.[12] Anelevation in blood urea nitrogen from 7 to 28 mg/dL wasdetected in a premature infant after an iatrogenic overdoseof IntralipidVR intended for TPN.[27] No change in serum cre-atinine was observed. In the largest of the reports, reducedglomerular and tubular function, manifested by increasedurine protein markers, was detected in 50 premature infantsreceiving TPN, including 0.5 g/kg/day (equivalent to 2.5 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE) of a lipid emulsion that was not specific-ally described.[29] The two groups were significantly differentat baseline in this non-randomized, observational study. 80%of the neonates in the TPN group were born at 28–30 weeksgestation; 80% of the enterally-fed infants were older than 30weeks. Likewise, the mean birth weight for the enteral groupwas 30% higher than the mean birth weight of the TPNgroup. Mothers of the TPN-fed babies were more likely tohave hypertension or eclampsia.
Metabolic acidosisTwo articles addressed metabolic acidosis after ILE administra-tion.[21,30] One case series reported metabolic acidosis inone of nine patients being treated with ILE in response todrug-induced cardiotoxicity.[21] The magnitude of this acid-osis and the amount of lipid received were not reported.Fairchild and associates described the clinical course of a pre-term infant who received an overdose of IntralipidVR 20%(24 g/kg or 250 mL) over 60 min.[30] The child had laboratoryvalues of a pH of 7.25, a PCO2 of 35 mm Hg, and a PaO2 64of mm Hg, which improved with administration of sodiumbicarbonate, 2 mEq/kg. The patient’s oxygen saturation was92%, with evidence of ARDS. It is unclear how, or if, ILEadministration and the metabolic acidosis were related.
Pulmonary adverse effects
26 articles addressed pulmonary adverse effects, includingARDS, ALI, hypoxia, and V/Q mismatch (Table 3).[14,16,17,19,21,26,30–49] Six of these cases were reported inthe context of rescue ILE, while the remaining 20 were in thecontext of TPN. The articles reporting ARDS after administra-tion of ILE for poisoning describe a total of ninecases.[26,34,37,40,50] All patients were critically ill prior toreceiving rescue ILE, so the authors could not implicate ILE asa single direct causative factor in development of ARDS. Fourof the TPN articles cited or speculated a mechanism ofIntralipidVR -induced ARDS in which fatty acid precursors to ara-chidonic acid resulted in inflammatory cascade and prosta-glandin production.[16,35,45,51] One patient of particular

interest was a 68-year-old man who developed ARDS anddied after receiving a first dose of lipid for TPN.[31] Anotherarticle described a premature infant who received an uninten-tional overdose of almost 30 mL/kg of 20% IntralipidVR over1.75 h and then became dusky and hypoxic.Echocardiography demonstrated pulmonary hypertension.The effect was transient and self-resolved, so TPN with ILEwas eventually resumed.[46]
Several articles specifically addressed V/Q mismatch as acomplication of ILE.[17,36,44] The earliest one describes eightpreterm infants who died after administration ofIntralipidVR .[36] The dose did not exceed 3 g/kg/day (15 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE). Signs of lipid deposits could be seen as earlyas 4 h after the first infusion. At autopsy, the lungs of thesebabies were found to have significantly greater lipid depositsthan a matched group of infants who had not received ILE.One of the eight infants died within 3 days after ILE adminis-tration. Another child presented with perfusion mismatch 4 hafter cardiac arrest induced by a local anesthetic.[44] Thedose of ILE given was 3 g/kg/h (15 mL/kg/h of 20% ILE)instead of 0.125 g/kg/h, as recommended by the AmericanSociety for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN).Nonetheless, the causes of this child’s pulmonary dysfunctionare likely multifactorial.