| | Complications may be metabolic--relating to the nutritional formula--or nonmetabolic--due to faults in delivery techniques. | | | Severely malnourished patients who are being prepared for surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy for cancer are given TPN before and after treatment to improve and maintain their nutritional status. | | | A peripheral vein may be used for short periods, but longer periods of use with concentrated solutions can readily lead to thrombosis. |

| | Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition |
| | Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has been one of the most innovative techniques to be introduced into pediatrics in the last 50 years. | | | Children on tube feeding require a team approach to ensure appropriate nutrition (nutritionist), continuation of development of oromotor skills and intake of nutrients by mouth whenever possible (speech therapist), appropriate support of the equipment and ostomy site (ileostomy/colostomy nurse practitioner), and psychological support whenever necessary [34]. | | | Potential hazards include perforation of the stomach or intestine, and aspiration, which can prove fatal, especially in very young or compromised patients. |

| | Neonatology on the Web: Parenteral Nutrition for Neonates |
| | When a baby is on parenteral nutrition, our ultimate goal is to provide at least 100-110 cal/kg/day. | | | The serum levels in these babies are often 3 or greater at birth, and since their renal clearance of magnesium is poor during the first few days of life, they may accumulate magnesium given in the PN solution and reach even higher levels with no warning. | | | Parenteral nutrition (PN) allows us to meet an infant's requirements for growth and development when the infant's size or condition precludes enteral feedings. |
