Learning About Total Parenteral Nutrition in Newborns What is total parenteral nutrition (TPN)? Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is a way to give nutrients to your baby through a tube (catheter). This tube is inserted into a vein. The tube sends liquid nutrients directly into the blood. The blood carries the nutrients to your baby's tissues and organs. The nutrients don't have to go through the digestive system. TPN is used if your baby can't get enough nutrition by mouth or through a feeding tube. Your baby can get TPN as long as needed. Your baby may need special care, such as being in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

TPN is made up of three major components--protein (amino acids), carbohydrates (dextrose), and fats (lipids), which are essential to adequate nutrition.sage also changes with new research and drug development. For example, in the early 1990s home care nurses routinely cared for patients with AIDS wasting who were receiving TPN.

- Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) supplies all daily nutritional requirements. TPN can be used in the hospital or at home. Because TPN solutions are concentrated and can cause thrombosis of peripheral veins, a central venous catheter is usually required.he amount of regular insulin given (added directly to the TPN solution) depends on the plasma glucose level; if the level is normal and the final solution contains 25% dextrose, the usual starting dose is 5 to 10 units of regular insulin/L of TPN fluid.