[52] A prospective controlled random-ized crossover study of 10 ARDS and eight septic adultpatients reported an increased prostaglandin/thromboxaneratio matching and an increase in pulmonary shunting witheither slow (24 h) or rapid (6 h) ILE infusion given for nutri-tional support at rates of 0.050–0.054 g/h (0.25–0.27 mL/h for20% ILE) over 24 h or 0.2–0.217 g/h (1–1.09 mL/h for 20% ILE)over 6 h.[51] The authors of this study recommended cautionin using ILE in patients with pulmonary disease. In a prospect-ive, observational cohort of 12 patients receiving TPN, allpatients experienced an increase in VO2 (oxygen consump-tion) and in VCO2 (carbon dioxide excretion) (19% and 17% inhealthy volunteers; 31% and 37% in critically ill patients).[14]No adverse effects on pulmonary gas exchange or bloodgases were reported. Conversely, three articles cited noadverse pulmonary effects from lipid used for TPN.[19,33,41]Forty-one very-low-birth weight neonates were randomizedto either 1 g/kg/day over 24 h with subsequent increasingdoses (n¼ 15), the same intervention over 16 h (n¼ 14), or4 g/kg/day over 24 h (n¼ 12). The various regimens and ratesof infusion had no effect on blood pH or alveolar-arteriolaroxygen diffusion gradient.[33] Following major gastrointes-tinal surgery, Tomassetti and associates randomized 20patients to receive IntralipidVR or LiposynTM II for TPN. Noadverse respiratory events were reported.[19] Partridge andcolleagues found no significant difference in diffusion of car-bon monoxide in three normal, fasting volunteers whoreceived 200 mL of 20% IntralipidVR over 30 min.[41]
Hypersensitivity and allergic adverse effects
Eight articles addressed hypersensitivity, a reaction with anincidence of less than 1% in clinical trials (Table4).[31,53–58] Published reports of hypersensitivity involve1–3 cases and include adult and pediatric patients.
Reaction severity includes diffuse pruritus[56]; diffuse urti-caria and dyspnea[55]; urticarial rash[54,59]; skin blister-ing[53]; and diffuse erythema, shortness of breath, andtachypnea with subsequent development of ARDS anddeath.[31] In most cases, the reactions resolved when ILEwas stopped and without treatment with antihistaminesand/or glucocorticoid therapy. One report indicated hyper-sensitivity to ILE containing LCT in three cancer patients.Re-exposure to LCT and exposure to marginally differentformulations of MCT solutions without soybean lecithinwere well tolerated.[57] One out of 48 patients receivingILE rescue was reported to have bronchospasm afteradministration.[60] In the study by Tomassetti et al., men-tioned above, no adverse allergic events were reported intwenty patients who were randomized to receiveIntralipidVR or LiposynTM II for TPN after major gastrointes-tinal surgery.[19]
Vascular occlusion
PriapismFive articles addressed priapism (Table 5).[61–65] Klein andcolleagues reported the development of priapism in twopatients after infusion of 500 mL of IntralipidVR 20% orLiposynTM (a safflower oil emulsion) during long-term TPNtherapy.[63] Hebuterne and associates described their man-agement of a man who experienced priapism as a reaction toparenteral nutrition, and summarized four other cases frompreviously published articles.[64] Chapuis and Stratt reportedpriapism in a 70-year-old man who received 1500 mL ofIntralipidVR 20% daily following emergency surgery.[62]Priapism occurred at the end of his daily infusion on the 34thday of TPN therapy. While this interval exceeded the criterionfor the article selection process, it is reasonably likely that thisadverse effect may be attributable to a single infusion of ILEand not to the cumulative dosage of the previous 34 days.The rate of infusion was not reported. Collectively, these fivearticles present eight cases of priapism associated with TPN.Half of them had received heparin in addition to ILE. Thereaction occurred under a range of circumstances: at a widerange of intervals (45 min to 11 days) and doses (between500 and 1500 mL daily).
