Quizplus · Accepted Answer

TPN is typically indicated for severely malnourished patients or those who cannot be fed through the GI tract, and for situations where long-term parenteral nutrition is required or nutrient requirements are high. However, TPN is not typically necessary for patients who are only moderately malnourished, as oral or enteral nutritional support may be sufficient. TPN may also not be appropriate for patients on fluid restrictions, as it typically provides a large volume of fluid.
