Pivot 1.5 CAL is peptide-based complete, balanced therapeutic nutrition for short- or long-term tube feeding for metabolically stressed surgical, trauma, burn, or head and neck cancer patients who could benefit from an immune-modulating enteral formula. For tube feeding. For sole-source or supplemental nutrition. Use under medical supervision.
Features
- Halal.
- Gluten-free.
- Volume: 8 oz
- Suitable for lactose intolerance.
- Provides 1.5 Cal/mL—concentrated calories for fluid-restricted patients.
- 1950 calories (1300 mL) provides at least 100% of the RDIs for 25 essential vitamins and minerals.
- Provides very high protein (93.8 g/L, 25% of calories) to support protein synthesis, tissue repair and wound healing.
- Elevated antioxidants vitamins C and E, selenium and beta-carotene to help reduce tissue and cell damage due to oxidative stress.
Immune support:
- Glutamine (inherent) (7.6 g/L) for GI-tract integrity and energy for immune cells.
- Arginine (13 g/L, 3.5% of calories) to support proliferation and function of immune cells.
- Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, 2.6 g/L; DHA, 1.1 g/L) to help modulate inflammation and support immune function.
Tolerance:
- Hydrolyzed, peptide-based protein system.
- Advanced blend of hydrolyzed protein, structured lipid, and prebiotics (scFOS) to promote absorption and tolerance.
- MCT/fish oil structured lipid, a well-tolerated7,8 and absorbed8 next generation fat to promote absorption of fatty acids.
- 1.8 g of scFOS/8 fl oz (7.5 g/L). scFOS are prebiotic soluble fibers that stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon.