Deep vein thrombosis/phlebitis/coagulation biomarkersFour articles addressed DVT in a context that could apply tothe use of ILE in toxicology.[21,66–68] Phlebitis was devel-oped at the site of ILE administration shortly after the onsetof infusion during resuscitation from a diphenhydramine poi-soning; DVT was confirmed on a return visit.[66] Geib and col-leagues diagnosed DVT in 3 of 9 patients who received ILEfor poisoning. Two of them received a bolus with a subse-quent infusion, and one patient received three boluses. Thetotal doses of ILE were not reported.[21] In a prospective,observational cohort study in patients receiving TPN,Altomare and co-workers found that tissue plasminogen acti-vator concentrations were significantly lower in a groupreceiving 500 mL ILE over 5–6 h than in a control group.[67]

Fat embolismSix articles addressed fat embolism in patients receivingTPN.[13,20,69–72] The majority occurred after at least 7 daysof therapy. No cases were associated with administration ofILE in the treatment of poisoning. It is unknown if the risk offat embolism occurs with each infusion or is a cumulative risk.
CVVHF circuit and ECMO line interferenceThree case reports or series described line complica-tions.[40,73,74] Rodriguez et al. described a 26-year-old manwith refractory hypotension and bradycardia following anintentional overdose of amlodipine, metoprolol, and lisinopril.He received a bolus of ILE 20% followed by a continuous
infusion after other treatments had failed.[74] He continuedto deteriorate, and he underwent continuous veno-venoushemofiltration. Lipemic blood appeared immediately in theCVVHF filter, and the filter become completely obstructedand unusable. The patient died despite ongoing resuscitationefforts. Buck and colleagues conducted a prospective studythat identified nine neonates who received ILE for nutritionand were on simultaneous extracorporeal membrane oxygen-ation (ECMO). Five patients received ILE through the ECMOcircuit and four patients received ILE through a separate line.All five patients receiving ILE through the ECMO circuit devel-oped clots in the circuit. Two of the four patients in the IVaccess group developed blood clots, though it is not men-tioned if clotting in the circuit occurred.[73]

Infection susceptibility and inflammation adverse effects
Nine articles discussed the adverse effect of immune modula-tion in the context of ILE administration (for rescue therapy inonly one case) (Table 6).[19,21,22,32,75–79] Battistella andassociates conducted a prospective, randomized trial of 57trauma patients randomized to receive 20% ILE or no ILE aspart of the TPN during the first 10 days of TPN. The groupthat received ILE had a higher rate of infectious complica-tions.[32] This scenario may not apply to the short courses ofILE for acute poisoning. In acute poisoning, treatment withILE seldom continues for many days, although Agarwala and
colleagues describe a patient with a massive and severe ami-triptyline overdose treated with ILE at 18 mL/h for a total of19 days with no complication other than lipemia.[26]
In a study of the effect on neutrophil function, Cury-Boaventura and colleagues gave volunteers a single infusionof 500 mL of a 20% soybean oil over 6 h.[76] The obtained-blood sample before, immediately after, and 18 h after infu-sion, and then cultured lymphocytes and neutrophils for 0,24, or 48 h after sampling. Compared with samples takenprior to ILE infusion, samples taken immediately after the endof ILE infusion had decreased levels of lymphocytes and neu-trophils. The authors pointed to mitochondrial membrane

depolarization and nucleus lipid accumulation to explain celldeath, which occurred without alteration in reactive oxygenspecies (ROS) production. This presumed mechanism mightenhance patients’ susceptibility to infections. The cell deathpercentage increased from less than 5% immediately afterinfusion to 15% at 24 h. The decrease in lymphocyte prolifer-ation was greater immediately following infusion than at 18 hafterward.[76]
Liang and colleagues gave a patient 500 mL of an ILE 10%for 2 days (total dose, 1 L) for nutritional support followingingestion of a corrosive agent, which caused an esophagealinjury.[22] He experienced an acute catatonia, mutismepisode associated with ecchymosis. Severe thrombocyto-penia (platelet count of 11,000 cells/lL) and leukopenia(1500/cells/lL) were reported. All symptoms and types ofcytopenias resolved within 24 h after discontinuation of theILE infusion. The hematology team eliminated other possiblecauses such as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, disse-minated intravascular coagulation, and hemolysis. The specu-lative mechanism was N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptorhyperactivity at a high plasma dilution of ILE (1:80 to 1:5).A dose of 50 mL/h for 10 h (500 mL/day) would yield dilutionof 1:70.
