adult TPN
Adult TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition) is a medical method of providing all necessary nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a central vein. It is used when the digestive system cannot adequately absorb nutrients due to illness, surgery, or other conditions. TPN supplies a tailored mix of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals to ensure the body maintains strength and health. This approach bypasses the gastrointestinal tract entirely, allowing for precise nutrient delivery and supporting recovery or maintenance when normal eating isn't possible.
