The purpose of this project is to evaluate the case characteristics of patients who receive intravenous lipid emulsion therapy. A secondary objective is to determine the mortality in this critically ill population of individuals.~Previous literature to date has focused on animal studies or has been primarily limited to case reports or small case series. This prospectively collected data set will permit a much more detailed description of the use of lipid, its potential benefits, and potential harms.
