Guidelines for the Use of Human Milk Fortifier in the NICU NUTRITIONAL MANAGEMENT OF SUSPECTED COW’S MILK PROTEIN ALLERGY DOCUMENT TYPE: GUIDELINE Purpose To create a guideline which includes a systematic way of managing suspected Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) for consistency of care across disciplines. The purpose of this document is to provide evidence-based and easy to understand information for health care providers so they can determine the feasibility and success of the diet. Individual clinical assessment should be applied throughout treatment. Background CMPA is a common food allergy in early childhood with an incidence of 2-3% in the first year of life. The immunological response to the food allergen can be classified as immunoglobulin (Ig) E- mediated, non-IgE-mediated or mixed. IgE-mediated reactions are typically immediate with onset occurring within 30 minutes of ingestion of cow’s milk and non-IgE-mediated reactions are typically delayed reactions often occurring hours or days after food ingestion. Non-IgE mediated CMPA commonly presents in infants as gastrointestinal manifestations. A small percentage of infants (0.05%) who are exclusively breastfed may also develop CMPA through transfer of cow’s milk protein from mother’s diet into maternal breastmilk. The treatment for CMPA is the elimination of cow’s milk protein in the infant’s diet or in the mother’s diet of an infant receiving maternal breastmilk. For infants with suspected CMPA who are receiving exclusive maternal breastmilk it is recommended that the mother follow a cow’s milk free diet. The recommendation for formula fed infants with CMPA is to feed a semi-elemental formula (SEF). For those infants who do not respond to the use of SEF, a trial of an elemental formula (EF) is recommended. Infants Receiving Maternal Breast Milk Mothers of infants who are suspected to have CMPA will be asked to eliminate cow’s milk and cow’s milk protein containing products from their diet. Guidelines for a dairy-free (DF) diet will be provided for mothers and successful initiation of the diet should be confirmed by the team (see appendix for parent handout). Mothers will label their expressed breastmilk (EBM) “Dairy Free” once successfully on the diet. Pasteurized donor EBM is not suitable for infants with suspected CMPA. During the mother’s initiation of a DF diet, the infant may continue to receive breastmilk if symptoms are mild (see appendix for classification examples). If symptoms are moderate to severe (see appendix) they may need to go directly onto SEF while mom establishes a DF diet prior to re-introduction of DF maternal breastmilk. Infants may require SEF for a period of several days to a maximum of 2 weeks for symptoms to resolve. Timing for the reintroduction of DF breastmilk in these cases will be based on the severity of symptoms. Due to cross-reactivity between CMPA and soy allergy, a soy free diet may be considered in combination with the DF diet if the baby continues to have reactions to maternal breastmilk. This should be determined on an individual basis due to the very restrictive nature of a soy and DF diet. Consideration of a SEF should be made for infants who continue to have symptoms even with successful maternal elimination of dairy and soy, or where soy free diet is not feasible (see appendix for suggested timeline).

NUTRITIONAL MANAGEMENT OF SUSPECTED COW’S MILK PROTEIN ALLERGY DOCUMENT TYPE: GUIDELINE Infants Receiving Human Milk Fortifier The use of powder human milk fortifier (HMF) is contraindicated for preterm infants suspected to have CMPA as it is a cow’s milk-based additive. When the preterm infant tolerates DF EBM, the addition of other hypoallergenic products and suitable vitamins / mineral supplements will be necessary to meet the infant’s nutritional needs. For example, SEF powder may be added to DF EBM to concentrate the calories. The determination of additives, modules and vitamins and minerals will be individualized based on the infant’s gestational age, weight, and intake. Consult a Dietitian for review of nutritional adequacy of the preterm infant’s intake. Infants Receiving Formula Feeds Term infants who are suspected to have CMPA while feeding milk-based formula will be switched to an SEF such as Nutramigen A+. SEF are hypoallergenic with its protein source coming from hydrolyzed casein; it is unlike Goodstart Formula which is only partially hydrolyzed and not appropriate for CMPA. If the infant continues to show symptoms once established on SEF, then a change to an EF, such as PurAmino A+, is recommended. For preterm infants who are formula fed and are suspected to have CMPA, the recommendation is to change to a SEF. However SEF is a term formula, therefore will not be nutritionally adequate for preterm infants. Preterm infants may need to be advanced to 81 kcal/100mL and/or have added protein, vitamins and minerals to better meet their nutritional needs. Consult a Dietitian for review of nutritional adequacy of the infant’s intake. Standard Vitamin And Mineral Supplements 1) Term Infants on DF EBM or breastfeeding: Vitamin D 400 International Units daily 2) Term infants on SEF or EF: Vitamin D 400 International Units daily (if intake less than 1000mL per day) 3) Preterm infants on DF EBM + SEF or EF fortification: Requires individual assessment 4) Preterm infants on SEF or EF: Requires individual assessment Preparing For Discharge Home For formula fed infants who meet the criteria for Home Enteral Nutrition Program (HEN) or At Home Program (AHP), an application for funding can be submitted prior to discharge home. Of note, this process may take 7-10 days before approval is granted and is not guaranteed. If an infant does not meet the criteria for these funding agencies, information on purchasing the formula outside of the hospital can be given to the family by a Dietitian. Maternal diet restrictions should continue until the infant is no longer receiving breastmilk or until the cow’s milk protein allergy is challenged, usually around 1 year of age (1 year corrected for preterm infants). If stable, an earlier trial of cow’s milk may be assessed individually by the pediatrician. A cow’s milk free diet can sometimes be indicated in infants up to 2 years of age and will need to be monitored on an individualized basis.

