Parenteral nutrition: multidisciplinary management
Abstract
Parenteral nutrition may be needed to give nutritional support to patients with severe acute (temporary or reversible) or chronic intestinal failure. Parenteral nutrition needs to be given only by health workers trained in its use otherwise life-threatening complications (especially sepsis) may occur.