In a randomized crossover trial of patients receiving LCT orLCT/MCT TPN, Waitzberg and co-workers observed that LCTalone had decreased neutrophil bacterial killing activity com-pared with LCT/MCT (p< 0.01), without any difference inphagocytosis index, chemotaxis, spontaneous migration, oroxidative metabolism.[79] In a separate observational cohort,Fraser and associates found decreased monocyte function(chemotaxis) following administration of IntralipidVR .[78]
A patient being treated with ILE for rescue therapy byGeib and colleagues developed sepsis but survived. The asso-ciation between ILE and sepsis is not described, and it is
unclear whether ILE played a causative role.[21] Tomassettiand associates reported no infection susceptibility adverseevents in 20 patients who were randomized to receiveIntralipidVR or LiposynTM II for TPN following major gastrointes-tinal surgery.[19]
Ebbert and colleagues collected 103 TPN bottles at thecompletion of 5–12 h infusions and 5–10 mL samples and cul-tured them to measure bacterial contamination.[77] Almost8% of the samples were positive for various bacterial contam-inants. None of the patients who received the contents ofthose bottles experienced bacteremia.
Fat overload syndrome, hypertriglyceridemia, lipemia,hyperamylasemia, pancreatitis, cholestasis
Fat overload syndrome, hypertriglyceridemia, lipemia,hyperamylasemia, pancreatitis, and cholestasis are among themost commonly reported adverse effects associatedwith ILE rescue and TPN therapy (Table 7). Of the 41 articlesthat describe these effects, 33 were from TPN[12,14,15,19,20,23,24,27,30,33,41,47,72,73,80–98] and eightwere from ILE rescue therapy for over-dose.[21,26,28,37,60,99–101] IntralipidVR 20% was the mostcommon formulation used in the articles that reported thetype of lipid (27/38). In most cases, the laboratory abnormal-ities were transient and did not appear to play a role in thepatient’s outcome. Most of the patients who died were neo-nates or premature infants, or had been on long-term TPNtherapy. It is unclear what role, if any, the laboratory abnor-malities contributed to mortality when ILE was used in themanagement of a poisoning. Eight articles addressed fat over-load syndrome, a constellation of many of the isolated com-plications reported and generally accompanied by

intravascular lipid deposition in organs such as the liver, kid-ney, or brain (found at autopsy).[12,72,89,90,102–104]
Animal studies
The animal studies reported in the literature were arrangedinto the following categories: organ failure (including cardiac,hematological, fat overload syndrome, hypertriglyceridemia/pancreatitis/lipemia); pulmonary (including acute respiratorydistress syndrome [ARDS], hypoxia, and ventilation/perfusion(V/Q) mismatch); and infection susceptibility (including sepsisand systemic inflammatory response syndrome [SIRS]).
Organ dysfunction adverse events
Cardiac effectsOne study addressed the cardiac and circulatory effects of ILE(Table 8).[107] In a study of cardiac arrest resulting from hyp-oxia (not poisoning), rabbits given ILE instead of normal
saline resuscitation had a much lower rate of return of spon-taneous circulation (1/11 versus 7/12).[107]
Hematologic effectsThree studies reported hematological effects related to ILEgiven as part of TPN.[108–110] A canine model demonstratedhemoglobin and hematocrit decrease after 21 days of soy-bean-oil fat emulsion administration.[110] A rabbit modeldemonstrated that thrombocytopenia occurred more oftenwith cottonseed oil than IntralipidVR soybean oil.[108] A separ-ate rabbit model found increased production of tissue factorfrom phagocytes with IntralipidVR infusion.[109]
Fat overload (hypertriglyceridemia, pancreatitis, andlipidemia)Three studies demonstrate a predictable rise in serum trigly-cerides but minimal organ damage in the pancreas and bil-iary system after short-term ILE.[111–113] In a dog model,

triglycerides rose after the administration of 10% lipid emul-sion and normalized quickly at a dose of 0.4 mg/kg/h(0.004 mL/kg/h), reflecting rapid clearance from the circula-tion. This was not observed at the higher dose of 0.8 mg/kg/h (0.008 mL/kg/h), which was associated with prolongedabnormalities in serum triglycerides and fatty acids.[114] In amurine model of high-dose, rapidly administered ILE 20%(ranging from 20 to 80 mL/kg over 30 min), all subjects hadelevations in triglycerides, serum amylase, and aspartate ami-notransferase; however, histological examination of the pan-creas and liver at autopsy was normal.[111] A lower-dosemodel in rats demonstrated a similar safety profile of ILEwith respect to pancreatitis, demonstrating no sucheffect.[113]
