Abstract:
This paper reported the results of prospective study on the effects of standard continuous total parenteral nutrition (S-TPN) and cyclic total parenteral nutrition (C-TPN) in 20 hospitalized patients with moderate catabolism. The study course continued for 20 days. The results were evaluated by 48 indexes, and all data were processed statistically. The study results showed that the effects of S-TPN and C-TPN on metabolism of glucose, protein and fat, immune functions, functions of vital organs, and body weight were about the same. The authors came to the conclusion that S-TPN is a good way of nutritional support for hospitalized patients, while C-TPN has its advantage for home use.
