Frailtry in chronic liver disease : the overlooked side

Frailty is more common in children with chronic liver disease than previously recognised, and it may signal a higher risk of future complications. This includes liver-related events, mortality, and other adverse outcomes.

Frailtry in chronic liver disease : the overlooked side

Frailty in children with chronic liver disease is more than a clinical label, it has roots and consequences.
Factors such as malnutrition, reduced muscle mass, physical inactivity, and systemic inflammation contribute to frailty, which in turn can lead to higher risk of hepatic decompensation, healthcare utilization, post-transplant complications, and reduced quality of life.

Frailtry in chronic liver disease : the overlooked side

Frailty isn’t just an adult condition. Nearly half of children with chronic liver disease in this study were frail, most commonly those with decompensated disease. Frailty predicted worse outcomes, including higher risk of new hepatic complications, infections, and death.
Early detection could help clinicians identify vulnerable patients and guide multi-disciplinary interventions focused on nutrition, muscle mass, and physical function.

🩺 Rescue gastro-jejunal (G-J) tube
🔗 https://doi.org/10.1002/jpn3.70117?utm_source=fb_page&utm_medium=Journal+of+Pediatric+Gastroenterology+and+Nutrition&utm_campaign=publer

Children with neurological impairment or severe reflux often rely on G-J tubes for feeding — but tube dislodgement or unavailability can interrupt care.

This innovative case report presents a temporary G-J tube technique using a Foley catheter and nasojejunal extension, enabling continued jejunal feeding without anesthesia or specialized equipment.

A simple, adaptable approach for clinicians in resource-limited settings.

This statement emphasizes how electronic health records (EHRs) can transform care in pediatric gastroenterology by making evidence-based guidelines actionable.

Highlights:
✔️ Define patient populations using standardized code sets
✔️ Embed decision support tools within EHR workflows
✔️ Identify validated outcome measures, including PROMs
✔️ Strengthen data infrastructure to support quality and research

A forward-looking vision for integrating technology and clinical care to deliver better outcomes for children.