Pulmonary adverse events
ARDS and hypoxiaSeven studies reported pulmonary adverse effects in animalmodels, all related to TPN administration (Table 9).[115–120]A porcine model demonstrated elevated thromboxane B2 lev-els after ILE, which might be causative in pulmonary hyper-tension and correlate with the degree of hypoxemia.[119]Another porcine model demonstrated an association betweenILE and hypoxemia. [115] In a murine model, IntralipidVR infu-sion in rats with normal lungs produced structural changes inpulmonary vasculature, similar to those seen in conditionsthat produce pulmonary hypertension.[116] IntralipidVR admin-istration did not cause additional remodeling in the

pulmonary vasculature of guinea pigs. Infusion of unstablelipid emulsion might cause oxidative stress in the lungs. [118]Two canines models demonstrated no acute deleteriouseffects from 20% fat emulsion on pulmonary gas exchange,blood flow distribution, or edema.[117,120] After prolongedinfusion (3–7 days), superior vena cava thrombosis and pan-cytopenia occurred in a murine model, in addition to a granu-lomatous reaction in alveolar macrophages.[106]
Lung ventilation–perfusion (V/Q) mismatchTwo studies reported V/Q mismatch related to lipid adminis-tration as a component of TPN. A porcine model and a rabbitmodel both demonstrated a decrease in pO2 and paO2,respectively, following lipid infusions.[121,122] Both werethought to be related to prostaglandin mediation.
Immunologic effects
Infection susceptibilityTen studies in primarily murine and rabbit models examinedthe effects of short-term TPN (24 h to 4 days) on cell-medi-ated immune function and survival in response to a bacter-emia challenge (Table 10).[106,123–131] IntralipidVR 10–20%was the primary source of ILE used; however, total doses,rates of infusion, and duration of treatment varied signifi-cantly between the studies. These studies did demonstratemild to moderate impairments of reticuloendothelial cell-mediated function as well as somewhat higher rates of bac-teremia in the TPN groups.[124,125,127,128,130] Similareffects on insulin resistance, measured by endoplasmic reticu-lum stress, occurred with the administration of glucose andILE to rats.[105]
Special populations
The administration of lipid emulsion to children warrants spe-cial mention. Several reports of children receiving TPN werefound, in whom fat overload syndrome developed (headaches,fever, jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, respiratory distress, andspontaneous hemorrhage), particularly neonates. One reportdescribed a 3-year-old child who experienced pulmonaryinsufficiency, fever, lethargy, and tachycardia after the admin-istration of an excess of ILE (170 mL or 15 mL/kg total) forbupivacaine toxicity.[44] Another report described an acuteoverdose of ILE in a 5-day-old infant after 32 weeks of gesta-tion, who received 250 mL of 20% ILE and experienced respira-tory distress, metabolic acidosis, lethargy, and apnea;treatment was successful with double-volume exchange trans-fusion.[30] Hojsak and colleagues reported their managementof a 2-year-old child with short gut, who was given a novellipid formulation, SMOFlipids (20% soy, MCT, olive oil, and fishoil), in whom fat overload developed after ultra-rapid infusion(100 mL over 30 min [total 20 g, 1.75 g/kg/day, 3.6 g/kg/h]).[90]
Discussion
The first ‘‘safe’’ ILE was developed over 50 years ago as anutritional therapy, then later as a carrier for lipid-soluble
drugs.[1] Subsequently, ILE has been employed as a treat-ment in toxicology, often as a last resort for the most critic-ally ill poisoned patients. However, this therapy is notwithout adverse effects. Although lipid emulsions vary incomposition, the majority of case reports found in thisreview used 10 or 20% soybean oil emulsion, such asLiposynTM III, IntralipidVR , and NutrilipidVR . It is unclear if allILEs are associated with the same adverse effects. Newerlipid emulsions, which do not contain high omega-6 fattyacid oils, could have other adverse effects that are not wellrepresented in the literature.