  • TITLE of STUDY Milk Allergy Is a Very Common Problem in Children. Milk
    TITLE OF STUDY Milk Desensitization and Induction of Tolerance in Children Milk Allergy is a very common problem in children. Milk-induced symptoms effect up-to 20% of children, with detrimental effects on nutrition during critical periods of growth. Moreover, approximately 2-5% of children make IgE antibodies against cow’s milk, which are responsible for severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. Milk is the second most common food causing life-threatening anaphylaxis in North America and Europe, and the most common food to cause life- threatening symptoms world-wide. Due to the ubiquitous nature of dairy products in our diet, milk is extremely difficult to avoid. Treatment of milk allergy is currently based on strict avoidance, and patients must carry injectable adrenalin (e.g. Epipen). Our study will assess a novel and potentially life-changing therapy, by actively treating milk allergy with Oral Immunotherapy. This may allow patients to safely consume dairy products. Treatment with oral-immunotherapy has been piloted in the USA and Europe, but there is no current research into milk- immunotherapy in Canada, depriving our population of a potential cure for this very common problem. We propose to perform a well-defined clinical study, using proper control groups and immunological measures to properly understand the ideal patients and the safest and most efficacious methodologies. If successful, this study will clearly increase the margin of safety for children and young adults who suffer from life-threatening milk allergy. It can also increase the consumption of dairy products within this population, providing nutritional benefits including improved bone mineralization and growth.

  • Milk Allergy
    Allergic reactions Allergic reactions are severe adverse reactions that occur when the body’s immune system overreacts to a particular allergen.These reactions may be caused by food, insect stings, latex, medications and other substances. In Canada, the nine priority food allergens Milk are peanuts, tree nuts, sesame seeds, milk, eggs, seafood (fish, crustaceans and shellfish), soy, wheat One of the nine most and sulphites (a food additive). common food allergens What are the symptoms of an allergic reaction? When someone comes in contact with an allergen, the symptoms of a reaction may develop quickly and rapidly progress from mild to severe. The most severe form of an allergic reaction is called anaphylaxis. Symptoms can include breathing difficulties, a drop in blood pressure or shock, which may result in loss of consciousness and even death. A person experiencing an allergic reaction may have any of the following symptoms: • Flushed face, hives or a rash, red and itchy skin • Swelling of the eyes, face, lips, throat and tongue • Trouble breathing, speaking or swallowing • Anxiety, distress, faintness, paleness, sense of doom, weakness • Cramps, diarrhea, vomiting • A drop in blood pressure, rapid heart beat, loss of consciousness How are food allergies and severe allergic reactions treated? Currently there is no cure for food allergies. The only option is complete avoidance of the specific allergen. Appropriate emergency treatment for anaphylaxis (a severe food allergy reaction) includes an injection of adrenaline, which is available in an auto-injector device. Adrenaline must be administered as soon as symptoms of a severe allergic reaction appear.The injection must be followed by further treatment and observation in a hospital emergency room.
