Description

Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition (PPN) is often considered the stepchild of Parenteral Nutrition (PN), which is infused via a central venous catheter. Anecdotal reports suggest that interest in PPN is growing in the United States and that improvement in catheter design and injection techniques in Europe offer even greater potential to reduce complications such as injection phlebitis. Like PN, PPN contains dextrose, amino acids, electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals via a central venous catheter, but in smaller volumes. One of the recognized advantages of PPN is the relative ease with which peripheral access can be established. This can prevent delays in establishing nutritional support. PPNs are intended for short term use or replenishment. Bridge to intensive IV fluids or enteral nutrition, most often to maintain previously well-nourished non-hypermetabolic patients, or until more adequate nutrition is provided used In some cases, improper use can lead to infusion phlebitis or poor nutrient absorption. Conflicting recommendations from different organizations further complicate and confuse prescribing physicians. The purpose of this overview is to explain the PPN and the challenges its use presents to practitioners. The drug or drug is injected as a solution in a syringe and the ingredients enter the bloodstream directly, so actual drugs are rarely used. For ingested medicinal products, loss of components during the digestive process is to be expected. The need for less medication is not always reflected in the cost because of the price of the syringe and the fees of the nurse or doctor who administers the injection. Syringe, medicine, or liquid solution that must be mixed with essential nutrients, the need for a nurse, doctor, or someone who can manage the injections, and the overall task of delivering the nutrients or drugs that are actually injected. Costs can easily add up if you have to make multiple visits to your doctor or naturopath. There is always the risk of injuring skin or veins or damaging tissue. After many injections, there are physical side effects. There may be bruises and hidden or invisible scars. Parenteral nutrition means parenteral nutrition. “Parenteral” means “outside the digestive tract.” Enteral nutrition is delivered through a tube into the stomach and small intestine, while parenteral nutrition bypasses the entire digestive system from the mouth to the anus. Certain medical conditions may require short-term or long-term parenteral nutrition. Some people need it to supplement their diet, while others need to get all their calories intravenously. Partial Parenteral Nutrition (PPN) is given parenterally as a supplement to other types of nutrition. If you are eating but malnutrition persists, your healthcare provider may offer partial parenteral nutrition to replace the missing food or provide extra calories. Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) is complete nutrition given intravenously to people who have no use in their digestive system. TPN may be needed when certain conditions affect your ability to process food through your digestive tract and absorb nutrients, or when you need to stop using your digestive system for a while and let it recover. A major advantage of parenteral nutrition is that it gives the gastrointestinal system a chance to recover from serious illness or surgery. Partial parenteral nutrition is an important boost in helping the body overcome other challenges. For people with persistently impaired gastrointestinal function, or for very preterm and sick infants whose ability to eat normally has not yet developed, total parenteral nutrition can be life-saving.