Much of the published evidence about the adverse effectsof ILE comes from the early years of its use in nutrition ther-apy, when adverse effects were not uncommon. Adverseeffects are rare when the current nutritional guidelines for ILEuse are followed. The guidelines include a general limit of2 g/kg body weight/day (10 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE) and amaximum of 3g/kg (15 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE) without specialprecautions in adults. The rate of infusion typically should notexceed 0.11 g/kg/h (0.55 mL/kg/h of 20% ILE) with a max-imum of 0.125 g/kg/h (0.625 mL/kg/h of 20% ILE).[58] For neo-nates and infants, the dose should not exceed 4 g/kg/day(20 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE) and the rate not more than0.17 g/kg/h (0.85 mL/kg/h of 20% ILE). Relatively few adverseeffects associated with the treatment of various drug toxic-ities are reported in the clinical toxicology literature. However,given that the doses and infusion rates used in the toxicologysetting often exceed those used for nutritional therapy, thedearth of reported adverse effects may represent a reportingbias or inadequate follow-up.[1]
Adverse effects of ILE fall into two major categories basedon the duration of therapy. Immediate or short-term effectsoccur quickly, often within minutes to a few days (48 h), whiledelayed effects typically require much longer exposure to ILEtherapy, as occurs with outpatient parenteral nutrition ther-apy. With the exception of hypersensitivity/allergic reactions,immediate or short-term effects tend to be associated withthe dose and/or infusion rate of the ILE.
Some adverse effects of lipid emulsion appear to arise pri-marily in the setting of TPN and have not been reported withthe use of high-dose, short-term ILE. These include cholesta-sis, catheter-related complications (infection, phlebitis, andthrombosis), predisposition to sepsis and immune deficiency,and catatonia.[22,63,64,132] Although there are at least fourreports in the nutrition literature, no reports of these sequelaeattributed to ILE therapy for poisoning were found.Comparing different lipid emulsions for TPN in surgicalpatients, a systematic review and meta-analysis of random-ized controlled trials found no difference in adverse effects orhospital length of stay among SMOFlipidVR 20% and Lipoven20%, ClinOleic 20%, or MCT/LCT 20%.[133]
Adverse effects of ILE which have occurred either in thetreatment of poisoning, or in the TPN setting at faster infu-sion rates similar to those administered in poisoning, includehypoxia, ARDS, priapism, fat overload syndrome, and fatemboli. The spectrum of respiratory complications, rangingfrom simple hypoxia to ventilator-dependent respiratory fail-ure, has been repeatedly described in both settings. Thepotential for lipid administration to interfere with gas

exchange and create a ventilation–perfusion mismatch is sup-ported by a controlled study in ICU patients, which demon-strated a detrimental effect on bronchial inflammatorymarkers in patients with ARDS receiving ILE.[134] Critically ill-poisoned patients, especially those suffering cardiac arrest,often develop ARDS as an evolution of illness. It is impossibleto determine which of these reported effects is directly dueto ILE without a more controlled study design.
AKI as a result of ILE administration is controversial, andthe clinical relevance is unknown.[135] In a critically ill pois-oned patient, AKI can develop for a number of reasons,including decreased renal perfusion in the setting of a shockstate. When the origin of AKI is likely multifactorial, it isimpossible to determine what role, if any, ILE played in itsdevelopment. In addition, a transient rise in creatinine oftendoes not translate into a true negative outcome, such as theneed for CRRT. In the observational study by Tabel et al.,treated with TPN tended to be younger, smaller, sicker, andat higher risk of complications.[29] Because the infants onlyhad laboratory comparisons at 3 and 30 days, it was impos-sible to determine if the AKI began prior to the 14th day.However, it seems more likely than not that the modestchanges in biomarkers of renal function developed graduallythroughout the 30-day study period.
Differentiating adverse effects of TPN from those specific tolipid emulsion is challenging. Phlebitis is a problem with TPNdue to its very high osmolarity (>1100 mOsm).[136] ILE has alower risk from the osmolarity standpoint, as its osmolarity isabout 300 mOsm, compared with a maximum of 900 mOsmfor peripheral parenteral nutrition and >1500 mOsm for mostTPN products. An ex vivo study using six simulated real-lifeECMO circuits utilized a 3 mL/min infusion of IntralipidVR 20%with a constant flow rate of 200 mL/min and heparin doses tomaintain a clotting time greater than 200 seconds.[137]Agglutinations and layering occurred in all six circuits, andclotting occurred in five of them, especially at areas of stasis(ports), within 30 min after ILE infusion. In addition, increasedcircuit pressure caused the tubing to crack. The authors rec-ommended that ILE be administered via its own line duringECMO treatment of a neonate. This article was actuallyexcluded by the search criteria, but it is mentioned herebecause the model circuit mimicked real-life conditions.
The fat overload syndrome is a constellation of many ofthe isolated complications; the sudden onset of hypoxia,respiratory insufficiency, fever, lethargy, hepatosplenomegaly,jaundice, coagulopathy, and neurologic compromise, includ-ing altered mental status and seizures. Fat embolic complica-tions, both pulmonary and cerebral, are more commonlyreported in association with TPN than with rescue therapy forpoisoning (perhaps because rescue therapy is in its relativeinfancy). Complications which appear to be unique to high-dose, rapidly administered ILE continue to emerge. They havebeen reported in the context of inadvertent TPN error leadingto rapid infusion of a high dose, defined as exceeding theestimated maximum oxidation rate of 1.2–1.7 mg/kg/min (forILE 20%, this is 0.35–0.51 mL/kg/h or 8.6–12.24 mL/kg/day).The physiologic consequences of such doses can be expectedto be similar to those of rescue therapy. However, the paucityof human toxicological literature and the lack of necropsy
and lung examination in the animal studies on the use of ILEin poisoning make it impossible to evaluate the true risk offat emboli with ILE administration.
The risk of infection in patients receiving ILE is difficult toanticipate. Neutrophil and lymphocyte counts decreasealmost immediately after an ILE bolus, but it is unclear howthis effect translates to meaningful outcomes when treatingpoisoned patients.[76] Measurement of counts could also beaffected by dilution after bolus administration. Most of thehuman research on immunologic function as it relates to ILEcomes from studies that evaluated long-term effects, that is,from 4 to 14 days of therapy.[138] For most cases of poison-ing, treatment lasted less than 4 days, although at least onepoisoned patient received ILE for 19 days.[26] Overall,immune function seems to be most affected by the durationof ILE therapy, but the applicability of this observation to toxi-cological use is uncertain because the length of therapy isnot standard.
Patients at the extremes of age present challenges withdrug therapy, as do pregnant women. Prescribing informationfor ILE from the US Food and Drug Administration includes awarning of death reported in preterm infants following ILEadministration, with pulmonary intravascular fat accumulationnoted at autopsy.[58] One report indicated development ofhypertriglyceridemia without hypoxia in low-birth-weightinfants receiving 10% or 20% ILE at a maximum of 4 g/kg/day(20 mL/kg/day using 20% ILE) for 8 days [33]; however, mostreports involving neonates describe adverse pulmonaryevents.[30,39,42,43,46–49] Preterm infants appear to be par-ticularly susceptible to hypoxia associated with ILE-inducedhypertriglyceridemia during their first week of life.[42] Thecause of ILE-associated hypoxia might be a dose- and time-dependent increase in pulmonary vascular resistance inresponse to increased prostaglandin synthesis from higherfree fatty acid concentrations following ILE infusion, ratherthan hypertriglyceridemia itself.[43] Alterations in pulmonaryvascular resistance occur with short-term ILE doses of 1.5–3 g/kg/day (7.5–15 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE). Doses as low as 1 g/kg/day (5 mL/kg/day using 20% ILE) in premature infantsreduced arterial oxygen tension in a high percentage ofpatients.[47] Alveolar oxygen tension is reduced in full-terminfants receiving ILE 2 g/kg/day (10 mL/kg/day of 20% ILE).[48]Reduced transcutaneous PO2 also appears to be prominentfollowing ILE doses as small as 0.5 g/kg/day (2.5 mL/kg/day of20% ILE) given over 10 h (0.05 g/kg/h; 0.25 mL/kg/h with 20%ILE) in infants with underlying pulmonary disease.[39]
Disturbances of fat metabolism in elderly patients, includ-ing reduced skeletal muscle fat oxidation, may occur due tolower oxidative enzyme concentrations, inhibited fatty acidtransport into the mitochondria, or reduced activation of fattyacid transport.[139] Lipid oxidation during TPN, however,appears to be higher in elderly patients compared with mid-dle-aged people.[140] Capacity for fat oxidation and plasmaremoval of ILE appears to be as good in elderly men as inyoung men.[141] This suggests that elderly patients are nomore likely to develop hypertriglyceridemia or other problemsrelated to ILE clearance than younger patients. One casereport of ILE use for local anesthetic poisoning in a 91-year-old man indicated successful reversal of central nervous

Concerns about the use ofILE during pregnancy come primarily from adverse eventsassociated with a cottonseed oil emulsion that was removedfrom the market in 1965, but there are still at least tworemaining concerns.[143] ILE is used routinely at recom-mended doses and infusion rates for pregnant women requir-ing TPN. However, high ILE infusion rates (actual rates are notreported) may induce uterine contractions.[144] In addition, astudy evaluating the effect of TPN on the placenta reportedone case out of the 20 evaluated with placental fat depositsevident before fetal death occurred at 22 weeks’ gesta-tion.[145] Successful rescue ILE occurred in an 18-year-oldprimigravida patient at 38 weeks gestation with no reportedadverse effect.[146] Pregnant women are at increased risk oflocal anesthetic toxicity; thus there is potentially an increasedneed for ILE in pregnancy.[147]
Limitations
The search criteria and citation screening were designed tobe as inclusive as possible in order to estimate the clinicaladverse effects associated with ILE given in doses typicallyused to treat acute poisonings, but the studies included inthis systematic review were consistently of low or very lowquality according to GRADE criteria. Furthermore, includedstudies could have suffered from reporting bias, in that notall adverse effects reported were related to the use of ILE andthose that do occur were not always reported. Neonates andsmall children seem to be at higher risk of adverse events asreported in the TPN literature, however as the care of neo-nates has significantly changed in the last three decadessince these reports were published, it is unclear if the adverseevents reported are only associated with the administrationof ILE. The patient populations were also quite heterogeneousin terms of age and medical comorbidities, which limits gen-eralizability of the incidence and nature of adverse eventsassociated with the administration of ILE in the managementof poisonings. For example, gut malabsorption would be oflittle consequence to the use of ILE for TPN, but it could be amajor issue when treating patients who have been poisoned.Nonetheless, cohort and observational studies on adverseevents in the TPN setting that are applicable to clinical toxi-cology may answer the many questions which have arisen onthe risks of this therapy at various dosages and infusionrates.[76,138]
Conclusion
This systematic review reported adverse effects from ILEadministration, as reported from clinical settings and animalstudies, with a focus on those most generalizable to clinicaltoxicology. Because few publications describe adverse eventsfollowing antidotal use of ILE, the true incidence remains
unknown. Extrapolation from TPN cases suggests that adverseeffects might occur with the use of ILE for poisoning. Thepotential for significant adverse effects seems to be associ-ated with higher doses and rapid infusion rates. Therefore,the suggestions in many case reports and review articles thatlarge doses of ILE are safe for the purpose of reversal of drugtoxicity and may not pose a risk of immediate adverse eventsseems to be inaccurate or at the very least unproven. Furtherstudies in both the TPN setting and the poisoned patient willhopefully shed additional light on the risks of this therapy.
